Legal Defense Course
Legal defense is another critical area for midwives to understand. Anytime you care for moms and babies, we are at risk of being sued for care that has occurred now and up to 21 years in the future. Our course provides you with the knowledge and tools you need to defend yourself in legal situations that may arise in your practice. This course has over 15 hours of great content around ways midwives can protect themselves and their practices from lawsuits and litigation risks. We go deep into documentation, defusing patient complaints, collaboration, transfers, the scope of midwifery care, policies, and quality measures.
