2. INTRODUCTION TO THE CLINICAL RECORD. Welcome to midwifery at Charles Darwin University. It is a requirement of the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) that you achieve certain clinical requirements in order to register as a midwife. There are 2 sections to the clinical record: Section 1: Clinical Practice Record Section 2: Continuity of Care Experiences Record Section 1 (this document) is for you to record the mandatory requirements listed on page 5, from point 2 to point 9, inclusive. There is a separate record for your Continuity of Care journeys. This record contains a limited number of pages for recording your clinical requirements as you achieve these and you can download and print off further pages as required. Copies of the relevant pages will be available as pdf files on your units Learnline site. All your clinical achievements must be verified by a Registered Midwife, Obstetrician or General Practitioner Obstetrician. Your clinical records cannot be signed off by any other health care professional, except in the case of MID301 Women’s Health and MID307 Specialist Neonatal Care, a RN or GP may verify your record. You will note that with some requirements you have a specified number to achieve, e.g.100 antenatal visits, whilst others are not so, e.g. vaginal examination. Where there is a number specified this is the minimum you must achieve for registration with NMBA. With the other areas you should aim to gain as much experience as you are able to and record all of it. With items such as abdominal examination it is assumed you will perform an abdominal examination as part of most antenatal assessments/visits and there is space provided for you to record 20 abdominal examinations, you may record more if you wish. Items such as Perinatal Mental Health Referrals will not occur as often and it important to record all experiences. The NMBA require you to have exposure in this area and to be aware of referral pathways so the more you can record will provide the evidence to support this. The midwifery course co-ordinator does not need to see the original clinical record practice 1 until the end of the course. However, it is expected that you will document a progressive total of mandatory clinical skills in each of your clinical assessment portfolios on page 5. It is also recommended that you keep a certified copy of these clinical skills in case you are asked to provide this evidence for any prospective midwifery employer.

If you have any queries about the information in this record please contact: Midwifery Course Coordinator 08 8946 6596.
