Integrative Resuscitation of the Newborn With Karen Strange

We are excited to announce that we will be sponsoring another Integrative Resuscitation of the Newborn class with Karen Strange on January 8th, 2014! 

As midwives working in an out of hospital setting we cannot emphasize enough how we appreciate and rely upon the skills taught in Karen's class. Not only do we learn how to perform the life saving skills of newborn resuscitation, use of oxygen and pulse oximetry, and benefits of delayed cord clamping, we learn about how these interventions are experienced from the perspective of the newborn. When we embody this awareness and understanding of the newborn it allows us to be conscientious during the resuscitative process while promoting bonding and attachment and minimizing birth trauma.

Karen Strange will be covering Neonatal Transitional Physiology and the evidence-based studies behind the guidelines. She presents a broader understanding of how to think about resuscitating a newborn. This perspective is way beyond the normal AAP/NRP course, and you get “the card”. Karen helps participants "make sense" of how the autonomic nervous system works within us. She provides a process for delivering skills in all emergencies. She demonstrates the baby's perspective and experience of birth, as well as tools for babies regardless of where they are born and what happens to them during the birth. She conveys with clarity and shows us how babies communicate.
Participants will experience a perspective not presented in any midwifery course or training which will expand how one approaches birth and babies.
