This year the focus of World Health Day is universal healthcare for all: everyone, everywhere. This theme really resonates with ICM as it’s particularly relevant to our work. Globally, women awareness and accessing technology at maternity services experiences are too much too soon or too little too late. Autonomous midwives working to their full scope of practise in enabling environments within functioning health care systems are the key to achieving the best outcomes for every woman, everywhere, every day.The aim is evidence based woman-centred, safe and effective maternal and newborn health systems.
The nursing and midwifery leadership plays a critical role in building a viable health labour market to ensure successful implementation of the GSHRH 2030. An intersectoral agenda is central to solving the health workforce crisis in countries. The current health workforce demand to meet the SDGs is 4.45 midwives, nurses and doctors per 1000 population. This can be achieved by:
• optimizing the existing workforce in pursuit of the SDGs and UHC (e.g. by education, employment, retention);
• anticipating future workforce requirements by 2030 and planning the necessary changes (e.g. a fitfor-purpose, needs-based workforce);
• strengthening individual and institutional capacity to manage HRH policy, planning and implementation (e.g. migration and regulation);
• strengthening the data, evidence and knowledge on cost-effective policy decisions (e.g. national health workforce accounts).
It is important to take gender into account with regard to the nursing and midwifery workforce. Data from the Global Health Observatory show that women constitute 70% of the current global health workforce, making a vital economic contribution to achieving the SDGs.Their efforts to address issues of gender balance should be encouraged. Nevertheless, developing countries face glaring challenges as they have the lowest number of nurses and midwives per population. The situation is made worse by increasing rural-urban and international migration. The SDNM 2016−2020 offers a policy solution to these challenges as it aims to provide available, accessible, acceptable, quality and cost-effective nursing and midwifery care for all, based on population needs and in support of the SDGs and UHC. Thus GCNMOs can be change agents by empowering nurses and midwives to fill service delivery gaps in countries. GCNMOs as decision-makers in Member States, nursing and midwifery associations and other partners can support the implementation of the GSHRH 2030 and the SDNM 2016−2020 to help achieve UHC and meet the SDGs. Nursing and midwifery leadership is critical to building primary health care.
Challenges and barriers to CNM/CM clinical practice generally fall into one of two categories: those created by restrictive state laws and regulations and those that, although they may have a regulatory component, can be considered related to the business of midwifery. This section of the paper describes major regulatory and business midwifery challenges.
Information on Prenatal Technologies
The process of getting information on a technology can be tricky, so a couple of examples will be given to illustrate how to go about it. During pregnancy , mother might find it a good idea to test skills at getting information on a technology and to see how willing the midwife, nurse or doctor is to provide full, unbiased information.It is likely that a routine ultrasound scan will be suggested fairly early in your pregnancy. This presents a perfect opportunity to ask a few questions: “What is the chance the scan will make things worse? Is such a scan safe?” If the answer is a flat “Yes, ultrasound scanning during pregnancy is safe,” alarm bells should start going off in your head, because you are not getting the full information.The data on the safety of prenatal ultrasound,” in order to check on what you may be told about the data on the safety of prenatal ultrasound. The main issue here is because there is not sufficient scientific data to prove the safety of prenatal ultrasound.” Some research has shown the possibility that ultrasound can cause slowed growth of the fetus while still in the uterus. Other research has shown the possibility that some children who have been scanned while still in the uterus may later have mild neurological deficits.

Midwife Touch Ambassador Recognition award-ICM and JJCI partnership perplexed and merged as a Midwife Touch Ambassador into action, Leadinf to successful Ambassador recognition-
• Educating other midwives or parents on the power of Touch and massage to foster health newborn development
• Sharing information on the benefits of massage on your own social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram or Twitter). Midwifes demonstrate, document and share with ICM how they are effectively spreading their newfound knowledge at the country, community or health facility level through the Midwife Touch Ambassador Recognition award submission.
In this field the types of technologies midwives can use are the breast feeding pumps. Many mothers have asked if they can safely sell, purchase or use a previously owned breastpump. Research evidence suggests that certain viruses and bacteria are transmittable through breastmilk. Today’s technology cares about the health and welfare of breastfeeding mothers and babies. For this reason, experts advise against sharing breastpumps that have been previously owned. Different mothers have different breast pumping needs and economic means.

Using AR headsets and lifelike models of full-term mothers, trainee midwives at Middlesex University can take part in fully simulated births, which the university’s clinical staff hope will both hone their clinical skills and leave them better prepared to face challenges rarely seen in day-to-day practice.AR technology offers users an interactive experience in which objects in the real world are enhanced by computer-generated information. AR system allowed students to understand better the birthing process by displaying an interactive representation of a patient’s anatomy.
