Easily 400+ per month! Whew, I'm tired just thinking about it!

We have about 30 babies a month here in our rural hospital. We have 4 LDRP rooms, 1 C/S suite and 4 C/S PP rooms. :lol2:

Just out of curiousity, how many deliveries a month do you all have at your facilities, and how many labor rooms do you have to accomodate them?
We have had 400+ babies 3 out of the last 4 months, and surely will this month too.
Just wondering!

Rae and Moondancer,

you didn't say how many rooms you have. Jeez! I can't imagine doubling us I am beat as it is most nights. Do you do one on one for active labor or is that just impossible?

We have 200+/- every month. We have 18 LDRP's and 2 other possible rooms (usually these are used for DIU's). We then have 12 other rooms that we only use for ante or overflow of pp patients. We have 5 triage rooms and 2 nst beds in one room. It has happened that we've had to deliver pt's in triage.

Oh, and one OR suite.

Approx. 300 deliveries per month

11 LDR's

2 ORs

3 Recovery beds

6 antepartum beds

5 triage rooms (5a - 8p)

and one little strange room that is in the middle of all the LDR's but is the size of an antepartum room. We usually use it for triaging pt's in the middle of the night that we think will probably go home.

New to my facility but it looks like about 200+/- a month not sure maybe more (only been here one month) without asking someone and I'm at home now.

4 triage rooms

3 ORs and a PACU

Antepartum unit with 6 LDR possible rooms and 6 other rooms (1-2 of these has become storage during recent renovations)

L&D unit with 12 LDR rooms (one of which can function as an emergency OR)

babyktchr, BSN, RN · Sep 12, 2005

100 deliveries a month

6 LDRP rooms

6 med/surg or PP beds

2 triage rooms (that double as delivery if needed)

we don't do c/s on our unit, they go to OR

one doctors call room (we have delivered there too)

Our med/surg area is for gyn purposes, but often gets used as overflow when the hospital is full. We get ANYTHING not infectious there.

We DESPERATELY need more space.

JenTheRN · Sep 12, 2005

Wow...our deliveries look really puny compared to the rest of you guys. I say we average in the 20's per month. This year has been really slow tho. We have 3 LDRP's, one triage room, and 4 post-op/C/S rooms. We do most of the post op GYN stuff here too.

fourbirds4me · Sep 12, 2005

About 100 del/month

4 (large) LDR rooms

2 (Small) LDR rooms... usually use these for outpatients or delivered mags or IUFD... but can deliver in them if needed

2 ORs

1 "exam room" we usually only use for overflow

15 pp rooms (separate unit) that also take gyn surgery
