Module Overview

It covers the basics of midwifery care including professional practice, normal anatomy and physiology of the female reproductive system, key concepts and philosophies of care, communication and care skills, antenatal care, normal labor and birth, postnatal care, neonatal care, and breastfeeding, as well as a brief introduction to medicines management in normal midwifery care.
