3. New Grad working for an OB GYN

   cinthern replied to STNA's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I have been a labor and delivery nurse for 3 years, and last year took a job at an OB/GYN office that NEVER had an RN and I had NEVER worked in an office, so I can tell you a bit of my experience. I was straight up with the docs regarding my experien...

   cinthern replied to teensmom's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I feel like I am reading my own personal story. I have been working at a hospital for 3 years in the delivery room. Started full time nights, hated nights, no day spots to be had, so I accepted a position at another hospital 2 days a week, day shift ...

   My orientation was wonderful. They kept me on days for 8 months. Then another 4 weeks on nights, although by then I pretty much had it under control. I don't know any place that would do that. I went back to school to ONLY be a labor and delivery nu...

   Where will you be going to school? Are you starting from scratch, or returning to get another degree? This is my 2nd career, I ONLY wanted to do L&D, and I LOVE it. I am so happy doing what I do. What doctor's do you go to now?

   I LOVED Dr. Ascensio. She moved to Pennsylvania. Last time I saw her she had just had her second baby and was doing a delivery at the hospital 4 days after. She was crazy like that. Are you a nurse?

11. Please help with MAJOR decision

    cinthern replied to cinthern's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks for all who responded. I am siding on staying put because I know there really is no IDEAL job, and what I have now is not that bad, it's tolerable, so why jeopardize that "safety net" for a few more dollars and a day shift position. I have ano...
