You will be qualified quickly and effectively in just 6 months, acquiring new knowledge and skills essential for the development of your career”

Over the last few years, it has become evident that natural childbirth has several advantages over the one performed in hospitals and clinics, not only in terms of its benefits and reduction of trauma, but also in terms of comfort and convenience for the mother and the baby. Neuroscientists have shown that during natural childbirth there is a release of hormones such as oxytocin, which has an analgesic effect and reduces stress during the procedure.

As such, nurses dedicated to this area should be aware of the latest scientific evidence that will allow them to offer the best care to their patients. Therefore, this program developed by TECH becomes an updating tool, aimed at presenting the most notorious and most influential advances on natural childbirth. 

All this through an informative compendium of great impact, accompanied by audiovisual resources, complementary readings and a convenient 100% online format, easily accessible from any device with an internet connection. This will allow professionals to take the program at any time of the day, balancing their daily tasks with the updating of their knowledge. 

In addition, it relies on the innovative Relearning methodology, offering a more immersive experience and of greater benefit by confronting the graduate with real and simulated situations. It is worth mentioning the participation of experts and specialists who have contributed their years of experience and knowledge to the study material.
