Welcome to Sharing the Skills

midwife

Sharing the Skills is a vehicle to spread the knowledge of experienced practitioners to other professionals providing maternity services.

Changes in the provision of maternity services over the years has meant that many midwives and obstetricians may not have learnt or practised these skills, while the need for them has not gone away, for example when faced with an undiagnosed breech presenting baby.

We have gained extensive clinical experience and knowledge about breech, twins and other unusual normal births. The realisation that this knowledge is too valuable to be lost, led us to the idea of starting Sharing the Skills study days.
