🎉 While we celebrated our graduates (now alumni!) earlier this week, we’re not forgetting our new BSN students! We held our Call to Care ceremony for our most recent accelerated BSN class, which started classes earlier this month. During the Call to Care ceremony, everyone received nursing pins, which symbolize their commitment to delivering compassionate, patient-centered care. We’re excited to see where their nursing journeys take them, and we’re proud to call them future CU Anschutz nurses. 💕

Meet the inaugural class of our new Master of Science in Midwifery program! They officially started classes in June on their journey to becoming certified midwives. The program doesn’t require a nursing degree. It prepares students to support families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, just like the college’s MS in Nurse-Midwifery program.

Learn why these students chose to become certified midwives, and how they hope to improve care for women and their families.

CU Anschutz College of Nursing added a new Master of Science in Midwifery (MSM) program. The program prepares students to become certified midwives (CMs).

Check this out: We co-hosted a two-day symposium for healthcare professionals from across the Four Corners in partnership with Fort Lewis College. The symposium gave providers an opportunity to practice responding to medical situations in a safe environment. They participated in simulation exercises, an interactive OBGYN escape room, and networked with other healthcare professionals. Read more about the symposium and how it’s helping improve care in rural communities:
