What will I learn?
Nurses can learn STI testing/treatment and the pregnancy sustaining progesterone therapy process (abortion pill reversal).
Nurses that are already proficient in limited OB ultrasound will be encouraged to utilize this skill, but Pro-Life Nurse Missions will not offer training in limited OB ultrasound.
If a trainee is not trained in limited OB ultrasound, CompassCare’s onsite sonographers will serve in this portion of the patient appointment.
Is it safe in New York City?
The Economist rates New York as one of the top 15 safest cities in the world. It’s also one of the top 5 safest big cities in the US. For short-term visitors, that means exercising “normal precautions” in the Big Apple.
What is the dress code?
Business casual with closed toe shoes. A short-sleeved lab coat will be provided by Pro-Life Nurse Missions to each nurse for in-office use.
