“…Besides this positive impact, the clinical practice environment sometimes can be a challenge for students (Sun et al, 2022). Midwifery students experience high levels of stress during their clinical education process (Khadivzadeh & Erfanian, 2012;Pryjmachuk & Richards, 2008).…”

This descriptive qualitative study aimed to understand the feelings and thoughts experienced by 4th year midwifery students during the first birth they attended during clinical practice. Focus group interviews were conducted with 22 final year midwifery students in Istanbul, Türkiye December 2020. The transcribed data were analyzed by the descriptive qualitative analysis method. The students experienced not only negative feelings such as fear, torment, anxiety but also positive feelings such as hope, excitement, and curiosity during the first birth practice. The situations that caused negative feelings and thoughts were not only the feelings of the students but also the conditions that negatively affected the care provided to the patient in the clinic. The clinical practice environment affects the feelings and thoughts of midwifery students about the birth process. For this reason, improving the clinical practice environment and supporting students throughout the education process may contribute to the development of positive feelings and thoughts when attending as a student for their first birth suite placement.

“…A study conducted in Nigerian universities found that student counsellors studying Guidance and Counselling perceived counselling codes highly, regardless of their gender and religious beliefs. It was recommended that the Counselling Association of Nigeria should develop ethical codes for professional counselling practice in Nigeria without considering any bias for gender and religion (Sun et al, 2022). Another study conducted in Sanandaj, Iran, found that midwives employed in hospitals and health centres had proper knowledge of professional ethics.…”

Introduction: The professional ethics of midwives at the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital (UPTH) in Rivers State, Nigeria, represent a crucial aspect of healthcare delivery, influencing both patient care and educational frameworks within midwifery. This study investigated factors influencing attitudes and adherence to principles of medical ethics among practising midwives and midwifery students. Methodology: A cross-sectional quantitative design was adopted to survey 124 participants drawn using purposive sampling. The participants were predominantly aged between 18 and 45 years, with a minor segment over 46. The majority, 89.5%, were female, reflecting a significant gender imbalance, while males constituted only 10.5%. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire, which included items on demographic data and various ethical considerations in midwifery practice. Mean and standard deviation were employed for data analysis. Results: Findings from the study revealed a positive attitude (3.41±0.773) and a strong adherence to medical ethics principle (3.39±0.642). The most challenging factors to adherence were balancing conflicting ethical principles in complex cases(3.12 ± 0.694) and workplace culture and policies (3.01 ± 0.716) while regular training and updates on medical ethics (3.64 ± 0.483) and recognition and appreciation for ethical behaviour (3.45 ± 0.603) as the most effective ways to overcome the challenges. Conclusion: Despite the positive attitude and high level of adherence to medical, challenges remain. As such, continuous education and reinforcement of ethical principles are imperative to ensure that these standards are not only understood theoretically but are also consistently applied in clinical practice.
