The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus seeks individuals with demonstrated commitment to creating an inclusive learning and working environment. We value the ability to engage effectively with students, faculty and staff of diverse backgrounds. The University of Colorado College of Nursing is seeking a Certified Nurse-Midwife (CNM) or Certified Midwife (CM) for a year-long Early Scholar in Midwifery position with its University Nurse-Midwives (UNM) faculty practice. This full-time position (1.0 FTE, benefits-eligible) will have primarily clinical responsibilities and would hold a faculty appointment in the IRC-Clinical Practice Faculty Track with dedicated time for a year to serve as the Early Scholar in Midwifery. The University of Colorado, College of Nursing currently has four academic midwifery faculty practices and a midwifery education program. The primary practice site will be UNM located on the Anschutz Medical Campus, in Aurora, CO. The Early Scholar in Midwifery position's dedicated administrative time will support the individual's practice, teaching, and leadership development goals. Faculty rank is dependent on experience and qualifications. Faculty Practice Description: UNM works collaboratively within the obstetrics and gynecology department and offers people many services including individualized care, group prenatal care, childbirth education, lactation services, behavioral health services, and referrals to specialty care with the University of Colorado and UCHealth systems. UNM provides full-scope midwifery care to individuals at the Anschutz Medical Campus and inpatient care to patients of STRIDE, a local Federally Qualified Health Center. UNM believes that people benefit from personalized and comprehensive care that focuses on the individual while including the support team in the plan. The practice provides care to families from many countries and strives to offer culturally appropriate care. This position is a faculty appointment and involvement in the College of Nursing is expected. The midwife will be part of a midwifery service that consists of 19 CNMs and has a long and successful history within the University of Colorado system. CU Nursing recognizes that Boldly Transforming Health is inextricably linked to a fundamental and integral commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). It is a pledge to critical consciousness in teaching, research, and scholarship, clinical care, operational practices, and service to the community. Toward that end, and in alignment with the Future of Nursing report, CU Nursing sees as its central aims: naming and addressing structural systems of oppression, striving to eliminate societal inequities, and working to advance health equity. As such, we seek individuals with demonstrated commitment to creating a justice driven and inclusive learning and working environment. Please provide a diversity statement (800 words or fewer) describing your professional commitment as a champion for diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-oppressive practice within higher education and/or your professional community, including past, current, and anticipated future contributions in these areas. Background: Studies show that racial and social injustices exist in health care education and in the delivery of clinical care at all levels. As the health care profession turns a lens to addressing the root causes of health care inequities, it is important for colleges of nursing to consider diversity and inclusion in the nursing and midwifery profession. Historically, advanced practice providers (APPs) have been at the forefront of caring for an underserved population. Since the onset of the profession in the United States, midwives, like other APPs, have cared for a significant proportion of patients who come from low-income and diverse households. Nature of Work: The Early Scholar in Midwifery is open to all CNM/CM applicants, with a focus on those who have an interest in working with or advocating for patients who have traditionally experienced barriers to accessing healthcare. This year-long opportunity provides mentorship in academic midwifery faculty practices. The Early Scholar will co-design their curriculum to match their professional goals (e.g., education, research, leadership) and will be matched with identified mentors across the Anschutz Medical Campus. The position includes dedicated clinical practice and teaching workload. Examples of Work Performed: Academic Engagement & Mentorship Engage in and receive mentorship in the academic pillars: scholarship, service, research, clinical practice, and teaching. Identify area of focus (e.g., clinical practice, research, leadership) with mentorship and dedicated time. Work with two primary mentors. One mentor will primarily be responsible for midwifery clinical practice needs, and the other to support professional and intrapersonal goals with the identified focus. Both mentors' primary job is to help ensure the fellow's sense of belonging within the college and the clinical practice. Clinical: Provide full scope care to the gynecologic, antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum client. Provide care in the outpatient setting, Obstetrics Emergency Department, and Labor & Delivery unit. Utilize limited obstetric ultrasound skills in the outpatient and inpatient setting. Attend monthly practice meetings. Educate health care team learners (APPs, medical students, residents) and actively participate in student evaluations. Collaborate with health care teams across all practice settings supporting research and quality improvement initiatives. Perform work in a health care environment with some exposure to biological hazards and infectious disease. Actively participate in health plan contracts. Remain credentialed by the health plans and ensure credentialing materials stay current.
