La maternità responsabile: ruolo dell'ostetrica

"Responsible Maternity: The Role of the Midwife" is a professional book that explores the development and role of the midwife in modern society. Originally known as 'levatrice', the profile of the midwife has significantly evolved over time. Today, she is a professional who not only assists during childbirth but also plays a crucial role in promoting women's health. The book highlights the diverse competencies that midwives have acquired and their responsibility in caring for women from adolescence to motherhood. It also addresses the challenges associated with unintended pregnancies and how midwives can support women through empowerment and counseling to better navigate these experiences. Author Nadia Apicella provides valuable insights into the social relevance of this profession and the importance of midwives in healthcare.
