- Information
Description
Legal and ethical competence is a cornerstone of professional midwifery practice and an essential part of midwifery training.
Law and Ethics for Midwifery is a unique and practical resource for student midwives.
Written by an experienced midwifery lecturer, this text draws on a wide variety of real life case studies and focuses particularly on the core areas of accountability, autonomy and advocacy.
Opening with two chapters providing overviews respectively of ethical theories and legislation, the book is then arranged thematically.
These chapters have a common structure which includes case studies, relevant legislation, reflective activities and a summary, and they run across areas of concern from negligence through safeguarding to record-keeping. Grounded in midwifery practice, the text enables student midwives to consider and prepare for ethical and legal dilemmas they may face as midwives in clinical practice.
