Exploring the Heart of Maternity Nursing: A Journey with Labor and Delivery and Postpartum Nurse, Pam Dymond

Nursing Student Coach

Ever wondered what it's like to work in the heart of maternity nursing? Picture yourself in the shoes of a seasoned labor and delivery nurse, Pam Dymond, who introduces us to the world of OB maternity care. From the rewarding experience of guiding new mothers to the inevitable heartbreak of non-viable pregnancies, Pam's recount of her seven-year journey in this specialized field is nothing short of insightful and inspiring.
Our conversation takes us through the realities of a typical day in labor and delivery, as well as mother baby care, emphasizing the importance of confidence and open-mindedness in this demanding field. Pam generously shares her wisdom, reminding us that nursing skills take time to hone and urging us not to shy away from asking questions. The twist? Pam initially considered a cardiac specialty before a maternity clinical sparked her interest in labor and delivery.
Wrapping up, Pam leaves us with an invaluable reminder - be open to different experiences, you never know where they might lead. Her story of a student, initially disinterested in maternity clinicals, who later emerged as an OR nurse is a testament to this. No stranger to the challenges of transitioning to labor and delivery nursing, Pam’s experiences guide us on the importance of staying open-minded, the value of asking questions, and the crucial role of a good support system. Don't miss this journey of discovery and growth with Pam Dymond!
