The unit has 14 labor and delivery beds and two operating room suites for cesarean sections. RNs will circulate and recover patients in the OR. The hospital supports an average of 90 births per month. Common patient diagnoses include hypertension requiring magnesium, gestational diabetes, and conditions needing medical intervention and pain control. The population served is diverse with varying backgrounds and healthcare needs. Nurses are required to titrate medication drips, including pitocin, magnesium, and insulin. There is an administrative supervisor on every shift. Charge RNs do not take patient assignments but are responsible for overseeing staff and operations during the shift. Resource nurses assist with breaks and attend deliveries. The unit has certified surgical technologists and nursing assistants scheduled per shift. OB hospitalists and pediatric nurse practitioners are available 24/7. Anesthesia services are available around the clock with respiratory therapy support when needed.

Weekend and holiday requirements are based on unit needs, with no minimum staffing obligations for traveling nurses. No on-call or standby requirements are expected. Traveling nurses may float to various facilities within a close geographical area based on patient care needs.
