By rotation, I mean we have labor and delivery area, post partum/gyn area, and nursery area. So each day we come in, our assignment (which area) you go to is according to your date in the book. Most people like to work Labor and delivery, very little choose nursery of post partum. So they have us right our date in a book each time we are pulled to one of the other areas. So basically if you worked labor today, tomorrow more than like you'd be pulled to another area. So pretty much if you worked 3 days in a row, you would never be in the same area more than 1 or 2 days. I'm not sure if other labor units do the same, or if they have a team A,B,c and work according to that. For example, team A works labor 1 week, B-post partum, C-nsy. And then rotate the next week. I am honestly just up for suggestions bc what we are doing right now, doesn't work that well.

I work on an Ob unit that most nurses work all 3 areas (Labor, Post partum, nursery). We do not do mother/baby nursing. I am trying to get input on how other ob units Rotate their nursing staff. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you!
