- Improving access to Maternity Care Services;
- Assisting families to obtain referral services and linking families to community supports where appropriate;
- Implementation of high quality and culturally safe services and work practices;
their psycho-social well-being;
- Contributing to evidence based practice to meet the culturally related needs of pregnant women and their families.

The AMIC Trainee / Practitioner receives day-to-day supervision, support and on-going clinical training from Registered Midwives, AMIC Practitioners and Doctors within the primary health care team. In a reciprocal arrangement, the AMIC Trainee / practitioner role is to develop the knowledge, skills and ability to provide advice, support and training in cultural issues, traditions and practices and to provide limited clinical care as delegated by the Midwife. Mutual respect for individual role expertise is a critical aspect of the model.
