   CONGRATS! I’m interested in knowing what the clinical component is like. Do you get to choose your own preceptor or clinical site?

2. Should I still pursue CNM?

   seraphimid replied to ayada72's topic in CNM

   Have you thought of out of hospital birth? I know people who become CNMs knowing they will never want to work in a hospital. This limits your options for employment, but could be very satisfying long term if you found a place you liked.

   I’m almost certain they would not ask for references unless they were interested in offering you a position. They are far to busy to ask for references unless they were considering you as a candidate.

   seraphimid replied to Joe V's topic in COVID

   There are many pediatricians that will adhere to a delayed vaccine schedule if the family requests. Nurses I work with have told me they chose delayed schedules for their children based on different conditions. Maybe it’s a geographical thing.

    Science is a priori open to question and study by anyone. That's why it is science. Einstein worked out relativity and fundamental quantum physics on his clerk job lunch breaks. Can you show me a nursing or medical program where classes exclusively c...

    If you want to be humored, go to a comedy show. But to make a joke of the concerns of actual people, parents, and families is more of a tragedy if you ask me. ITP, GBS, and transverse myelitis are just three confirmed autoimmune conditions with vacci...

    Ok you’re right. I don’t question her patient care because that’s not up for discussion. But I still stand by the belief that the average citizen is intelligent enough to discern and make sound decisions. And if I thought they weren’t, it would refle...

    A major mask slip and hidden hate for the average human was also uncalled for. I don’t need an acronym after my name to advocate for humility.

    If anyone should be referring to the general public as average morons it is definitely NOT nurses.

    I wonder how many of your patients are “average morons off the street” and how exactly you treat them.
