• Gynecologic patients recovering from surgical procedures

Nurses partner closely with skilled Perinatal Technicians to deliver safe, individualized care throughout each patient's stay.

• Provide compassionate, patient-centered support to postpartum mothers and newborns under the direction of licensed nursing staff

• Assist with patient care following vaginal deliveries, cesarean sections, gynecologic surgeries, and antepartum admissions
• Support families with basic newborn care, maternal comfort measures, safe sleep practices, and unit routines
• Assist nurses and providers with procedures, patient transport, and care coordination as needed
• Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, including nurses, OB/GYNs, neonatologists, lactation consultants, and support staff
• Facilitate smooth transitions from Labor & Delivery to postpartum care and assist with coordination with Nursery/NICU teams
• Accurately document assigned patient care activities in the electronic health record (EHR)
