 The Midwifery Curriculum Framework

The conceptual framework is the organizing plan for the

midwifery curriculum. It provides a clear structure by which fac-
ulty members and students can be guided in the curricular com-
ponents, its relationships per year. There are professional course
that run through the two levels of the midwifery program. There
are general education course that serve as foundations in the
development of students as a person, as a citizen and eventually
as a professional midwife. Likewise basic sciences courses are
also considered building blocks in understanding better the pro-
fessional courses as it applies in the care of the human being.

The nursing/ midwifery process is a problem-solving ap-

proach which is adopted as a framework for nursing/ midwifery
practice. This is a curriculum thread that is utilized in the care of
clients (individuals, families, groups and communities) across the
lifespan in various clinical settings.

The development of the Midwifery curriculum is affected

by many factors such as:
1.Availability of health resources
2.Health problems
3.Local, political, social economic circumstances
Legislation affecting practice and professional standards

The conceptual framework is based on the vision, mis-

sion, goals and objectives of midwifery education and consistent-
ly updated with the demands of the midwifery profession.
