This is NOT a political thread. I am looking to hear from RNs working in clinics assisting with abortion procedures. Due to a personal calling, I think I am cut out for the job (with training!!!), but really need an insiders view. Is it scary, i.e. do you feel safe going to work? What do you tell people you do when they ask, and you are not comfortable with revealing your line of work due to the stima around it? Do you think as a new grad with experience in L&D and Postpartum I will be able to learn quickly and function well in the job? Sorry! So many questions!:nurse:But I would LOVE your honest and NONjudgemental responses.

Thank you all for your testimonials, which I am following whole-heartedly. I am still getting opinion, though. And that is not what I am looking for. What I am learning the most from are the postings from those who have worked in the field with AB. Too many make unfortunate assumptions. I LOVE BIRTH and LIFE, and have supported mothers, babies and their families through the amazing process that happens time and time again in L&D. But that is not the only story of life. Keep the testimonials about working at women's clinics coming. I am learning so much! THANK YOU ALL FOR SHARING! Being human is a life long experience!
