Mi szükséges ahhoz, hogy Skóciában is szülésznőként dolgozzak?

To practice as a midwife in the UK, you must be registered with the Nursing & Midwifery Council (NMC). To become registered, you'll need to have completed an approved pre-registration midwifery programme, which lasts three years full time. Half of the course is spent studying at university, while the other half is based in practical placements to provide you with hands-on experience.

Part-time courses are available to those who are working in a relevant role and usually take five to six years. If you're already a qualified nurse, you can take a midwifery short programme, which allows you to qualify sooner than the three-year course.

You can search for all types of midwifery degrees at Health Careers: Course Finder.

Acceptance on to a course will be subject to satisfactory health clearance and a disclosure and barring service (DBS) check. Having a criminal conviction or caution won't automatically bar you from working in the NHS.

The NHS provides funding to cover tuition fees for students who are UK residents. Check with your chosen institution to find out if your course is eligible for funding. You may also be entitled to a bursary to help with living costs. More information can be found at NHS Student Bursaries.

For bursary information if you are attending courses in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland see:

Gaining a place on a direct-entry course to midwifery is highly competitive, so you should aim to apply early.

Mondjuk ha a hivatalos szervezetet hívod fel talán jobb mint szóbeszédbe bízni.
