INFORMATION SHEET 1:
Defining Midwifery
Midwifery
According to International Confederation of Midwives
(ICM), “midwifery is the profession for midwives, like other
profession midwifery has a unique body of knowledge, skills
and professional attitudes that were drawn from other health
professions, but practiced by within a professional
framework of autonomy, partnership, ethics and
accountability” (ICM, 2017 p.1).
Moreover, the ICM also describe midwifery as an approach
to care of women and the newborn focused on:
a. optimizing the normal and biological, psychological,
social and cultural process of childbirth and early life
of newborn;
b. Work in partnership with women, respecting the
individual circumstances and views of each women;
c. promoting women’s personal capabilities to care for
themselves and their families;
d. Collaborating with other midwives and other health
professionals as necessary to provide holistic to meet
woman’s individual needs.
Midwife
A midwife is a person or an individual who is admitted
in a duly accredited and recognized institution who offer
midwifery program and has been successfully completed all
the requirements specified in the course and passed the

licensure examination to become a registered or legally

licensed to practice midwifery.
In the Philippines, the Commission on Higher

Education (CHED) is responsible in regulating
midwifery education while the Board of Midwifery,
under the Professional Regulation Commission,
regulates the practice of the profession by administering
licensure examination to qualified students.
Brief history of midwifery practice
Midwifery can be considered as one of the oldest

profession. The study of Brawi, Richter & Habib (2013)
reveals that practice of midwifery existed as early as the
Stone Ages and continued to be practiced across different
Eras starting from the Biblical Era (2200 BC – 1700 BC)
until the Modern Era (12th – 16th Century). During the modern
period, the midwifery profession started to be regulated and
formalized. The renowned figure of nursing profession,
Florence Nightingale, is thought to teach midwifery during
her time.

In the Philippines, in the early 1900’s midwifery is

being practiced by what we “hilots”, these hilots are
community residents who do not have formal education to
midwifery and learned the art of assisting childbirth
through apprenticeship. However, this practice has been
criticized because of the risk of complications. In 1922,
Dr. Jose Fabella, the Secretary of DOH at that time, started
to formalize midwifery education by founding the first
midwifery school in the Philippines, founded in Sampaloc
Manila. After the founding of the first midwifery school,
another school was founded in Cebu, Bacolod and Negros
Occidental.
The first midwifery school founded in 1922 is still

offering midwifery program to this day.
Objectives of Dr. Jose Fabella in founding the Midwifery

School
1. To train young woman in midwifery to gradually replaced

the unlicensed midwives or hilot.
2. To train doctors and rural assignments
3. To give health service and education with emphasis on
maternal and child health
Historical development of Midwifery Program

The midwifery program is a one (1) year term or twelve
(12) months from 1922 to 1951. The realization of the
important roles of midwives in the healthcare system, the
one (1) year term became a one (1) year and a half (1 year
and 6 months). In 1974, the Chairman of the Board of

Midwifery (BOM) in person of Dr. Ricardo Gonzales, further

increase the duration of the midwifery program and it became
a Two (2) Year Midwifery Program. The Two (2) year diploma
in Midwifery Program became the standard in the midwifery
education until the Memorandum Order (CMO 33, s.2007) issued
by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) that the
midwifery program should become a four year or a bachelor
degree program.
Midwifery Regulation
From the founding of midwifery education, midwifery is
regulated under the umbrella of medical education. When the
law RA 2644 was enacted in 1960, the Board of Midwifery
(BOM), under the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC),
was created and the office of the BOM became the regulatory
body for midwifery profession in the country including the
conduct of board examination for midwifery graduates.

INFORMATION SHEET 2:
Man: its characteristics, needs and

rights.
Concept of Man
Concept – a generic idea generalized from a particular

instance or subject.
Sister Callista Roy
Sister Callista Roy is an American nursing

theorists that conceptualizes Man as a
Biopsychosocial and Spiritual being who is in
constant contact with the environment.
In her concept, she pointed four (4)

characteristics of Man which are Man as a
biological being, as a psychological being,
social being and a spiritual being.
1. Man as a biological being is exemplified that "man is

like other man", all human being has similar features
such as having physical bodies and needs, although each
might differ in physical features (such as skin color,
height, etc.) and preference in needs.
2. Man as a Psychological being, this concept is a complex

part of every human being that can hardly quantified.
Psychological aspect can be broadly characterized by
man’s ability to think, feeling and expressing emotions.
Combination of these made a concept that man as a unique
being.

