New Registrants Welcome.
Registered Midwives (RMs) are health professionals who are responsible for the provision of safe, flexible primary care to women and their babies during pregnancy, labour, birth and the postpartum period. As primary care providers, RMs may be the first point of entry to maternity services and are fully responsible for clinical decisions and the management of care within their scope of practice. The RM provides care to women and newborns in a variety of settings such as in the client’s home, in community clinics and in hospitals in accordance with the Midwifery Model of Practice and the Standards of the Midwifery Regulatory Council of Nova Scotia. The RM provides care to the woman and her newborn until approximately six weeks postpartum and facilitates continuity of access to care beyond the childbearing year, when necessary, through communication with other care providers or services.
The RM exhibits sound professional judgment and initiative while working within the professional practice legislation and the Mission, Vision, Strategic Direction, and incorporates into daily practice the Core Competencies and Values of the organization. The RM provides the complete course of low-risk prenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care, including physical examinations, screening and diagnostic tests, the assessment of risk and abnormal conditions, and the conduct of normal vaginal deliveries. RMs work in collaboration with other health professionals and consult with or refer to medical specialists as appropriate. The midwifery model of care promotes normal birth, enables women to make informed choices, and provides continuity of care and support throughout the childbearing experience. RMs attend births in hospitals, and at home.
