  1. Following this thread, but I was sent the following breakdown of the study from my birth workers group from Science and Sensibility helpful in understanding the overall aims and outcomes of the study...
  2. Entry level MSN & becoming NP

    That makes more sense and explains my own confusion since you are still in the middle of trying to decide on the path that is right for you. Whatever path you choose good luck to you and hopefully...
  3. Entry level MSN & becoming NP

    So it looks like you have narrowed down the Master's Entry programs that you are interested in to the ones that will allow you to become a RN and a NP after three years of study. I am glad that you...
  4. Hi everyone. I know that this thread is old but wanted to add my information here as well since there are so few male identified midwives around in general. If there are other men (or women) that are...
  5. Entry level MSN & becoming NP

    Yes, like I mentioned previously there is no pre-req standardization with NP programs when it comes to the various schools. You will have to narrow down your choices otherwise you will be taking...
  6. Entry level MSN & becoming NP

    You are very welcome, all I ask is that one day you will pay it forward whether here on AN or when you are in school if someone is confused or doesn't know how to navigate nursing or the application...
  7. CNA to midwife?

    There are are a couple of paths to midwifery. I am also assuming that you currently reside in the United States. I suggest as a first step that you go to www.midwife.org and look through that website...
  8. Entry level MSN & becoming NP

    I think I understand your confusion. Let me see if I can help to clarify since I just finished the process myself but there are many schools that offer Master Entry Programs but they might be called...
  9. UCSF MEPN 2018

    A place for individuals applying to the UCSF 2018 MEPN program to contact each other, share information, support each other, and provide
  10. Echoing labordude: Men can go into any aspect of nursing if they have a genuine interest in that particular specialty and if they approach said specialty with respect and an openness to learn...
  11. Yale GEPN 2018

    You would be in the minority if you do not complete at least some basic pre-requisites. While the Yale GEPN program doesn't "require" pre-reqs, the majority of the applicants have at least the basic...
  12. UCSF MEPN PreReqs

    No, they do not have to be different class codes. When you open the application for the first time, you will see further instructions but essentially, you will just put the same course code for both...
  13. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2018-2019

    Just to add to this thread that the NHSC Scholarship opened on April 10th so those of you who are interested can apply but we are still waiting on Nurse Corp Scholarship which is still closed for...
  14. Maternity Class

    I personally love all things maternity and am looking forward to my maternity rotation. I am most likely the minority in this as a dude but the female reproductive system is way more complex then it...
  15. Should I get a bachelor's before BSN?

    Totally agree with what @Rb72390 said. Community colleges are undervalued. I did all my pre-reqs at a community college and it was great plus I saved a lot of money. I got the classes I needed and...
  16. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    All great comments and noted with regards to GYN skill sets. I haven't started my program yet but I will see which is more heavily emphasized and try and take further courses or take clinical...
  17. Like most of the respondents on this thread, I have always been a very high introvert even as a kid. But like all adults we have to go to work and work with other people so I have learned how to...
  18. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    Just realized I had a typo. I meant to say: Okay, I asked around and according to what I was told, the reason that some of the APRN programs started offering dual specialty CNM/WHNP was that it was...
  19. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    Okay, I asked around and according to what I was told, the reason that some of the APRN programs started offering dual specialty CNM/WHNP was that it was easier to get midwives credentialed in certain...
  20. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    I will ask for some clarification about why this is the case for this one specific hospital. The only other thing I'm unclear about is why if CNM covers everything a WHNP does, why then do some...
  21. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    Noted. Midwives can also see the women's gero population post menopause. Will add to my notes. Thank
  22. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    This is a question that I have asked before as I researched CNM programs so thank you to everyone that has provided answers. I know that the thread is old but I wanted to add that in CA where I am...
  23. Hands On Experience/Preceptorship?!

    Thank you for the information! I am watching it now on PBS so it is still available. Even though I am not going to be attending a For Profit school, it does help to understand a little more about...
  24. Yale GEPN 2018

    The date to let Yale know whether you are accepting their offer of admittance was last Friday, March 16th. I know it is hard, but you might need to wait a few more days since today is the first day...
  25. Hi everyone, I have been reading the midwife thread for about a year now and after 2 years of pre-reqs and 1 year of applications, I found out this week that I have been accepted to a few of the...