3. Man also is a Social being, this concept means that human

being constantly interacts with other beings as well as
to cooperate with each other in order to achieve a common
goal.
4.
5. The last characteristic is man as an spiritual being,
most human being, if not all, believe worship supreme
being that serve as a guiding light and influences the
way they live their life, though this supreme being may
be differ depending on the belief of each individual.
However, as spiritual being doesn’t only pertain to those
who believed in a supreme, even those who do not belong
to specific religion or worship a certain being can become
spiritual.
Another concept of Man that is proposed by Sr. Roy stating

that man as an Open System who is in constant interaction with
a changing environment. In conjunction to the aforementioned
characteristic of Man (Biopsychosocial being), man itself and
the environment creates an interactive system in which
produces a cycle of input and output process. Both the
individual and the environment serves as a stimulus that serve
as the input and direct the response of the individual, output,
as its adaptive response.
For an example: high environmental temperature

(input/stimuli) stimulates the body to perspire and make
individual to feel thirsty, as a response to this, the
individual tend to go to a cooler environment or drink more
water to stay hydrated and cool (output).

Martha Rogers
Martha Rogers is also an American

theorists that developed the “Science of
Unitary Being”. Based on the theory of
Unitary Being, Martha Rogers proposed the
following concept:
1. Man is unified whole composed of parts which are

interdependent and interrelated with each other.
This concept states that man functions as a whole
despite that the body is composed of different parts.
Despite of these individual parts, these parts are
interdependent and work with each other in order for the
body to function. For an example, in flexing an arm, in
order for the arm to flex in needs an interdependence and
coordination of different body parts such as the brain
(sends signals to the muscles located at the arm), muscles
and the bones.
2. Man is composed of parts which are greater than and

different from the sum of all his parts.
This concept exemplifies that human beings are
greater than the whole body combined. Man’s ability to
think, to create and innovate, and to express emotions
are only a few of the man’s ability that cannot be
measured using the combined parts of human body.

3. Man composed of Subsystem and Suprasystem.
These two systems described the internal and external

environment of Man.
The subsystem, is a composition of the whole body, it

begins with the cell that serves as the smallest functioning
unit of the human body, a group cells will make the tissues,
group of tissues will make the organ, group organs will make
the system, and group of systems (respiratory system,
cardiovascular system, integumentary system, etc.) make the
whole human body.
The suprasystem on the other hand represents the system

that is present outside the human body. The suprasystem begins
with an individual as the smallest unit, group of individuals
will make the family and group of families make the community.
Florence Nightingale
Florence Nightingale is known as the

“Lady with the Lamp”, she is a British nurse
and known to modernize nursing. Her theory
revolves around the idea that human
environment has a great influence to human
health. She also conceptualizes man as an
individual with a reparative processes to deal with disease
and desirous for health but passive in terms of influencing
the environment.

Virgina Henderson
Henderson is also an American nurse

theorists that conceptualizes man as a whole,
complete and independent being who has 14
fundamental needs and the role of healthcare
providers is to assist individuals to meet
these fundamental needs. Furthermore,
according to Henderson, man (person) is a
complete and independent being with a bio-sociological and
spiritual component, a similar concept with Sr. Callista Roy.
14 Fundamental Needs of Man according Virginia Henderson
 Breath Normally  Keep the body clean and well-

groomed to protect
integument
 Eat and drink adequately  Avoid dangers in the
environment and avoiding or
injuring others
 Eliminate body fluids  Communicate with others in
expressing emotions, needs,
fears, or opinions
 Move and maintain a desirable  Worship according to one’s
position faith
 Sleep and rest  Work in such a way that one
feels a sense of
accomplishment
 select suitable clothes  Play or participating in
various forms of recreation
 Maintain body temperature  Learn, discover, or satisfy
within normal range by the curiosity that leads to
adjusting clothing and normal development and health
modifying environment and use the available health
facilities
Man is generally used to describe human beings

regardless of sex or gender.

The characteristics or attributes of Man
1. The capacity to think or conceptualize on the abstract

level – according to this attribute, supports the concept
of Martha Rogers stating that “Man is composed of parts
which are greater than and different from the sum of all
his parts”, because man has the ability to think
critically, invent and solve complex problems.
2. Family formation – this exemplify that man as a social

being. Like other creatures man tend to seek and form
family in order to satisfy his/her social and emotional
needs.
3. The tendency to seek and maintain territory – as a social

being, man maintain and protects its territory. This
attribute do not only cover the man’s residence or
dwelling, personal space but also include its privacy,
etc.
4. The ability to use verbal symbols as language, a means of

developing and maintaining a culture

The needs located in the lower level of the

pyramid are considered as the most essential or

The needs located at the lower level of the
hierarchy must be satisfied first before going into

The first two needs (Physiologic and Safety Needs)

are considered to be essential or necessary for

essential for satisfying psychological needs, lastly
the self-actualization needs are considered to be
self-fulfillment needs.
