Aslı Kurtgöz, Asuman Şener, Banu Terzi, Canan Eraydın, Münevver Sönmez, Seval Ağaçdiken Alkan, Tuğba Çınarlı, Zeliha Koç, Zeynep Sağlam At the heart of all health-related professions, care helps people find meaning in their lives. In this direction, care is at the center of the midwifery profession, which provides health care to the individual, family and society. Care practice for midwives requires mutual communication and cooperation between the midwife and the healthy/sick individual. Even just the presence of midwives can make healthy/sick individuals feel safe. For this reason, midwifery students should understand the meaning and importance of midwifery care during their professional education and increase their theoretical knowledge, skills and competencies on this subject.
How to offer humanistic care and compassion is gained through midwifery training and continues to mature through experiential practices. This book, called Midwifery Fundamentals Clinical Skills and Practices, aims to provide students with the basic concepts of midwifery, the importance of midwifery in the development and protection of individual, family and community health, the role and functions of midwifery, the correct determination and resolution of health problems related to the care process of the individual and his family. In addition, the work aims to provide midwifery students with the necessary knowledge, psychomotor skills and attitudes about professional practices.

Our colleagues who provide services in the field of health and are responsible for care have very important responsibilities. Our colleagues are expected to use scientific evidence, follow up-to-date information, and convey the results of their work to care.
Our colleagues, who are aware of these responsibilities, carry out studies in many fields, especially in complementary medicine applications, in order to obtain new evidence and contribute to the development of databases of their professions.
However, the legal regulations on complementary medicine practices cause us to have difficulties in permitting the studies we will do in this field. We wanted to create this book in order to draw attention to the work of our colleagues on complementary medicine practices, whose place and importance in the field of health are well known, and to shed light on what they will do.
Hope it will be useful to your readers and the literature…
