SKILLS FOR MIDWIFERY PRACTICE AUSTRALIAN & NEW ZEALAND 2ND EDITION

This text provides clear, easy-to-read guidance on more than 110 skills for midwifery students and midwives seeking to update their practice.

Underpinned with the most recent evidence-based practice and research, the second edition walks the reader through general and basic skills in a sequential and logical manner, following a woman's journey through pregnancy, labour and birth, and postnatal care.
