Hi ,
I am curious about how other L&D nurses deal with an admitted primip, not ruptured , irregular uc's, not really progressing, but oh soooo in pain
( 1/th/high ), this being the reason for admit, and refusing pitocin ...and BTW, you only have 5 labor beds and are backed up with pts waiting for a bed. Now I am all for pt rights and stuff but....do you just babysit her or what ? too high for an "asrom" , of course, you could send her walking but she still officially has a bed....it can be very frustrating... And she has a right to decide how she wants to do it....do you give her a choice : you take the Pit or you hit the road ? well that would be rude, so how do you solve this ?
