NURS 7618 - Nurse-Midwifery Residency

This is the final clinical course for women's health nurse practitioner and solidifies their transition to a safe beginning practitioner. This residency experience is at sites that best match the students' learning needs. Faculty determine the site in collaboration with students. Students are expected to apply previous didactic and clinical knowledge and experience in the care of women throughout the lifespan. During the Residency experience, students function semi-autonomously under the supervision of a variety of preceptors. Women's Health Nurse Practitioner students will register for 6 credit hours. Students who are completing both the Women's Health nurse Practitioner emphasis and the Nurse Midwifery emphasis will determine the number of credit hours needed in consultation with Program faculty. This is a Credit/No Credit course.
