Clinical Education

Clinical preparation is where midwifery training becomes practice. Heritage students complete 24 clinical credits under licensed preceptors, progressing through three supervised phases at birth centers and preceptor practices across Florida.

Three supervised phases

Every semester you enroll in clinical lab and work alongside a Licensed Midwife preceptor. Supervision steps back as your skill grows.

Level 1: Observation

Your preceptor performs all clinical tasks. You observe and assist when directed, building understanding in a real-world setting. Includes 10 birth observations.

Level 2: Assisted Practice

You perform clinical skills with your preceptor physically present and actively supervising every interaction. Includes 20 births as supervised assistant.

Level 3: Supervised Independence

You lead care with your preceptor available, and physically present at every birth. Includes 50 births as supervised primary midwife.

Your Clinical Directors

Every placement is arranged and reviewed by the Clinical Director for your region. Talk to yours before beginning any new clinical site.
