I have been a keen reader of the ozmidwifery site for some time, and have
always admired and respected the dedication, knowledge, and passion for
achieving a normal birth, that is continually portrayed on the site by
homebirth midwives.

They use Cervidil at Ashford, It has quite an
aggressive action provided it's inserted correctly. It's not easy to put
in however being extremely awkward. It's almost impossible to place it in
the posterior fornix.
One Ob described it to a patient as a tampon.
I found this very amusing as

I only know of a couple of private OB's who use it
at one of our local private hospitals. Most choose not to use it because of the
cost.
Hugs,Larissa.
My next question for the list is to ask of any
sites where Midwives are using cervidil.

Hi All,
I may be able to clarify a little the issue of midwives who choose to pursue
credentialling as a nurse practitioner. I agree that a midwife is a midwife

What I didn't say is in each NO1 there are 8 pay points, with NO2 there
are 4 pay points, NO3 4 all the way up to NO 10 I think is the top of

We are restricted by number of vacancies. Unfortunately the clinician

this suggests that the nursing )midwife) officer 2 role is like the
Victorian clinical nurse (midwife) specialist where the expert clincian is
recognised for her/his expertise. There is no limit to the number of CNS

Many thanks for the clarification. In VIC the
Midwives whose roles you describe might be any year level after qualification
and although would tend to be at least 2-3 years out, most would be a
rating of Grade 3 or above and include the Clinical Nurse (midwife) specialist
role which is a sit
As well, there are limited number of positions for NO2 so that
many midwives who is able to care for complex care patients are
restricted to NO1 positions purely because one does not get the
position and hence pay, on ability but on the number of such
positions avialable.

Me too, my clients come first. I rarely get time to do my portfolio's.
However I also have an interesting time on the QNU Council and ACMI
State Committee push midwives issues.

You are right. For me being a level 2 means I have my usual client load and
have to co-ordinate the ward/beds and deal with any crap that arises. Also
have to manage two portfolios (both incredibly boring and tedious). All for

thought so too Larissa, but did they have the insurance situation right? It
seems from the article that some midwives have been able to negotiate for
