Re: CNMs and Water BirthsFrom: Len2976@aol.comThu Nov 2 16:56:32 2000
The L & D unit in a nearby community has recently purchased a pool or tub for water births. I do not practice at the hospital but I know several CNMs on the staff. None of them (nor even any OBs or neonatology) were consulted. I understand the decision was made (by peds and neonatology) NOT to have water births. However after numerous telephone requests by patients, the hospital paid for one CNM from each practice to go to a "water birth" conference. The CNMs, while not initiating the practice, are willing to accomodate those patients who desire them. Lenora McCall, CNM

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
