    This document outlines the competencies and clinical practice requirements for three midwifery placements: The first placement is on the labour ward for 3 weeks and postnatal ward for 1 week. It focuses on health promotion, assessment and diagnosis, and management of mothers in labor. The second placement is again on the labour ward for 3 weeks, with competencies in health promotion for laboring mothers, assessment and diagnosis of labor, and management of normal deliveries. The third placement splits 2 weeks between the prenatal clinic and 2 weeks in the labour ward. It emphasizes assessment and diagnosis through antenatal history and exams, and management of antenatal patients and normal deliveries.
