Mindy K

"Very engaging speaker. Much better than I expected!"

Sue S

"I am a recovery room nurse in MN where we get all patients that have had an emergency c section and I have been involved in hemmorrhage situations and recently a case of amniotic fluid embolism. I just wanted to know more about the population and how to handle things. I learned so much as I have never been an OB nurse. ( background PICU- BMT) Great class. I have to say I had to look up several abbreviations during the lecture as they were new to me, but it was easy to do. "
