Who are we?
We are registered nurses, nurse practitioners, certified nurse-midwives, researchers, and clinical nurse specialists who work in hospitals, outpatient settings, universities and community clinics.
We are just starting out, mid-career or executive leaders who all share a passion for healthy women and healthy babies.
We are parents whose lives have been touched by nurses.
We all have a story to tell. And we will be telling them once a week at AWHONN Connections.
Stories about nutrition, birth defects, breastfeeding, postpartum depression, touch, newborn screening, pre-term babies and full term babies, leadership, healthcare advocacy, and anything that touches the lives of women and babies.
Our stories will be empowering, heartbreaking, humbling, laugh-out-loud funny, and occasionally maddening.
Our stories will be real. Real nurses, real moms, real dads. Reals moms and dads that are nurses and nurses that everyday touch lives.
Every nurse has a story and every parent has had a nurse who has touched and impacted their lives. We thank you for your interest in our stories and your commitment to the health of women and babies.
