Integrating professional midwives into reproductive health care improves the quality of care and reduces maternal mortality and morbidity. A series of Spanish-language videos explains the expertise, training, and advantages that midwifery offers health care teams. The MacArthur-supported videos by the Metropolitan Group advocate for stronger integration of midwives into the Mexican health system, strengthening existing programs, investing in formal education, and building respect for and acceptance of midwifery as an essential element in maternal health care.
