Content Description
The Midwifery publications collection consists of journals and newsletters (Association of Radical Midwives newsletter, Midwifery News, and the New Zealand College of Midwives Journal) dating from 1983 to 2003. These publications originating from the United Kingdom and New Zealand showcase the evolution of midwifery practice and the issues it has faced over a 30 year period.
Historical Note
The Association of Radical Midwives (ARM) was formed in 1976 by a small group of student midwives from different training schools who were alarmed by the apparent trend towards maternity nurse status in their training. The acronym 'ARM' is a pun on the term 'Artificial Rupture of Membranes' which was routinely (over-) used at the time.
The New Zealand College of Midwives Journal is aimed at both a national and international audience. It focuses on research about midwifery issues and women's health, within a continuity of midwifery care framework.
