MW4320 Clinical Skills 1
This is the first in the Clinical Skills course series, which are all on-site skills labs and workshops, coordinated with Midwifery Care and Clinical Seminar course content. The objective of the series is to develop the many skills, both hands-on and teaching, necessary to practice midwifery. Clinical Skills 1 builds on and amplifies some of the key skills first introduced in Midwifery Care Health Assessment and covers aseptic technique, medication administration, pregnant abdominal exam, venipuncture, urinalysis and further practice in vital signs. Students are introduced to the fundamentals of being a birth assistant in addition to completing a full-day neonatal resuscitation program (NRP) certification.
