Abstract

Background: The increase in chronic diseases, dealing with a diverse clientele, the rapidly developing digitalization in healthcare as well as the demand for interprofessionalism poses complex demands on the midwifery as profession. Within this context institutions of higher education are expected to train midwives as trendsetters in the development of new, integrated healthcare models which can meet the health needs of mothers and their families. Goal: The goal of the master course in midwifery is to increase awareness of the relevance of current challenges in maternity care. Midwives are prepared to competently deal with current health issues, using innovative healthcare models, by taking on advanced and specialized roles. Methods: The course imparts knowledge and know-how for midwives who wish to prepare to take on duties in modern obstetric and maternity care. Midwifery master students complete interprofessional course modules, such as Ethics, Advanced Practice or Health Policy and Health Economics, conjointly with fellow students of nursing, physiotherapy as well as nutrition and dietetics degrees. Three profession-specific course modules focus on the challenges imposed by complex processes in perinatal care. Results: The case study of a 5th semester student shows how the course supports the development of the new role of an Advanced Practice Midwife (APM) in the field of perinatal mental health. As an assignment within the profession-specific course module Perinatal Mental Health the student developed a concept draft for an APM role. She presented the concept in her own field of work, where she was charged with further developing and advancing the project. Furthermore, the student focused her Transfer Course modules on the project and deepened her skills in mental health and research skills through work shadowing in a research department and mental health ward, also called ,,Crisis lntervention Centre", in a university psychiatric clinic. Based on the APN model she finally developed how to establish the APM role in her master thesis. To conduct the needs assessment for mentally ill pregnant women and mothers she is conducting a secondary data analysis of a research project of the Division of Midwifery of BFH. Relevance: The establishment of integrated and intersectoral healthcare models is currently being discussed in Switzerland. The models require specific skills in healthcare professionals. The interprofessionally oriented master studies at BFH teach midwives to meet the requirements of needs-based, family-centred perinatal healthcare and strengthen its quality. Recommendations/Conclusions: The interlocking of master studies and practice offers the unique opportunity to further develop innovative healthcare models which are aimed at addressing present and future challenges in healthcare delivery and which are based on research.
由高级实践助产士开发新的健康提供模式-伯尔尼应用科学大学(BFH)的助产科学硕士:未来的教育理念
背景:慢性疾病的增加,处理多样化的客户,医疗保健数字化的快速发展以及对跨专业的需求对助产这一职业提出了复杂的要求。在这方面,高等教育机构应培训助产士,使其成为发展新的综合保健模式的引领者,以满足母亲及其家庭的保健需要。目标:助产学硕士课程的目标是提高对当前产妇护理挑战的相关性的认识。助产士准备胜任处理当前的健康问题,使用创新的医疗模式,通过采取先进和专业的角色。方法:课程传授知识和诀窍的助产士谁希望准备承担责任的现代产科和产妇护理。助产学硕士生与护理学、物理疗法以及营养学和营养学学位的同学一起完成伦理学、高级实践或卫生政策和卫生经济学等跨专业课程模块。三个专业特定的课程模块侧重于围产期护理复杂过程所带来的挑战。结果:一名第五学期学生的案例研究表明,该课程如何支持在围产期心理健康领域发展高级实践助产士(APM)的新角色。作为专业特定课程模块围产期心理健康的一项作业,学生开发了APM角色的概念草案。她在自己的工作领域提出了这个概念,她负责进一步发展和推进这个项目。此外,该学生将转学课程的模块重点放在该项目上,并通过在大学精神病诊所的研究部门和心理健康病房(也称为“危机干预中心”)的实习工作,加深了她在心理健康和研究技能方面的技能。基于APN模型,她最终在硕士论文中发展了如何建立APM角色。为了对患有精神疾病的孕妇和母亲进行需求评估,她正在对妇产医院助产部的一个研究项目进行二次数据分析。相关性:瑞士目前正在讨论建立综合和跨部门保健模式的问题。这些模型需要医疗保健专业人员具备特定的技能。BFH的跨专业硕士课程教导助产士满足以需求为基础、以家庭为中心的围产期保健的要求,并提高其质量。建议/结论:硕士研究和实践相结合为进一步发展创新医疗模式提供了独特的机会,这些模式旨在解决医疗服务中当前和未来的挑战,并以研究为基础。
