Our hospital has recently decided to switch from couplet care to traditional post partum care. I am wondering how other hospitals in OK handle this. Do you have certain nurses who take moms and some that take babies? If so, do you have 2 nurses going in and out of the pt's room all the time? And do the pt's have any complaints about not knowing which nurse to ask questions to? And do you keep a nurse in the nursery? We typically have 8-10 deliveries per night and normally have 4-5 couplets each. Thanks so much, any info is great!
