title: Internationally qualified midwives: developing a pathway to adaptation.
abstract: Midwives who have gained their qualifications abroad are a valuable asset to the NHS, but they require training in some areas to enable them to adapt to practice in the U.K. With a view to developing such a programme, research was undertaken into the communication skills and learning needs of internationally qualified midwives.
