Take full responsibility for assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating Midwifery care consistent with evidence based practice for parents, babies and families.
Discuss options and support parents in making informed choice in their plan of care such as Birth plans, pain relief, infant feeding, baby care, return to work and family planning.
Analyse and evaluate the effectiveness of such care, making necessary modifications of any midwifery care pathway and giving professional advice and support as required.
Act as the clients advocate and empower them to promote their own health and well being.
Refer clients to other practitioners e.g. senior midwife, obstetrician, physiotherapist and paediatrician when needs and risks are beyond the post holders scope of practice or require specialist input.
