    AOX4RN replied to smellyacres's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LOL, the sodium and potassium pumps are haunting me several classes down the line. It's the only thing I remember from A&P because my professor said that we'd better KNOW IT because it will keep...

    AOX4RN replied to SiennaGreen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So is one of our county schools. We applied in August but have to wait until November to find out if we made the cut to the lottery. In December we find out if we got picked from the lottery....

  11. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Exactly. One of my hospital based CNM friends has said when she's got the deck call and encounters a woman she's never met, she doesn't exhort the energy in serious education. It was the job of the...

  12. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just short of utopia it sounds because everything is "her call", except how her baby is treated once it is outside of her

  13. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Oy. It's unfair to all midwives to call this type of person a midwife. And FWIW, it is this type of "midwife" who helps color our profession in a negative

  14. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I am currently in practice as a midwife attending home births (on the waiting lists for ADN; finishing BSN transfer reqs). As a CPM I've hit the "glass ceiling" so to speak. I have a limited scope...

  15. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I attended an accredited midwifery school to become a CPM. There is a pathway for students to become CPMs without attending a school per se, but they are required to complete equivalent educational...

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I should've been more clear that although I quoted your message, I was addressing everyone in this thread (or reading it) who draws the line in midwifery between lay midwives and nurse

  17. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    What is the definition of a lay midwife in 2008? And how does that differ from a professional midwife to make one better than another? I seem to to be the lone direct-entry midwife (meaning not a...

  18. Do you think midwife deliveries are less safe than doctor deliveries?

    AOX4RN replied to slippery_seal's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Actually an apprentice midwife is one who is under the direction of a senior midwife, period. I was an apprentice to a CNM, not a CPM. The CM is not getting phased out, it's a credential offered for...

  21. Online group papers?

    AOX4RN replied to dallet6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    IMNSHO psych classes are odd period The only class I've had to do group work is in A&P and micro. My classmates were all gung ho to get a decent grade so I didn't have trouble. Email your...

  22. No more free birth control in California

    AOX4RN replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in California Nursing

    Did s/he provide a citation? The Medi-Cal and Family Pact sites have nothing to this effect. The Family Pact bulletins include September '08 CPT code updates and formulary updates, so that would...
