October 19 and 20, 2008 in Harrisburg , PA


Welcome!
The Pennsylvania Association of Licensed Midwives (PALM) is the organization that speaks for licensed midwives in Pennsylvania. PALM was formed to unify midwives throughout the Commonwealth in every type of practice setting. The organization was created so that midwives can speak with “One Voice” to legislators, insurers, and to other professionals; about issues which are unique to midwives practicing in Pennsylvania.

Our Mission Statement:
To be a unified voice of licensed midwives in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to facilitate the growth of the profession of midwifery, to promote the health and well being of childbearing families and their newborns, and women throughout their lifespan.

Objectives:

  • Ensure the integrity of independent midwifery practice in the Commonwealth
  • Provide professional representation at the state level
  • Promote safety in women’s health care in Pennsylvania
  • Create statewide access to midwifery care by removing barriers
  • Educate the public about the profession of midwifery
  • Facilitate communication among all licensed midwives of the Commonwealth
  • Create and maintain interdisciplinary and collegial relationships
  • Foster a nurturing support system for association members
  • Support midwifery education and research
