If you do rooming in couplet care, what kind of emergency equipment do you have available at the bedside? I just relocated and have only spent one day on my new unit. So I go into the first room and start scanning the environment to find (shockingly to me) only an O2 flowmeter attached to the wall. No O2 tubing, no baby bag and mask, no ambubag, no wall suction, no yankauer, no 8F or 10F suction tubing!! So I ask my preceptor what do they do if they need to give the baby blow by. She says they call the neo team or take the baby to the well baby nursery to administer. OOOOOKKKAAAYYY, sooooooooooooooo what about discovering a PPH. I mean there are so many things that can happen where O2 would be one of your first actions. I could barely sleep that night thinking about discussing this with the manager and/or educator. I don't want to come across as the hot head RN from CA but I just can't feel that unsafe in my practice.
So, I'm wondering, is this common practice or would you freak out too?
