Course description

This course will provide students with the opportunity to build their midwifery and nursing practice, knowledge, skills and clinical experience. The role of the graduate midwife/nurse as an effective team member of the multidisciplinary team will be critiqued. Clinical courses assist the health practitioner to develop advanced clinical skills including assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of care. Across the suite of clinical courses included in the Bachelor of Nursing/ Bachelor of Midwifery program students will develop evidence-based practice skills, beginning leadership skills and mentoring of less experienced students. This course will offer students up to 360 hours of professional experience placement. Operating within the appropriate student scope of practice, students must demonstrate competence on their clinical placement when assessed against the requirements of the placement assessment tool. To successfully pass this course students must meet all course requirements to demonstrate competence against all course learning outcomes including the recommended completion of all Midwifery Practice Experiences.
