Frontier Bound Class 65???
Am I correct in understanding we arrive for Frontier Bound on Monday between 12 and 5, and depart Friday morning. I think I may fly into another airport and drive down as there are several to choose from that aren't much further away than Lexington (Charlotte, Nashville) Depends on the ticket prices. Any thoughts on this?

Frontier Bound Class 65???
Frontier vs UCINN, several posts in another thread regarding this....I recall one stating UCINN didn't really have it "together" regarding clinicals...also Frontier basically invented distance education for CNMs, and are nationally ranked among the best, even compared with brick and mortars.

Appying to school, questions
I started in the labor room approx 2 months ago, love it. Have found it useful for evaluating options for my midwife practice. I'd recommend it, highly. I've found it useful to actually see the midwives in action as well as the ob/gyns. I would strongly recommed doing some l&d, although many go straight into midwife programs. I would never buy a car without a test drive...

I'm supposed to wear an "Ask me if I washed my hands!" button?!
I think that people working in fast food should also wear them.

Curious as to how many NICU nurses have previous personal experience in the NICU
I don't diagnose but it sounds like it may be nec.(necrotizing eterocolitis). A bacterial infection in the bowels, serious and life threatening.

"Old" vs. "New" Midwifery Books
I think that all midwives have a duty to use the most current evidence based practice and references out there. Your sister could seriously injury somebody or worse.

Would I enjoy being a CNM?
I am looking to apply for Frontier for the CNM program this fall but am getting soooo much negative feedback from my peers regarding midwifery in general from liability issues to the physical exams of women. Where is all this coming from? It seems very antiwoman. I really am feeling called to midwifery but the comments have me a bit concerned.

Best CNM program?
I have a question for anyone who has gone through the Frontier or UCinn programs...Were you able to work while completing your clinical or was that just not feasible?

Direct-entry CNM programs
What kind of nursing experience should I have prior to starting at a CNM program? OB/L&D for how long? Currently have 5 years NICU, looking to move into L&D this summer. Was it difficult to get your clinical sites and requirements with a distance program? I'm leaning towards Frontier. I like their philosophy, history and they seem very student focussed.
