SIGN ON BONUS AVAILABLE!
RELOCATION AVAILABLE!
Unit/Position SummaryOccasionally pregnancy presents risks that must be monitored and cared for over an extended period of hospitalization. Care for pregnant women and their families who are experiencing these complications while pregnant is done by specially trained nurses on our Antepartum unit. This is the place where patients know they are the center of the healthcare team, and long term care relationships are developed and nurtured. Our small unit of dedicated nurses work in partnership with our Maternal Fetal Medicine doctors as well with our Family Practice Residency physicians. Together we work to provide state of the art medical management and expertise in high risk assessment and care. Because of these relationships, those who have stayed on Antepartum through pregnancy often request to return after delivery for their postpartum care. Our nurses accommodate these requests as often as possible because of the vested bond they also feel toward these patients they have cared for. Families and friends are welcome and encouraged to visit and support these patients. Baby showers often occur in the spacious Family Lounge. Antepartum is the place for creativity in care provided to meet patient needs including art, massage, yoga, and relaxation therapy.
