Welcome to the College of Midwives of Ontario
We regulate more than 1,000 midwives in Ontario. Our work ensures that anyone who chooses midwifery services can trust and feel confident in that choice.
Latest Updates
The College’s Record Keeping Standard was revised at the December 2022 Council meeting. The new standard comes into effect on April 1, 2023.
Registration Regulation Including the Emergency Class (Proposed)
Record Keeping Standard for Midwives
The changes to the Record Keeping Standard for Midwives are intended to update its content and provide enough information for midwives to understand what their responsibilities are to document in, and maintain, the client record.
Second Birth Attendant Standard
This standard was revised so it is achievable by all midwives by requiring midwives work with second birth attendants who are competent in NRP rather than certified in NRP.
Clinical Education and Student Supervision Standard
The changes made to the Clinical Education and Student Supervision standard were designed to tie all standards to the public interest and to the delivery of client care. The changes also incorporated the feedback received during the first consultation about professional behaviours and providing a safe learning environment for students.
