American College of Nurse-Midwives (ACNM) 70th Annual Meeting & Exhibition is organized by the American College of Nurse-Midwives (ACNM) and will be held from Oct 10 - 13, 2025, at the Palm Springs Convention Center, Palm Springs, California, United States of America.

Description:
About Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs)/Certified Midwives (CMs)
CNMs and CMs are advanced practice midwives who provide primary care with a special emphasis on pregnancy, childbirth, and gynecologic, newborn, and reproductive health. While 95% of CNMs and CMs attend births in hospitals, CNMs/CMs attend births in birth centers and hospitals, too.

CNMs and CMs:

• Provide care, support, and advice during pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period, as well as care for newborns.
• Perform a full range of primary care services as well as gynecologic care, including family planning services, Pap tests, perimenopausal care, and breast cancer screenings.
• Prescribe medications including controlled substances and contraceptive methods; admit, manage, and discharge patients; order and interpret laboratory and diagnostic tests; and order the use of medical devices.
• Provide health promotion and disease prevention services.
• Focus on helping to make informed decisions, often creating bonds of trust and support that are increasingly rare in health care today. 

The 2025 ACNM Annual Meeting & Exhibition will bring together the largest concentration of CNMs and CMs in the nation, along with other women’s health practitioners, allied health professionals, researchers, faculty, community leaders, policymakers, self-advocates, and midwifery students in support of common goals to advance sexual and reproductive health and the practice of midwifery.
