Betrachtungen zur akademischen Hebammenausbildung in Europa

Die Hebammenausbildung in Europa wird zunehmend akademisiert. Das hat Vor- und Nachteile: Einerseits kann dieser Trend eine stärkere Professionalisierung des Hebammenberufs antreiben.

Etablierte Konzepte und erprobte Curricula zeigen, wie sich dieser Spagat meistern lässt.
