This subject contains a 4 day Compulsory Residential School.
The aim of the MID441 Residential School is to provide simulation learning experiences for students, introducing them to safe, midwifery practice when providing woman-centred care to a woman during a normal pregnancy, labour/birth, and the postpartum period. The Graduate Diploma of Midwifery is a graduate entry to practice program where students, as Registered Nurses, are employed to practise as midwifery students as they study. Compulsory attendance and assessment of practice at the MID441 Residential School will ensure that the midwifery student is safe to practice in clinical maternity settings using women-centred principles to support women during a normal pregnancy, labour/birth and the postpartum period.
