After completing my bachelor of science in nursing there are numerous possibilities of careers paths I can take. A particular area of nursing that interests me is perinatal or post partum nursing. Nurse specialists in this area can work in ambulatory care settings, and may specialize in maternity nursing, maternity-newborn nursing or neonatal nursing. Nurses in this field provide care and support to women and their families before, during, and after childbirth. They also educate mothers about natural childbirth techniques and pre-natal health, provides comfort during delivery, and teaches a mother about mother-child bonding after the baby has been born. Requirements for this type of work are dependent on the hospital or facility in which you work, but most will require additional courses and prerequisites.
