Women’s Health Nursing Courses

More and more medical professionals are going into the area of women’s health. To accommodate this change, the University of Indianapolis is offering two new women’s health related options for School of Nursing graduate students.

For students in the Master of Science in Nursing program, a new women’s health nurse practitioner program is being offered. This program devotes “special attention to women’s health issues from preconception through post-menopausal care.”

The state is also offering a first-ever affiliated forensic nursing certificate program in their sexual assault nurse examiner certificate. This course helps “prepare students for the physical, psychological and legal/evidentiary needs of sexual abuse victims.”

Nice to see more attention paid to women’s health. I hope this trend is one that continues to other nursing programs throughout the country.
