Who continue? A preliminary examination of data on continuation of employment in midwifery.

Abstract:

:A follow-up descriptive survey of the employment practice of midwives has been undertaken in an attempt to identify factors associated with more long term midwifery practice. Existing data on Notification of Intention to Practise as a Midwife was used to follow up a cohort of midwives who qualified in 1981 and 1982 in Scotland. Midwives who were older, married and who had a higher level of education when starting their midwifery training were more likely to practice long term. The implications for the Scottish midwifery service are discussed.
