Simulation and skills training support the development of midwifery competencies. Midwives will already be familiar with torsos, dolls and pelvises to simulate abdominal palpations, neonatal resuscitation and mechanisms of labour. The use of high-fidelity simulation through technologically advanced manikins in skills training for the midwifery students has also been developed, and it is hoped that this will increase students' performance in effectively managing maternal resuscitation and other obstetric emergencies after simulation in clinical labs. Simulation has great benefits, such as increasing the interaction between educators and students and using experiential learning, or learning through doing and reflecting. Skill performance, critical thinking, and self-confidence can all be assessed and evaluated during the simulation experience.
