Clinical hour requirements

World Registration

Published

I've been going through the process of my UK application, I'm currently registered in Australia, and I have most of it sorted out now. However with my clinical hours I haven't done any in midwifery while at Uni all in other areas.

Do I need to have clinical hours in midwifery or is there a way around this?

Thanks!
