The density of midwives graduates in Italy shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. The data indicates a consistent year-on-year decrease in the forecasted number of midwives graduates, with the density expected to decrease gradually by approximately 2.25% each year. This decline can point to potential challenges in the medical workforce, potentially impacting healthcare delivery for maternity services. In 2023, the density stood at a point before these forecasted declines, indicating a need for strategic adjustments.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential policy interventions to encourage more students to pursue a midwifery career.
Impacts on healthcare services, particularly maternity care, in response to a decreasing workforce density.
Emerging educational strategies or healthcare reforms to counteract the downward trend.
