Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to develop a theory in order to explain the meaning and process of learning the role of the midwife from midwives in the clinical setting. To achieve the depth and detail required in the absence of literature on this topic, the grounded theory approach was adopted. The sample consisted of twenty student midwives and seventeen midwives. Data were collected by means of unstructured interviews which were tape-recorded. Each participant was interviewed on a minimum of two separate occasions. The constant comparative method was used to analyse the data. The findings of

Since the inception of the student supernumerary status, both globally and in South Africa, nursing and midwifery educators have been concerned about the clinical competencies of their students.

Bakgrund: Kvinnors behov av modern familjeplanering är inte tillgodosett. Samhällsekonomiska vinster finns att hämta om fler använder långverkande reversibla preventivmedel (LARC), i stället för mindre effektiva kortverkande metoder. Det finns ett behov av förbättrade arbetssätt för att kvinnor genom ett välinformerat beslut ska kunna välja effektiva preventivmedel. Syfte: Att undersöka om reproduktiv anamnes och sociodemografiska faktorer har en inverkan på valet av LARC vid strukturerad respektive sedvanlig preventivmedelsrådgivning, bland ungdomar och unga vuxna (18–24 år) på ungdomsmottagn
