Answer to Question 1

ANS: A

In general, the booking interview is often the time when the woman will disclose a situation that may require referral. If this is because of something in her medical or maternity history, the midwife can discuss the recommendation for referral and, with the woman's informed consent, initiate the process immediately.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: False

Documentation in the clinical record should contain sufficient information to demonstrate the midwife's decision-making processes, especially in the context of labour.
