GYN Floor

I’ve been at my current job for the last 4 years and feel extremely burnt out. I’ve applied to Antepartum and the manager said she wants to hire me but due to COVID and census they are not hiring at the moment. There’s a night position on a GYN floor so I’m wondering what that would entail? I’ve tried googling but it all goes toward OB. Thanks in advance!

I'm guessing it's going to be mostly post-op - hysterectomies, bladder slings, gyn-onc, possibly mastectomies. It might be some pre-viable antepartum, such as admission for hyperemesis gravidarum or pyelonephritis.

Thank you for your response:)

What Klone said is what we get on our unit. Basically anything that can happen to a female reproductive system we get.  Our patients range from 18-110 years old with a variety of reproductive issues. Lots of hysterectomies and bladder & prolapse repair surgeries. Lots of gyne oncology patients that are admitted for a variety of reasons, such as chemotherapy, symptom management and surgeries. We will even have palliative patients on the unit.  We will also have any antepartum patient admitted to hospital. Some reasons would be PIH, GDM, hyperemesis and previas. As well as dealing with miscarriages up to 22 weeks.
