Abstract

Tuskegee, in Macon County, Alabama, has played an important role in Alabama's midwifery legacy and was home to 2 different midwifery education programs from the 1920s through the 1940s. In response to a 1918 state law requiring midwives to pass an examination to receive a practice permit in their county, stakeholders developed a four-week course for Black Alabamian midwives on the grounds of Tuskegee Institute at the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital. In the 1940s, in the same location on the grounds of Tuskegee Institute, the Tuskegee School of Nurse-Midwifery educated Black nurse-midwives to improve Black maternal and neonatal outcomes in the South.

塔斯基吉助产史：助产教育的先锋。

位于阿拉巴马州梅肯县的塔斯基吉在阿拉巴马州的助产传统中发挥了重要作用，从 20 世纪 20 年代到 40 年代，这里曾举办过两次不同的助产教育课程。1918 年，州法律要求助产士必须通过考试才能在本县获得执业许可，为此，相关人员在约翰-A-安德鲁纪念医院塔斯基吉学院为阿拉巴马州黑人助产士开设了为期四周的课程。20 世纪 40 年代，在塔斯基吉研究所的同一地点，塔斯基吉助产士学校为黑人助产士提供教育，以改善南方黑人产妇和新生儿的状况。
