What is the career path for a L&D nurse?

We Answered:

Hey,

It would be nice if you could just get a degree in labor and delivery nursing, but you have to become a registered nurse and get trained in everything from babies to the elderly. Once you have you degree (either and associate's degree in nursing or a bachelor's of science in nursing), and pass the NCLEX-RN (to become a registered nurse), you could apply at a hospital for a job as a labor and delivery nurse.

If you do decide to go to nursing school, it would be wise to work as a nurse extern (like a nurse's aide, but you are in school to become an RN), at the hospital you want to work at. You will have a better shot at going straight onto a labor and delivery unit. A lot of new RN's get hired onto medical-surgical nursing units, then have to work up seniority to get placed on a labor and delivery unit.

Good luck.

hi
to become one u need to be RN with BSN. u need expereince at least 2 years in ICU as an RN. u need to have gpa at least 3. the rest depends on school u want to apply to.
of course a lot of hard work and being unemplyed for around 2
years also required because its an intense full time curriculum that leaves no room for job or anything else pretty much. my boyfriend just finished his 1st year, and trust me i know. u have to be surrounded by people who trully care for u and understand what it would be like. of course upon completion, sky is only the limit.
good luck, hope i was helpful. i am in a family nurse practitioner masters program.
