I am looking into buying a existing birthing center and wanted to know if as a RN I could be the owner? I would keep the current midwife on staff and obviously have midwives as the providers. But would I be able to own and run the center as a RN without an advanced practice degree?

You’d need some way of evaluating practice, which you couldn’t do if you’re not a midwife. I agree, an atty specializing in this field would be a smart consult. Also call your state board that licenses such facilities and check their requirements for licensing them.
