Midwife to midwife: Midwives and cervical smears

Abstract:

Overseas experience has shown that well organised, centrally coordinated programmes are the most efficient method for organising screening. Such a centrally organised programme was a recommendation of the Cartwright Inquiry (1988), consistent pressure from the women of New Zealand and publicity by the media.
