What are some of your frustrations about your job in L&D?
For me...I can list quite a few, but I'll keep it simple:
1 - Triple and quadruple charting - more time spent on paperwork/computerized charting means less time I can spend with my patients. :uhoh21:
2 - The girls/women who are on public assistance and come in every 1-2 years bearing another child onto our already overly burdened welfare system. :angryfire
3 - Sometimes, feeling like you need to clone yourself so that you can adequately care for all of the patients you are assigned. On our really busy days, we can sometimes have 2-3 active labor patients at once.
