Re: [ozmidwifery] Preceptorships

[Jen Semple]

Pardon my ignorance, but what other method is there for midwife students to gain clinical experience than preceptorship?

 

Since I can't think of any other methods, I can't think of how or why research would be done to support or not support it.

 

I feel like I'm missing something :o)

Robin, are you after references in terms of research evidence or in terms of what other hospitals are doing?

 

I'm a 2nd year Bachelor of Midwifery student @ VU in Melbourne.  I did my last set of clinical placements @ Werribee-Mercy hospital & was most impressed with their preparation for us, which included an extensive "manual" for us.

 

(03) 9216 8888 is the phone for the switchboard 7 ask for Clinical Midwifery Educators.

 

Hope this helps!
