This book is a must for all midwifery students. Even though it is not a required text, I am so glad to have it each day of clinical. Buy it and you will be too! -- Don't leave for clinical without it
The authors created this book as an answer to the dreaded Black Book our professors tell us to create. Our individual Black Book should contain an overview of nurse-midwifery care along with special details we think *may* be useful to us in the future. I tried and tried to create my own but felt as though I was trying to re-create the wheel...until I stumbled along this gem.
The content is fairly thorough, although I have begun to add in details here and there that will help me personally. There are a few topics which I find to be very important that have been omitted, but overall this book is certainly worth the money. My only complaint is that it is spiral bound. It would be more practical to have it in a small 3 or 6 ring binder so the reader can add pages as necessary.
Bottom Line: If you are a student nurse-midwife, save yourself the hassle of re-creating the wheel and simply add your own details into The Efficient Midwife. I never thought I'd use the Black Book, but I find myself pulling this out constantly.
-- Excellent!
