Hello! I am a new RN grad working in obstetrics, and I would love to go on to become a Certified Nurse Midwife. Unfortunately, Minnesota (where I live) is saturated for Midwives and there are not projected to be any future job openings at this time. I would also like to go on to specialize in Lactation, but at this time the hospital I work at has several full-time lactation nurses and no openings. I do plan on getting some good OB, L&D, and nursery experience before going on, but I am just thinking ahead at this point. I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions on where I could go with my nursing career based on my interests. I do have family here, so I am not wanting to leave Minnesota at this time. Thanks much! Fawn

Hello! I am a student nurse writing a paper about the nursing profession. I would love any input from all you nurses out there on what it takes to be a professional nurse and what professional nursing means to you. Thank you!

I am a nursing student in my junior year going for my BS RN. So far I love the feild of nursing and I am excited to soon become a nurse, except for one thing...all the paperwork! I was wondering what specialties, if there are any, where there is minimal paperwork. Thanks, Fawn
