Hi
At our tertiary facility here in New Zealand we are taught manual removal of
placenta for emergency circumstances only.
I don't recall it being taught at undergraduate level

Neither of these skills are taught in undergraduate midwifery in New Zealand
and would not be an expectation of the midwifery scope of practice here

Hi
Please can any one help with the following:
The NMC Standards for Pre-Registration Midwifery Education, on page 27 state
the following:
"Undertake appropriate emergency procedures to meet the health needs of
women and babies.
Emergency procedures will include:
* manual removal of the placenta
* manual examination of the uterus
Please can you advise if this is taught as standard pre-registration
training for midwives in other areas/countries. I understand that this is
taken from an EU directive and am partucularly interested to see if within
Europe it is taught as an emergency care skill alongside the breech and PPH
training as well as in other parts of the world.
I would be greatful of any information asap as am writing an essay for my
Supervisor of Midwives training due in in 2 weeks!
Look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks
Jo
