• Available for a roughly 2 shifts per month providing 24 hour hospital coverage. Weekend coverage is a 48 hour shift.

• Will have at least 5 years’ experience, demonstrating full scope midwifery care including antepartum, intrapartum, postpartum and GYN (they will be taking pages from answering service as well and sometimes its GYN concerns).
