041 Advocating for Yourself in Labor and Building a Relationship with Your Labor Nurse

This is part 2 of our series discussing relationships in the workplace. This episode is specifically about the relationship between the labor nurse and the patient in labor and delivery. This is such a unique relationship that's built within the time frame of about 12 hours usually! The nurse is trying her best to establish a rapport and prove herself trustworthy to the patient. When conflict arises, the patient should be able to rely on the nurse to be her advocate.  Liz and Shaina are nurses and birth educators in Los Angeles and Santa Monica, CA.
