Midwives work as autonomous practitioners, and they collaborate with other health care and social service providers whenever appropriate. Individual midwives are responsible to the licensing authority and regulations of the jurisdiction within which they practice. The MANA Core Competencies are a living document. The Midwives Alliance of North America has also published practice guidelines, as reflected in the MANA Core Competencies for Basic Midwifery Practice. Pregnant individuals are the only direct care providers for themselves and their unborn babies, thus the most important determinant of a healthy pregnancy is the pregnant person.
