Track 5: Midwifery Care


Midwifery care is holistic and continuous in nature, understanding of the social, cultural, spiritual, emotional, physical, and psychological experiences of women.  Midwives are described as gatekeepers defining active labor. Prenatal care involves a series of regular tests and evaluations with the midwife. Moreover, prenatal care also helps in detecting and preventing several types of diseases that can be attacked to mother and then spread to baby. Postnatal care should be a continuation of the care the woman received during her pregnancy, labor and birth of a newborn. Post-natal care should involve proper planning and regularly reviewing the content and timing of care, for individual women and their babies. Midwives serve childbearing women from initial puberty to menopause, including care for their newborn (neonatology), antepartum, intra partum, postpartum and gynecological care.
