  4. Any Frontier Nursing class 134 FNP applicants

    I think that would be awesome. I am really excited to get to know all my classmates. Should we do both FNP and CNM classes? (And WHNP of course) or stick with the smaller cohorts?

  8. Can CNMs in Utah attend homebirths?

    Sorry I didn't reply sooner, photobooklady, I don't think I was notified of your post. Actually, there were several I never saw. Yes, due to my humble financial status I am receiving generous grants and loans from the government. I would welcome a...
  9. Can CNMs in Utah attend homebirths?

    Utah, midwives - please help me. I want to be a midwife attending primarily homebirths and center births. After something of a personal crisis I decided to pursue CNM instead of CPM, or DEM. My main reasons are 1) the government will pay for my ed...
  10. Advice on CNA 30 Years Later

    You can do it! Lots of lifting and standing, but you'll quickly learn ways to do it fairly easily. Depending on the facility you're at, you may have more or less lifting and standing to do, some places really don't do much heavy lifting, but more h...
  11. Can CNMs in Utah attend homebirths?

    Hooray! I've found a CNM in Utah who attends homebirths. It's amazing how hard I had to look to find her, though. I'll be getting in touch with her. Thanks!
  12. Can CNMs in Utah attend homebirths?

    Thanks, Apgar. I see what you're saying about licensing. You're right - there's certainly nothing in the state licensing law limiting the practice setting of a CNM, and the "consulting physician" doesn't need to be present or even supervisory. I'm ...
  13. Can CNMs in Utah attend homebirths?

    Thank you, Sienna - the state fact sheet for UT at ACNM didn't list homebirth in CNM practice areas - not that that necessarily excludes it, but it's not too encouraging. I couldn't get to the state by state laws and regulations page because I'm not...
  14. New Grads, A Few Words of Encouragement

    "A bachelor's degree in social work (BSW) is the most common minimum requirement to qualify for a job as a social worker; however, majors in psychology, sociology, and related fields may qualify for some entry-level jobs, especially in small communit...
  15. a male midwife??? :S

    I think male midwives can be excellent! My midwife apprenticed with a male midwife, which seemed strange to me at the time, but doesn't now. Midwifery is about empathy and the model of care, not about the genitalia you have. However, I do understan...
  16. "Hippie" Image

    People can be really funny about midwives. I told one girl I want to be a midwife and she said "what's a midwife?" I explained they catch babies and she assumed I meant I wanted to be a neonatal nurse. I didn't bother to correct her. In any case, ...
  17. How good at science do you have to be to succeed in this field?

    Discovernursing.com has a list of nursing programs with no waiting list. It figures that these programs are not unbelievably selective, either. I am taking pre-reqs at Snow College (Utah) - one that's listed on the no-waiting list. My study partne...
  18. New Grads, A Few Words of Encouragement

    Hello, Friends! I'm a student with one semester of pre-reqs left before I can apply to my local BSN program. I hope I can help out some of the new grads. First off, I can't say for sure, but my mom tells me that Verdugo Hills Hospital in Glendale, ...
  19. online chemistry class

    Does Educan offer the Lab portion online? And also, does the SUNY? How much is the SUNY tuition?
  20. Chemistry with Lab online

    Does anyone know if the iowacc class includes the lab portion? I am planning on taking WSUs class this summer but it's so expensive! I need a lab component to apply to the nursing school I want to apply to.
