Health Promotion in Midwifery: Principles and Practice

English

The fourth edition of Health Promotion in Midwifery explores the principles of health promotion within the practical context of midwifery. It clearly outlines and discusses the midwifes role in health promotion, linking theory and practice.

This thoroughly updated new edition considers recent changes and developments in midwifery practice and public health. It explores essential topics such as infant feeding, smoking, mental health, behaviour change, models for health promotion, violence and abuse, and sexual health promotion and includes seven entirely new chapters. These new additions reflect the need to improve inequalities in care for service users from a range of backgrounds such as for clients from racially diverse communities, clients from the LGBT+ communities and migrant and displaced clients. Further chapters, such as those looking at public health in a global world, vaccinations in pregnancy and self-care for midwives, meet needs highlighted by the recent pandemic and its aftermath.

Text boxes throughout ensure the text is accessible and user-friendly, and case studies and summaries put the material in practical context. Further reading sections encourage readers to further research and reflection on their own practice. This textbook is essential reading for all midwives, student midwives, health visitors and other health care professions in maternity care education and practice.
