专业概况

As one of the very top Nurse-Midwifery programs in the country, we offer unique clinical opportunities arranged by the School and exposure to the latest research. In addition, you’ll graduate with a skill set that far surpasses that of other institutions including endometrial biopsies, IUD insertion, and OB ultra sonography.

We prepare you for a midwifery practice focused on providing family-centered, comprehensive care to essentially healthy women and their families. We believe that the autonomous practice of nurse practitioners/midwives is based on the health promotion model and interdependent practice—a system that emphasizes the unique aspects each health professional brings to the care of a client.

Our graduates go on to become home-birth practitioners, birth center practice directors, directors of midwifery educational programs, and directors of CNM services in large teaching and small community hospitals.

Coursework

To develop well-rounded midwives, we offer courses ranging from advanced physiology and pathophysiology to the use of ultra sonography during pregnancy. We also cover public policy, complementary therapies, and fetal evaluation. You’ll become a highly competent clinician, and an effective and a culturally sensitive patient advocate while learning to manage a team within the varied systems of healthcare delivery.

Your clinical work can be completed in hospitals, birthing centers, and in home birth experiences, as well as abroad through international study opportunities. As an added benefit, clinical experiences and preceptors for our students are all arranged and coordinated by the School.

Upon completion of the Nurse-Midwifery program, the graduate will be:

• A safe, entry-level Midwife who meets the criteria of the American College of Nurse-Midwives (ACNM) for the practice of Midwifery
• A provider of primary health care for women throughout their lifetime
• Able to empower women to participate in their own health care
• A provider of women’s health care autonomously yet collaboratively within the context of an interdisciplinary health care team.
