About this publication
Skilled care during pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period is vital to the survival and health of mothers and newborns. In fact, the wellbeing of a society is represented by the health of mothers, newborns and children. To this end, the United Nations has determined that the number of births assisted by a skilled attendant is one of the indicators of progress in a country. Juta’s Clinical Guide for Midwives is a user-friendly, highly illustrated clinical manual developed to provide all midwives with up-to-date knowledge and practical skills.
