RN Labor and Delivery Weekend Option

The Womens Services department at Holy Cross Hospital-Mountain Point has 10 LDRP rooms one triage room 6 OB/GYN rooms and 4 level 2 nursery beds. We deliver an average of 85 babies each month 34 weeks and above. Our diverse patient population loves coming to Mountain Point because of our walk-in tubs complimentary massages celebration meals beautiful and spacious rooms fantastic mountain views and knowing they stay in the same room from admission to discharge. We pride ourselves on excellent patient experiences that cater to their preferences in a safe comfortable environment.

All nurses work shifts as mother-baby nurses and specialize in either labor or level 2 nursery. Our nurses must be flexible as their assigned area may change from shift to shift or throughout a shift. Our labor patients are staffed one-on-one except cervical ripenings are one to two. Mother-baby assignments are staffed by three couplets to one nurse. The level two nursery is staffed by one nurse to two babies. However patient acuity may change the nurse-to-patient ratio.

Because we all work together in one department we work together well and know how to assist with patient care in the other specialty. We have a wide spectrum of experience and encourage questions and learning. Our employees can become instructors serve in the Shared Governance Council or contribute to other councils and projects. National certification is highly encouraged and supported. We want employees eager to learn personable self-driven and work well in a team environment. We also value loyalty and commitment to the overall department and hospital objectives which center around ministering to our community and one another.

Our nurses have the right resources and leadership to practice at the top of their license with an organization that is consistently raising the bar on care excellence. Our system includes several Magnet-designated facilities (with more hospitals on the Magnet journey) and provides nurses with development cross-training and options to flex and advance throughout their career journey. We offer Certification pay and a Clinical Career Ladder to help you grow and recognizeyour contributions to clinical excellence!
