Rutgers School of Nursing in New Jersey has partnered with Axia Women’s Health to create new clinical training opportunities for students studying nurse-midwifery.
“We’re proud to help train and support the next generation of advanced practice providers,” said Thomas Dardarian, chief medical officer of Axia Women’s Health. “These providers play a critical role each day in our care centers, working in collaboration with our physicians to provide high-quality, patient-centric, comprehensive, and cost-effective women’s health care.”
The new collaboration will allow midwifery students to gain practical, real-world experience working at one of Axia Women’s Health’s many locations across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. With specialities in obstetrics, gynecology, fertility, maternal-fetal medicine, urogynecology, behavioral health, mammography, midwifery, and laboratory services, the health care network will provide students with the necessary clinical knowledge to become successful nurse-midwives.
“This partnership is an exciting opportunity to expand our clinical site options for students,” said Julie Blumenfeld, a clinical associate professor and nurse-midwifery program director at Rutgers School of Nursing at Rutgers Health. “We’re thrilled to be working with the highly skilled providers at Axia Women’s Health to ensure our students graduate with the relevant skills needed to deliver exceptional patient care with confidence and compassion.”
