These Standards and Requirements give direction to Higher Education Institutions and for Health Service Providers.

The scope of Practice: the scope of parts, capacities, duties, and exercises which an enrolled nurture or enlisted birthing specialist is instructed, skilled and has an expert to perform.

From that point forward, the Scope Framework, with its basic leadership calculation, has been a cornerstone of direction for the professions. â€‹
