[Academisation of the Midwifery Profession (Part 2): Risks - and How they can Be Avoided as Best as Possible in the Degree Programs]. / Akademisierung des Hebammenberufs (Teil 2): Risiken ­ und wie sie in den Studiengängen bestmöglich vermieden werden können.

ABSTRACT

The full academisation of midwifery training, which thus far has been given in technical colleges, is now beginning in Germany and poses a great challenge for both the German federal states and the universities. Against this background, the aim of this article is to identify possible risks arising from the full academisation of training and the revision of the Midwifery Act and to show possible solution strategies to promote the implementation of study programmes.
