This subject introduces students to the evolution of nursing and midwifery as professional
disciplines. Historical and contemporary professional, political and regulatory influences
on professional practice will be discussed and evaluated. The role of the registered
nurse and midwife within the healthcare team is also explored and students are encouraged
to examine their own concept of being a healthcare professional. In this subject the
concept of evidence based practice is introduced as a foundation for person-centred
practice.

least 80% of scheduled tutorials/specified online content; achieve a satisfactory
