Who is the one that gives the sterile water injections into the back? Where does it get placed?

My hospital does not do any sort of wiping except if patient has a bowel movement during pushing.

There were many individuals in my nursing program that were not traditional students. Most of us were returning students after having other degrees and careers. Many of the "traditional" students were on time with being done in four years but there were some that had to repeat nursing courses or could not handle fulltime nursing school so they decided to not finish "on time" per se. No matter how long it takes you to finish go for it. Nobody was ever ostracized for not being a "traditional" four year student.

I am currently considering an online CNM program as well. I figured to post on this thread because it dives a little further into CNM schools as well as expectations of the sttudent. I am a current RN with my BSN. I am wondering approximately, how many hours is required for studying per week for a part time, 3 or 4 year program. I ask this because I am wondering the feasibility of doing an online program and continuing to work Full-time as well as take care of my two very young children along with my husband who is also in school. Many programs strongly recommend not working during clinical portions of the program. If you do part time, when exactly do clinicals begin? Is it in the last year? Or the last one or two years? I am just wondering how much of a time requirement is necessary. I am also wondering how "tech savy", so to say, you must be to be enrolled in an online program. Thank-you for any feedback. I think this post is great and was exactly some of the information I was looking for.
