Course description

This supervised clinical practicum enables internationally educated midwives to integrate knowledge, skills, clinical judgment, and professional standards within Alberta midwifery practice. Participants provide supervised care across antenatal, intrapartum, postpartum, and newborn settings while developing competence in communication, documentation, consultation, referral, and transfer of care.
