PCA/tech OB

Hey guys. I recently applied for a PCA/tech job on an OB floor. The recruiter called and forwarded mg info to the floor. I was just wondering what type of skills techs typically perform on an OB floor. Thanks!

    I LOVED doing PKUs. I miss that. :( My circles were things of beauty.

    I have been an OB Scrub Tech for 4.5 years. On L&D we don't have OB Techs, we have to have a valid CNA license, NRP, and most importantly we have to be scrub techs because we are the ones who scrub the c/s's. During vag deliveries we mainly do babies vitals, clean baby, do footprints, weigh baby, do glucose test if we're checked off with POC, and take pictures at families request. Mother/Baby techs are CNA's and the only thing they will do will babies is feed them, change diapers, transport to/from nursery, and bathe. The rest is done by the nurse. Best of luck!
