Programme Summary

The Midwifery programme is intended to produce competent professional midwives who will give quality health care and services in the community, clinics and hospitals. The Midwife would give emotional support to clients and their relatives by collaborating with other health workers. The goal of the programme, therefore, is to educate a professional midwife who will provide midwifery care and services under the supervision of senior professional midwives, both in the clinical and community settings, with emphasis on midwifery operational research, which will help to provide information for quality of midwifery education and practice (care). The programmes have an ongoing collaboration with the Kwame Nkrumah University of science and technology (KNUST) with the Diploma and POST NAC/NAP affiliated with the University of Cape Coast.

After completion of this programme, graduates will be able to assume responsibilities as professional and competent nurses who provide promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative services.
