ok. just. read that the writer is not posting anymore

can any of us get that. guide !!

Congrats. !!!!

Wow. that sounds really frustrating. I agree. with elkpark and maybe those. MD's. comments need to be reviewed. with higher ups asvto why he felt that way. These are special babies. that need our help and advocacy. Yes. the moms can be tough, I always tried to help both but my priority was to try to make that baby more comfortable. morphine. protocol. As far as the mom I always try to help her too. but have found it especially helpful that if me, the pedi and OB. can talk about a plan. Yes it's ideal. but worth a try Protect these babies 🙏

Wondering?? Is anyone in ambulatory care learning to do Pulmonary Function tests. and how. did it go. I need to learn and would appreciate any advice thank you

Awwww don't feel bad😔. I have been a nurse three plus decades and I feel we need to see more if this. WE/NURSES are a very proud group and with that comes passion and drive. I feel it speaks a lot to your determination and desire to get a good job. Relax !! I hope you made them think about hiring in a new way. I hope you get the job ! Chin up sweetie 👍🏻

As an experienced. L/D nurse I have often seen this "cutting down" on L/D orientation. done by a maybe new Nurse Manager that hasn't been. "on the floor" for a. long time. Have seen this and ends up causing high anxiety with new and experienced staff. So unnecessary .

Wondering.. I am a labor and delivery nurse and want to learn to scrub. We have to to the periop on AORN, and that is fine. Do other L/D nurses learn from other nurse or scrubtechs. Are your OB scrub techs professionally trained scrubs, and who should I be learning this skill from to be professionally and legally trained? In this specialty there are so many law suits!! Justwant to learn the right way?

Hi Everyone, Thank you for your posts. Wish me luck-- I guess test s still make me nervous , even after 35 yrs in nsg ty :)

Hi Thank you!! Both are very helpful comments

Has anyone taken stable recently. Is there a pre test, and what kind of preparation should I do for the course. Is it difficult. Is the test hard to pass? Any suggestions or info greatly appreciated. I have never taken it before TY

Hi Thanks for your posts. My concern is if there are not enough shed. sections maybe 4-5 week and a scrub tech does those, it frustrating. If I do some on the job training, peri op training, ect how do the the nurses STAY competent

Hi I know these post make me sad. DO NOT give up. We have been there I did a nursing change at age 49 to labor and delivery. It was tough handsome days I ask myself-- "should I stilled this" It is a special time in a women's life. I like the previous posters advice. I would go to a less critical L/D floor. You need to have days that you feel like you did a good job, to feel good about what you do. I hope it is going better
