- Bring research, best practice and emerging professional issues into policy discussions, keeping our regulatory approach at the forefront of professional regulation.
- Your work will directly influence the standards and regulatory frameworks that guide midwifery practice and education, helping ensure the public receives safe and high-quality care.
