Midwives work in a variety of health care settings, including hospitals, medical practices, birthing centers and women’s health clinics.
AdventHealth University will help fill high-demand roles in women's health care through its new online Master of Science in Nursing – Midwifery degree.
"We look forward to inspiring and educating the next generation of compassionate and highly skilled nurse midwives," said C. Josef Ghosn, EdD, FACHE, president of AdventHealth University. "At AdventHealth University, we are committed to providing world-class whole-person education for our students and innovating to meet the health care needs of our community."

Graduates of this program will be able to practice as Certified Nurse Midwives, specializing in holistic care for women, including prenatal, childbirth, postpartum and gynecological services.
Midwives work in a variety of health care settings, including hospitals, medical practices, birthing centers and women’s health clinics.
The midwifery degree is designed for nurses aspiring to advance their career, and a bachelor’s degree is required.
Courses for this new degree are set to begin in the 2025 fall term. Clinical rotations will take place at AdventHealth hospitals.
The World Health Organization estimates a shortage of more than 300,000 midwives by 2030 if steps are not taken to increase educational opportunities and expand the midwifery workforce to meet women's health needs locally and globally.
"We are so grateful to work with AdventHealth University to develop the next generation of nurse midwives," said Kristen Toth, MS, vice president of women services and AdventHealth for Women. "At AdventHealth, our certified nurse midwives spend time getting to know patients and their families and providing individualized, evidence-based care."
