BIRTHSPIRIT 'MIDWIFERY SKILLS FOR EMERGENCIES' INTENSIVE Midwives need to respond effectively to maternal and newborn emergencies not only within their scope of practice but also within the context of their practice setting. We work in a variety of environments ~ including birthing units and at home, predominantly with other midwives in support. Medical practitioners are seldom involved in primary care and rarely in low technology settings. The Birthspirit Intensive Midwifery Skills for Emergencies has been developed for the unique role of the midwife in New Zealand ~ that of an independent practitioner, irrespective of her employment status. Acknowledging the role medical practitioners play in the provision of emergency care, the Intensive reflects the reality that over 70% of women have a midwife as their Lead Maternity Carer and midwives attend almost 100% of births. Thus the midwife is the health professional most likely to be in attendance in any childbirth emergency. Midwifery Skills for Emergencies is a comprehensive refresher in the midwifery skills necessary during perinatal emergencies in primary care settings. It embraces the art and science of midwifery, providing evidence-based practice for safe and effective midwifery care in the absence of, or until, medical assistance is available.
