Midwife training under scrutiny at Parliament

Midwife training is under scrutiny as MPs consider a call to beef up post-graduate supervision. A group lobbying for change - Action to Improve Maternity - is recommending a post-graduate internship as part of a midwife's registration. The Health Select Committee considering the plan has asked for more information - but the message from the Ministry of Health and the College of Midwives is that everything is fine.
