Formulate a maternity care plan together with the new mother and possibly her partner. Make use
of the maternity file or the maternity guide that is used in your maternity institution. In order to
guarantee the deepening of your knowledge, select situations with various care issues. For
instance:
a family with a newborn baby from a different cultural and/or spiritual background
a deviating course in giving birth or the childbed (due to an episotomy, mastitis, etc.).
a complication in the newborn child (a congenital defect, an infection of the umbilical
stump, feeding problems, etc.)
issues in the family (a brother or sister with ADHD, socially undesirable behaviour, such as
smoking near the baby, etc.).
Submit an accountability report in which you account for the choices you have made in
consultation. Use the theory and the individual situation of the family with the newborn baby.
Support your accountability by submitting a case, stating:
the course of the pregnancy
the course of the birth
observation data of the new mother and newborn baby
prevention of complications
any complications and their treatment
the care, supervision, information and advice provided.
