For <strong>Lani Bamfield \u201917<\/strong> and <strong>Mimi Ho \u201915,<\/strong> that journey is taking them all across the country as NICU travel nurses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Back in early 2021, they decided to take a trip to Hawaii with another friend to celebrate Ho\u2019s decision to be a travel nurse. While on the flight, they attended to a baby born mid-flight, by a mom who didn\u2019t even know she was pregnant! Since then, their life has been \u201ccrazy,\u201d but they both believe Missouri Western prepared them for their life after graduation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt was one of the best decisions I could have made. I don\u2019t have any debt \u2026 and one of my best friends, Mimi, and I met there,\u201d Bamfield said of her decision to attend Missouri Western. And these two friends \u201cwill be going wherever the wind blows us,\u201d impacting lives in NICUs around the country, because of the education they received at Missouri Western.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI couldn\u2019t imagine going anywhere else. It was the perfect size. It wasn\u2019t too small, but it wasn\u2019t too big. The class sizes were great, so I think it was really helpful for me \u2026\u201d Ho said. \u201cThe professors prepared us to be out there in the real world, telling us what is going to be out there, what it is going to be like.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/magazine\/2021\/08\/23\/griffons-deliver-at-30000-feet\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">magazine website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to read the full story of Lani and Mimi\u2019s unconventional delivery at 30,000 feet.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-aligncenter\"><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-button.button-1 .fusion-button-text, .fusion-button.button-1 i {color:#333333;}.fusion-button.button-1 .fusion-button-icon-divider{border-color:#333333;}.fusion-button.button-1:hover .fusion-button-text, .fusion-button.button-1:hover i,.fusion-button.button-1:focus .fusion-button-text, .fusion-button.button-1:focus i,.fusion-button.button-1:active .fusion-button-text, .fusion-button.button-1:active{color:#333333;}.fusion-button.button-1:hover .fusion-button-icon-divider, .fusion-button.button-1:hover .fusion-button-icon-divider, .fusion-button.button-1:active .fusion-button-icon-divider{border-color:#333333;}.fusion-button.button-1:hover, .fusion-button.button-1:focus, .fusion-button.button-1:active{border-color:#000000;}.fusion-button.button-1 {border-color:#000000;border-radius:4px;}.fusion-button.button-1{background: #ffc700;}.fusion-button.button-1:hover,.button-1:focus,.fusion-button.button-1:active{background: rgba(255,194,14,0.78);}<\/style><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-custom button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/nursing\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text fusion-button-text-right\">Department of Nursing Website<\/span><span class=\"fusion-button-icon-divider button-icon-divider-right\"><i class=\"fa-angle-right fas\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":118,"featured_media":1817,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[22],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1833"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/118"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1833"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1833\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1948,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1833\/revisions\/1948"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1817"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1833"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1833"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/succeed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1833"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
