摘要:

ABSTRACTThis paper reports the findings of a recent study which was conducted to determine whether there is appropriate distribution of nurse‐midwives in the United States. A methodology for analysis of requirements for nurse‐midwives was developed in order to assess whether the current distribution is appropriate given requirements indicators in each county. As a final stage of the analysis, three groups of counties are singled out for special attention: (1) those with no nurse‐midwives; (2) those with low levels of relative supply of nurse‐midwives; and (3) those with high levels of relative supply of nurse‐midwives. These groups are compared, in order to determine whether there are differences in demographic characteristics, health status indicators, and other health manpower which might be associated with differences in nurse‐midwife supply in each group of counties. Conclusions and discussion of potential policy implications are drawn from the descriptive and analyt

摘要:

ABSTRACTIt is essential that people and organizations stop to think about their personal and professional expectations of the future.

This scenario was developed to be a futuristic look at nurse‐midwifery from the year 1980 to the year 2005. The 25 years that will follow the 25th Anniversary Convention will be important for nurse‐midwives, and this article explores some of the societal, women's, and health care issues that may impact the profession of nurse‐midw

摘要:

ABSTRACTThe issue of routine circumcision of the newborn is being debated in current obstetrics and pediatrics. A majority of male infants born in the United States are circumcised in the neonatal period, but recent studies cast doubt upon the validity of the traditional reasons for performing such prophylactic surgery. Many parents are not adequately informed about the risks of and alternatives to circumcision. The purpose of this paper is to provide nurse‐midwives with information so that they can adequately counsel parents. It is suggested that teaching about circumcision begin in the prenatal period, and a sample parent information sheet is give
