Hospital Clinical Experience
The student will be assigned to an inpatient clinical area. During this time the student should
apply principles of the midwifery model of care and provide maternal – newborn care. Direct
education, explanations and support for women are included in this experience. Rotation is required
in specialised clinical area such as labour and postpartum wards. Students are expected to complete
course requirments at the scheduled time and provide safe and effective midwifery care in a timely
manner.
