The World Health Organization defined a midwife as:
a person who, having been regularly admitted to a midwifery educational program,
duly recognized in the country in which it is located, has successfully
completed the prescribed course of studies in midwifery and has acquired the
requisite qualifications to be registered and/or legally licensed to practice
midwifery. She must be able to give the necessary supervision, care and advice
to women during pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period, to conduct
deliveries on her own responsibility, and to care for the newborn and the
infant.
