The Basic Fetal Heart Monitoring course is a comprehensive introductory program tailored for individuals who are new to fetal heart monitoring. In this session, participants will acquire essential skills for conducting fetal surveillance using electronic Fetal Monitoring. Throughout the course, participants will gain insights into the role of the nurse during the antepartum period and learn how to obtain the necessary information for conducting appropriate antenatal tests. Additionally, students will develop the ability to determine whether a patient requires internal or external fetal monitoring. The program will delve into the factors related to the baseline fetal heart rate, variability, and fetal heart decelerations. Furthermore, participants will learn to identify and respond to category II and III fetal heart strips. The Basic FHM course will also cover methods of uterine and fetal monitoring, as well as nursing interventions for non-reassuring patterns. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to practice assessments of FHR strips. While this course is perfect for beginners, we recommend that experienced RNs to consider attending our Intermediate or Advanced FHM courses. 

Nurses Educational Opportunities holds a genuine passion for women’s and children’s health. Most notably, maternal mortality rates in the United States have steadily increased; in view of this fact, we have sought to improve maternal outcomes by preparing nurses on how to adequately perform maternal child care. Accordingly, our instructors will ensure that learners feel ready to prepare mothers for a successful outcome. Lastly, upon completion of the Basic Fetal Heart Monitoring certification, students will acquire the skills to carry-out appropriate nursing interventions.
