Abstract

In 2001, a new model of midwifery care was established in the Birth Centre at St George Hospital, a metropolitan hospital in NSW. The new model was designed to encompass the principles and recommendations from numerous government reports and research. The model also build on the previous successful implementation of a team midwifery program (Homer et al 2001b; Homer et al 2001a).

Four newly graduated midwives, together with four more experienced midwives were employed to work in the models of midwifery care. This small study evaluates the first 10 months' using qualitative and quantitative data.

As this is a small study, no firm conclusion can be reached. The results of the evaluation however demonstrated that with appropriate support and mentoring, newly graduated midwives can work in an innovative model of midwifery care within a birth centre environment.

从学生到助产士:刚毕业的助产士在助产护理创新模式下工作的经验

2001年，新南威尔士州首府医院圣乔治医院的生育中心建立了一种新的助产护理模式。新模式的设计包含了许多政府报告和研究的原则和建议。该模型还建立在先前成功实施的团队助产方案的基础上(Homer等人，2001年b;荷马等人，2001)。雇用了四名刚毕业的助产士和四名经验更丰富的助产士在助产护理模式中工作。这项小型研究使用定性和定量数据评估前10个月的情况。由于这是一项小型研究，因此无法得出确切的结论。然而，评估结果表明，在适当的支持和指导下，新毕业的助产士可以在生育中心环境中以创新的助产护理模式工作。
