This is how midwives talk about pregnancy, labour and birth, and after the baby is born.

It shows clearly Elle understands the role of the midwife – she uses terms like ‘the antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal period’. Women should make their own choices and midwives should support this To begin with I’ll run through why Elle’s statement is so good and got 5/5 interviews:Įlle mentions advocacy and shows an understanding of how important this concept is. She tells me she was the kind of child who was obsessed with midwifery and used to go up to Mums in Tesco and ask them all about their babies! Gorgeous, haha. It should give you some great pointers passion, common sense and experience really come through here.īig thanks to Elle who donated her statement to feature. I’m hoping by the end of the post you can breathe a sigh of relief because today I'm sharing an excellent example personal statement. One applicant told me that she’s put so many buzzwords in that she wishes admissions tutors have a system whereby they stick a statement on a wall and throw a dart at it, and if they like the midwifery concept where it lands, the applicant should get an interview! Are you getting frustrated with your personal statement? You’re not the only one, a lot of my Facebook messages and emails are about this at the moment.
