Abstract

This article presents prospective data from Phase II of Nurse-Midwifery Care to Vulnerable Populations in the United States, about home-based health care, including home birth, provided to women and infants by CNMs and the type of practice in which these services are provided. Forty-one certified nurse-midwives collected data on 1,739 client visits, of which 234 occurred in the home. The results indicate that the majority of home visits occur within a practice setting that includes more traditional modes of service and that a proportion of women choose home as the place for health care.
