Nancy Boykin is the Chief Nursing Officer/Chief Operating Officer at HCA Virginia's Retreat Doctors' Hospital. I have been a nurse for over 26 years and started my nursing career at Henrico Doctor's Hospital. My clinical background includes Medical/Surgical, Oncology, Telemetry, and Intensive Care Unit. My leadership career started as a Nurse Manager of a NeuroVascular Intensive Care Unit and a Nursing Director for several units including the NeuroVascular Intensive Care unit, NeuroVascular step-down unit, Medical Oncology, Surgical Oncology, Cardiac Medical Intensive Care Unit, Interventional Unit, and the Progressive Care Unit. My leadership has been identified by Corporate HCA and is one of a small group of people with particularly high performance and strong leadership skills to be included in the CNO Executive Development Program for 2015 where I then transitioned to the Associate Chief Nursing Officer position at Chippenham Hospital. I later became the Associate Chief Nursing Officer at Henrico Doctors' Hospital and for the last 7 years, I have been the Chief Nursing Officer of Retreat Doctors' Hospital. In May 2023, I took on a duo role and assumed additional responsibility and became the Chief Operating Officer. My goal in obtaining my DNP in May 2023 is to continue to advance the nursing practice to bring evidence-based knowledge into the practice arena, improve healthcare outcomes and strengthen the leadership role in guiding complex care delivery and nursing education.
What is the difference between midwives, OB/GYNs, and high risk MFM specilaits? What about douals. and labor coaches? Is a midwive like an OB/GYN? Isn't a midwife just a doula? What are the differences between each? According the the American College of Midwives the definition of midwifery is: "Midwifery as practiced by certified nurse-midwives (CNMs®) and certified midwives (CMs®) encompasses a full range of primary health care services for women from adolescence beyond menopause. These services include the independent provision of primary care, gynecologic and family planning services, preconception care, care during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period, care of the normal newborn during the first 28 days of life, and treatment of male partners for sexually transmitted infections. Midwives provide initial and ongoing comprehensive assessment, diagnosis and treatment. They conduct physical examinations; prescribe medications including controlled substances and contraceptive methods; admit, manage and discharge patients; order and interpret laboratory and diagnostic tests and order the use of medical devices. Midwifery care also includes health promotion, disease prevention, and individualized wellness education and counseling. These services are provided in partnership with women and families in diverse settings such as ambulatory care clinics, private offices, community and public health systems, homes, hospitals and birth centers." The definition of an OB/GYN from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologist is: "Ob-gyns are doctors who have special training and education in women's health care. They are dedicated to the medical and surgical care of women's health throughout the lifespan. Ob-gyns who are members of ACOG are called Fellows or Junior Fellows. ACOG Fellows are ob-gyns who are board certified in obstetrics, gynecology, or both. They are identified by the initials FACOG after their name. ACOG Junior Fellows are ob-gyn residents or recent graduates of an approved residency program and not yet board certified. Some ob-gyns have extra training in a focused area of women's health care. These areas include: Female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery (focused on pelvic floor disorders, including pelvic organ prolapse, incontinence, and pelvic pain) Gynecologic oncology (focused on cancers of the cervix, ovaries, uterus, vagina, and vulva) Maternal-fetal medicine (focused on high-risk pregnancies) Reproductive endocrinology and infertility (focused on the hormones of the reproductive system and helping women who have problems getting pregnant)" The defintion of a doula or a labor coach from the Doulas of North America is: "A [doula] is a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informationl support to a mother before, during and shortly after childbirth to help her ahieve the healtiest, most satifying expericne possible." An MFM (Maternal Fetal Medicine) specilaist is: "Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) physicians are high-risk pregnancy experts, specializing in the un-routine. For moms-to-be with chronic health problems, we work with other specialists in an office or hospital setting to keep mom healthy as her body changes and her baby grows. We also care for moms who face unexpected problems that develop during pregnancy, such as early labor, bleeding, or high blood pressure. We're the go-to for moms who arrive in the hospital while they are pregnant for any reason, whether after an accident or at the onset of a kidney infection. In other cases, it's the baby who faces the un-routine. If we find birth defects or growth problems, we can start treatment before birth, providing monitoring, blood transfusions and surgery to support babies with the best possible care until they are ready to arrive in the world. Training A maternal-fetal medicine sub-specialist is an obstetrician/gynecologist who has completed 4 years of Ob/Gyn training followed by 2-3 years of additional education and clinical experience to develop specialized skills to help both the mom and baby before and during an un-routine pregnancy. Our training includes both medical treatment and complex procedures for moms and babies. We are high-risk pregnancy experts. Our extra training enables us to conduct and interpret research on new approaches for pregnancy problems. Through educational courses, development of clinical protocols, and research, we share our knowledge of optimal care for complicated pregnancies with others. Our overarching goal is to improve outcomes for moms and babies. Maternal-Fetal Medicine physicians partner with multiple caregivers to consult, co-manage or care directly for complicated situations, both before, during and after pregnancy. We know it takes a team --starting with the mother and her family--to navigate the un-routine and achieve the best possible outcome. When should I see an MFM Specialist? MFM specialists treat two patients at the same time. We partner with the mom-to-be, her family, and her medical team to navigate the un-routine and achieve the best possible outcome. We see families who have experienced un-routine pregnancies in the past, mothers with chronic health conditions, and women who develop unexpected problems during their pregnancy.

Like OB-GYNs, midwives provide personalized pregnancy and delivery care that emphasizes your and your baby’s well-being. But what exactly does midwifery care involve? Are they all certified? Where do they provide care? Are they only for when you are having a baby? Do they do the same things as OBs? What are the advantages of OBs, perinatologists and midwives working together? Dr. Oakley and Mandy Dalhover, CNM, from St. Elizabeth Healthcare have answers. The Lady Bod Podcast is presented by St. Elizabeth Healthcare and Physicians.
