Nurse or midwife?
Article Abstract:
It has become increasingly common in the UK for people who wish to train as midwife not to undergo general nursing training first. There are now direct-entry training courses available for student midwives in many parts of the country, and the benefits of this approach are beginning to be widely recognized. It has been established that those who train directly as a midwife tend to stay in midwifery, whereas those who have also received nursing training may return to nursing.
