I finally have the nursing job of my dreams and have yet to start orientation, so I've been reading these threads to get an idea of some ins and out's that I'm not already aware of. I have floated to PP in the past on night shift when I worked med/surg.
Can someone give me an idea of what your typical day entails? I know with med/surg I started the day with 800 meds then 1200s, 400s, 800s etc... In between there were the dressing changes, crazy senial old folks trying to escape, measuring fluids constantly, etc... I imagine mother/baby will be similar but with a different patient population, less scheduled meds, and more patient education.
