Nurse-Midwifery
Master of Science in 护理, Nurse-Midwifery
The master of science in nursing – nurse-助产士ry program at Loyola University 新奥尔良 prepares students to care for individuals through the lifespan.
With an emphasis on patient-centered care, Loyola’s curriculum promotes evidence-based practices that reduce unnecessary intervention and emphasize equitable, culturally-responsive care. 研究生s of Loyola’s MSN nurse-助产士ry will be prepared to provide advanced level primary and reproductive healthcare to women and individuals across the lifespan, including the following areas of practice:
- Gynecologic, reproductive, and sexual health
- Family planning and preconception care
- Antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care
- Neonatal care and lactation
- Primary and preventative health care through the lifespan
The MSN nurse-助产士ry program is designed to be completed in five semesters with continuous year-round enrollment. All courses will be conducted online synchronously (i.e. at scheduled times), except for supervised practicum work. This hybrid method of curriculum delivery allows students to attend class from the convenience of their home, while also ensuring the development of community for each cohort, which is essential for 助产士ry students. 研究生s of the MSN nurse-助产士ry program are eligible to take the national certification examination administered by the American Midwifery Certification Board.

关于 Our Faculty
The School of 护理 faculty are committed to ensuring that our nurse-助产士ry graduates are committed to social justice, care for the underserved and marginalized (particularly in rural settings), and are well versed in the issue of health disparities particularly as they affect the childbearing family. With inherent knowledge that the 助产士ry model of care can positively address the issues of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality in the U.S., faculty draw connections to this foundational knowledge throughout the curriculum.
Call the Midwife: Meet Dean Collins
The College of 护理 and Health Dean 米歇尔·柯林斯 is a certified nurse-助产士 who oversees the nursing, 咨询, and ministry departments at Loyola University 新奥尔良. In addition to her role at Loyola, Dean Collins maintains clinical practice as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), attending births at Ochsner Baptist Hospital in 新奥尔良. She also writes a blog for the PBS show “Call the Midwife,” where she reflects on the episodes and draws connections to modern nurse-助产士ry practices.
“Maintaining my clinical practice as an advanced practice nurse (certified nurse-助产士) makes me a better leader, 导师, 和教授. Being able to work with patients regularly in the hospital keeps me grounded and attuned to industry needs as well as better informed to strategize about future programs. It helps me stay current and credible with our students.” —Dean 米歇尔·柯林斯, College of 护理 and Health
