Seeking two Certified Nurse Midwife's to complement our Origin Health team!
Come to work in the beautiful Garden City of Missoula, Montana. We are a Womens Health Center consisting of Midwifery, Obstetrics, Gynecology and Maternal Fetal Medicine. We are looking for a flexible, energetic, highly motivated professional to help us grow our midwifery practice. Principal responsibilities include full-scope obstetrical and well gynecological healthcare in a midwifery clinical practice that provides 24/7 call and both in-hospital and out-of-hospital deliveries.
Our practice currently consists of 4 full-time and 1 part-time CNM. While we currently deliver at the hospital, there are plans to expand our practice to include out of hospital birth at a freestanding birth center. Work schedule is variable, with an average of 2-3 days a week of clinic or call and every 4th weekend (though this is subject to change).
Responsibilities Include:
Prenatal, intrapartum, and postpartum care of low-risk pregnant patients, as well as collaborative management of high-risk patients
Delivery of patients and management of obstetrical emergencies in both the in-hospital and out-of-hospital setting
Well gynecologic care including annual exams, contraception, menopause, vaginitis, and STI screening and treatment.
Supervision and education of students (NP and midwifery)
Management of OB Triages for both CNM and OB patients
Appropriate consultation with backup OB providers for patients with medical and/or obstetrical problems, and for patients requiring antepartum admission.
First assist for cesarean deliveries and assistance with other surgical procedures such as cerclage placements and ECVs.
Staying up to date on professional development and continuing education, to provide evidence-based patient care.
Working collaboratively and communicating effectively with colleagues.
Eligible or current licensure as an APRN-CNM in Montana
Current NRP and BLS certifications
Experience with a wide variety of birthing techniques, including waterbirth
Gynecologic skills; pap smears, IUD and Nexplanon insertion and removal
Management of a broad spectrum of women’s health conditions, including abnormal bleeding, contraception, menopause, and basic primary care
Experience with obstetric emergencies or at least knowledge of management techniques
Comfort with co-managing “high risk” pregnancies with MFM, including HTN, diabetes, VBACs, and other pregnancy complications
Willingness to first assist for cesarean deliveries and assist with other procedures such as cerclage placements (can be trained on the job)
1-2 years of experience practicing as a full-scope CNM preferred, however the right new graduate CNM will be considered.
Our midwifery practice is a part of Origin Health, a high-risk Maternal Fetal Medicine (MFM) and Obstetrical practice. Our skilled Roots and Women's Health providers are experts at caring for healthy women and low-risk pregnancies from periods and birth control to pregnancy and menopause and everything in between. We provide evidence-based, holistic care and work with patients to make the best health choices for them and their families. Our providers at Roots Birth & Women's Health not only provide prenatal care and deliver babies in a hospital setting, but they also provide gynecological care. The Roots midwifery practice is part of the Origin Health family and partner with MFM/Obstetrical team, we believe in the power of collaboration.
