BLOG 4: My future as a midwife.

My big dream is to be entitled of midwifery in the University of Chile and to be one of better professionals of the health in this area.

In the future I imagine, working as a midwife in Chile, specifically in the Metropolitan region, either in hospital or in the office, as this might have knowledge of both health systems and to decide which work permanently later.

I would like to work in shifts in both health facilities in the public sector, as well as the private, the ideal would be working during the day in the office attending to the users attending or birth control, and at night be attending hospital emergency departments in the area of obstetrics and delivering babies.

Preferably I would like to work in the public sector, as there are many women who do not have the resources to access private care because in my opinion is closer to the treatment given to pregnant women at the time of going to the consultations or at the time of labor.

Specialization I'd like to follow I have not yet very clear, but I called more attention to the area of neonatology, as I like a lot of babies.

Do not really very interested in having a specific posicion, the most important thing for me is to do my job the best way possible and give the user the best care.

BLOG 3: My favorite subject

My favorite subject of the career is "Embryology", which is of utmost importance for our career, this one is a branch of the biology that takes charge studying the formation and development of the embryo and of the fetus in the human species.

In this subject we see detailed what is happening every week of the development of the new being until he is formed completely. The most important contents are those events that happen in the first weeks such as: the fertilization, the segmentation, blastocyst formation, the implantation, the gastrulación, the formation of the nervous system, as well as also of other systems: respiratory, circulatory, digestive, etc.

The easiest topics of the embryology are the events that happen in the first week, such as the fertilization, the segmentation, the implantation and blastocyst formation, and the most difficult topics are those related to the formation of the different systems, as for example the nervous system.

The teacher who taught us the contents of this subject is the doctor Mariana Rojas, who was the manager of the unit of Biology of the development. Other teachers also participated, as Michael Concha, who also made us many of the classes that were taught.

In the practical works that were realized teachers were taking part in the different groups of students for a better learning.

The marks that I obtained on this course were very good, because the topics discussed were very well explained by the teachers, and are also subjects that are closely related to the career I'm studying, so the motivation to study was much higher.
