Description

It was expected to learn about the education system which is based on clinical instruction and clinical agency-University collaboration. The authors visited the British University and NHS General Hospital in order to explore their system of clinical placement. We heard explanation about the systems of midwifery clinical instruction from a faculty member of the university and a hospital midwife and interviewed them. Our discussions on the system of midwifery clinical instruction revealed that there are clear standards and guidelines by the U.K. Government on Midwifery education, in which clinical agency-University collaboration as well as clinical mentor trainings are mandated, while such systems do not exist in Japan. In order for Japan to establish an effective clinical instruction system in midwifery education, it would be essential to establish a system and clear guidelines for collaboration between clinical agency and the university, as well as for educating clinical mentors to guarantee ability for instruction within the midwifery education system.
