RN - L&D

Mercy Hospital Southwest - Bakersfield

Registered Nurse - Labor and Delivery

The role involves caring for Labor and Delivery, recovery, postpartum, and women's health patients. Nurses will manage the recovery of newborns as well. High-risk obstetrics is a significant focus of this unit, with the transfer of patients for major maternal or fetal complications. The unit comprises 18 Labor, Delivery, Recovery, and Postpartum rooms plus 6 triage spaces. It also includes 8 shared beds for overflow care and 2 operating rooms. Nurses must self-circulate during procedures. Certifications in BLS, ACLS, NRP, and advanced fetal monitoring are required. Patient ratios follow state guidelines at 4 to 1 for couplets and 2 to 1 for Labor and Delivery. A second NRP nurse is present at every delivery. Nurses will be responsible for starting their own IVs. There is 24/7 in-house OB and anesthesia coverage. A team of respiratory therapists and pharmacy staff are available 24/7. Nurses may be placed on standby as needed with a response time of 30 minutes if called in. All nurses will float between L&D, postpartum, cesarean sections, and women's health. Training includes a baseline orientation of 3 shifts. The unit operates under strong perinatal safety initiatives and focuses on evidence-based practices. Common patient encounters will include high-risk deliveries and postpartum care. The facility promotes immediate skin-to-skin contact for newborns and breast-feeding initiation. A lactation store is available on campus. The unit aims to reduce the number of low-risk primary cesarean sections and conducts regular chart audits. Nurses will follow strict protocols involving maternal health screenings and management of pre-eclampsia.

We offer competitive benefits, including:

  • Medical, dental & vision insurance
  • Free and unlimited continuing education units (CEUs)
  • 24/7 dedicated Care Line and clinical liaison support
  • Personalized career consultant and "single point of contact" service
  • Industry‑leading pay rates, loyalty rewards & referral bonuses
  • Free tax return assistance for travelers
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan
  • Health Savings Account (HSA)
  • Disability Insurance (Short-Term and Long-Term)
  • Life and AD&D Insurance
  • Paid Sick Leave (where required by applicable state or local law)
  • Supplemental Insurance Plans
