Thanks for your info. I didn't realize Sacred was so much bigger than the others.

I am moving to the Pensacola area soon. Can anyone tell me which areas if the city to avoid when looking for a house? And which hospital has the best reputation for their OB Unit? Any of the hospitals have CNM's that deliver there? Low C-sec and induction rates? Any info about the area appreciated.

I work in NE Indiana and the large hospital (Parkview) I use to work for quit using LPN's in OB in 2000. I now work at a smaller community hospital and we have one LPN in our OB unit. She mostly does nursery and she does unit assistant types of things ie: setting up for deliveries,vitals etc. She can be the baby nurse at c-sections if we need her to since she is NRP certified, but our section rate is so low we don't use her much for that. She is also a Lactation Consultant so that is probably why she is able to stay in OB. I don't think they would hire another LPN because their scope of practice is too limited.
