Auxiliary nursing midwives

Auxiliary Nurse Midwives have some training in secondary school. A period of on-thejob training may be included, and sometimes formalised in apprenticeships. Like an auxiliary nurse, an auxiliary nurse midwife has basic nursing skills and no training in nursing decisionmaking. Auxiliary nurse midwives assist in the provision of maternal and newborn health care, particularly during childbirth but also in the prenatal and postpartum periods. They possess some of the competencies in midwifery but are not fully qualified as midwives. (Source WHO cadres in maternal and newborn health)
