Ready to travel as an L&D nurse?

Specialties Ob/Gyn

Published

Hi everyone! I have been a nurse for three years with one year experience in mother baby and two years in L&D. I have my C-EFM and work nights in a community hospital that does about 250 deliveries a month. I have experience with lady partsl exams, caring for patients on mag for various diagnoses, preterm labor, triage, diabetic patients, circulating in c-sections but no scrubbing as we have CST's. I have experience with IUPC's and we just started doing amnioinfusions. I have a lot of autonomy as there are no residents where I am and working overnight. I'm just wondering if I'm ready to travel with only two years of experience and if my experience is sufficient. Would love to hear all your opinions and advice! Sorry if my experience list is a bit garbled just coming off of working 3 night in a row 😊

Specializes in CCU, SICU, CVSICU, Precepting & Teaching.

Are you ready to hit the ground running and handle whatever is thrown at you in a strange hospital with minimal (or no) orientation? If yes, then you're ready to travel.
