On completion of the BSc Midwifery, you will be recommended to the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) for registration as a Registered Midwife (NFQ Level 8).
The course is designed to meet all the requirements and standards for Midwifery Education (ABA 2005). A broad-based curriculum helps to produce critical, analytical and reflective practitioners capable of functioning in a variety of settings as midwives.
Each year of the course has two components that consist of theoretical modules and midwifery practice modules. On completion of this course you will be able to:
demonstrate knowledge and skills to provide safe and effective care for antenatal, childbirth and postnatal care
effectively coordinate, organise and manage midwifery care on your own initiative and in consultation with the multidisciplinary team
critically appraise and evaluate current research evidence and best practice for midwifery.
