The self‐actualization of the certified nurse‐midwife

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to apply Maslow's theory of self‐actualization to the role of certified nurse‐midwife. The author explores the value system, the hierarchy of needs, and the manifestation of self‐actualization through selected personality characteristics. Self‐actualizing is the act of becoming, which is, of course, an ongoing process. The author points to the rich field of experience from which a certified nurse‐midwife can draw to satisfy high‐order needs.
