Midwifery Lab

Key features of our Midwifery Lab:

Simulated Birthing Environment: Our lab is designed to simulate a realistic birthing environment, allowing students to practice and refine their skills in managing normal and complicated deliveries. The lab is equipped with specialized birthing simulators, delivery beds, and medical equipment to recreate various scenarios encountered during childbirth. This realistic setting prepares students to handle different birthing situations with confidence and proficiency.

Antenatal Care and Assessment: In the Midwifery Lab, students learn to provide comprehensive antenatal care to expectant mothers. They practice conducting prenatal assessments, including measuring vital signs, monitoring fetal growth, and performing ultrasound examinations. Students develop the skills to identify and manage common antenatal complications, ensuring the well-being of both the mother and the unborn baby.

Intrapartum Care: Our lab provides a dedicated space for students to learn and practice intrapartum care, including the management of labor and delivery. Through simulated scenarios, students learn to assess labor progression, provide pain relief measures, assist in the delivery process, and manage any potential complications that may arise. This hands-on experience prepares students to provide safe and supportive care during the critical stages of labor and childbirth.

Postpartum Care and Newborn Assessment: Students in the Midwifery Lab gain skills in postpartum care for mothers and newborns. They learn to assess the health of the mother after childbirth, provide support for breastfeeding, monitor postpartum recovery, and identify signs of postpartum complications. Additionally, students practice newborn assessment, including vital signs measurement, physical examination, and identification of common newborn health issues.

Family Planning and Reproductive Health Education: Our Midwifery Lab offers opportunities for students to learn and practice family planning counseling and reproductive health education. Students acquire knowledge about different contraceptive methods, their usage, and counseling techniques to help individuals and couples make informed choices regarding family planning. They also learn to provide reproductive health education to empower women with knowledge about their reproductive rights and overall well-being.

Interprofessional Collaboration: The Midwifery Lab fosters interprofessional collaboration by providing opportunities for students to work alongside other healthcare professionals, such as obstetricians, pediatricians, and nurses. This collaborative environment promotes effective teamwork and communication skills, ensuring comprehensive and coordinated care for women and newborns.

Research and Innovation: Our Midwifery Lab encourages research and innovation in the field of midwifery. Students have the opportunity to engage in research projects related to maternal and newborn health, contribute to evidence-based practice, and explore innovative approaches to improve midwifery care. This research-oriented environment enables students to stay updated with the latest advancements and contribute to the advancement of midwifery knowledge.
