Skills for Midwifery Practice Australian & New Zealand Edition

This text provides clear, easy-to-read guidance on more than 110 skills for midwifery students and midwives seeking to update their practice. Underpinned with the most recent evidence-based practice and research, the second edition walks the reader through general and basic skills in a sequential and logical manner, following a woman's journey through pregnancy, labour and birth, and postnatal care. With a focus on the performance of midwifery skills rather than on the theory of midwifery practice, Skills for Midwifery Practice Australia and New Zealand 2nd edition is an indispensable text to which students will return to again and again.
