Impact of sense of coherence and work values perception on stress and self-reported health of midwives.

CONCLUSIONS: In this study we documented relatively greater levels of stress and average levels of health and SOC among midwives. This paper confirmed that SOC had a positive impact on stress and health specifically for midwives. Uniquely, work values indirectly influenced the relationship between stress and health.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Improving SOC and WVs advance the health of midwives which will reduce the probability of leaving the profession.
