Manage episode 418051475 series 3363756
In this episode of Happy Hour with Bundle Birth Nurses, Justine and Sarah Lavonne are joined by guest Jen Atkisson who is the industry expert on Pitocin administration, safety and legal issues, and they discuss the use of Pitocin in labor and delivery. We know that Pitocin use has been normalized in our industry, but there are the risks and benefits of the medication. As professionals, we need better education and understanding among healthcare providers for how to practice safely and avoid lawsuits. They emphasize the importance of treating Pitocin as a medication and using it only when necessary, rather than as a routine intervention. They also encourage nurses to advocate for their patients and to continue learning and growing in their practice. Overall, what would it take to see a decrease in the use of Pitocin and a greater focus on physiologic birth? Thanks for listening and subscribing!
