What is an OB RN?

OB RNs, or Obstetric Registered Nurses, are specialized nurses who care for women during pregnancy, labor, childbirth, and postpartum recovery. They play a critical role in monitoring the health of both mother and baby, assisting during labor and deliveries, providing education on childbirth and newborn care, and supporting families through the birthing process. OB RNs often work in maternity wards, labor and delivery units, and clinics, collaborating closely with obstetricians and other healthcare professionals to ensure the best possible outcomes for their patients.
