  2. NICU travel to CNM

    nja06 replied to nbl01's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    nja06 replied to nbl01's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I graduated from Georgetown in November 2020 with a class of about 10. I chose it based on the dual degree and the clinical placement team. Clinical placement was a real pain although they always came...

    CNMS are the only midwives that can work in every state and every setting (out of hospital and within hospital). You have to get a separate license for your state and different states have different...

  8. NICU travel to CNM

    nja06 replied to nbl01's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I don't think it is necessary, but it could help you got a lot of the fundamental exposure, knowledge, and skills started before you began as a student midwife. Because you have been in NICU I'm sure...

  13. Canceled Contract

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    Thank you! I thought getting it written in my contract and discussing it during the interview would be enough, but it should have been covered again before I signed. I thought I was covering all my...

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    no, you were not the only one that said that, even though the way you said it was not in the nicest way which is unlike the way anyone else wrote to me. I am a rather new traveler and did not...

    Yeah I wish I could have trusted my company had made sure all Tuesdays were actually off the table. It would have saved me a lot of

  18. Canceled Contract

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    This feels a little insensitive. I know travelers are hired to be flexible but I thought my needs were discussed and approved (multiple times). I was not expecting a red carpet, just reason. In the...

  19. Canceled Contract

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    Thanks so much for your detailed advice. I will ask my recruiter about a cancellation fee. My team did reach out on Friday when I received the first week instructions and we tried to resolve it to...

  23. Canceled Contract

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    That makes sense. I would have been flexible but I am a grad student NP. I have live tests on Tuesdays. I had to choose between school and this new job;I wanted to have both and I thought I could. I...

  24. Canceled Contract

    nja06 replied to nja06's topic in Travel

    I think this is precisely what happened. It's just a blanket statement in my contract 'no Tuesdays' but they told me that this would be the only one. It was an oversight since I didn't get...
