The New Midwifery by Lesley Ann Page
Being a midwife today requires not only good clinical skills but also a broad understanding of the social and emotional adaptation to birth, which a woman must go through. A midwife must be clinically skilled and able to bring "woman-centred" practice to life. This book explores all the issues, which a midwife may experience in applying her practical knowledge with sensitivity towards every individual woman's care, before, during and after birth. Building on the changes, which have occurred in midwifery in the past decade, "The New Midwifery" describes approaches to practice, which have now been drawn from experience, underpinned by theory and biological sciences. It will help midwives to build sensitive and supportive relationships, develop openness to individual needs, and be able to use science as a basis to practice.| SKU | Unavailable |
