Supporting Women with Additional Care Needs

HIM2001 - Supporting Women with Additional Care Needs

<p>In this module you’ll explore the midwife’s role and responsibilities in meeting the additional care needs of women with complications. You’ll learn about pathology, pre-existing, current and emerging complications and additional care needs affecting childbearing women, as well as how these complications can affect women’s health and wellbeing. You’ll have the opportunity to develop the knowledge and skills required to recognise compromise and deterioration, provide first-line management, escalate concerns appropriately and work collaboratively with the interprofessional team to provide evidence-based best practice approaches to management and care. This will comprise situations including breech birth, haemorrhage and caesarean and conditions such as diabetes.</p>
