The RCM Podcast: Student midwives, our future midwives
Student midwives are our future midwives, but what’s it like being a student midwife in 2021? In our new episode Gemma Murphy talks to three student midwives from England, Scotland and Northern Ireland who are all at different stages of their midwifery training.
How has it been on clinical placement and studying during the pandemic? What inspired them to become a midwife? What have been the biggest challenges? What’s it like to start a profession in law change to train as a midwife? How hard is it to juggle childcare while on clinical placement? and what advice do these student midwives have for anyone considering becoming a midwife.
