Originally published in 1980, the setting of this book is in the
practicalities of teaching on labour wards, in antenatal clinics
and in child health clinics. In such settings, health education
about childbirth and parenthood is often an explicit, and always
implicit, task for the health professional. The book results from
several years' research on health service teaching methods and
contains detailed studies of teaching in practice, in clinics, in
classes and on wards, by midwives, health visitors,
physiotherapists, doctors, National Childbirth Trust teachers and
the writers of educational pamphlets. A number of transcripts of
teaching sessions are presented to illustrate ways in which
practitioners can develop more relevant and sensitive teaching
strategies. The author shows that realistic goals are essential if
the needs of learners, who are also problematically 'patients' and
'clients', are to be met. The book offers insights into
professional problems which voluntary organisations concerned with
the health service and with educational work with parents, can use
to help both themselves and their clients to make a more
intelligent use of the facilities available. A more practical but
critical philosophy of antenatal teaching is advocated, enabling
all professionals involved to take a fresh look at their courses
and clients.
