Center for Health Workforce Studies and Departments of Health and Education are conducting a re-registration survey for all midwives in NY state
Friday August 12th 2011
Jean Moore Director for Health Workforce Studies from the University of Albany SUNY, is soliciting the cooperation of all midwives in this state-wide effort to collect essential data on midwifery practice. All midwives will receive a survey form in the near future for immediate completion. From then onward, each will receive a survey form every three years when you renew your midwifery registration for licensure. It is a short (10 minutes) survey. It may also be completed on line at: http://chws.albany.edu/midwife
Workforce data is driving funding for education and practice among all health care professions. Midwives need to be counted.
