About this role

Join a highly specialized women’s health team where no two days are the same and your expertise directly supports mothers and babies during critical moments of care. As an OB-GYN ED RN, you’ll provide expert assessment and treatment for patients presenting to the OB-GYN Emergency Department, while also supporting a range of scheduled obstetric and gynecologic procedures.

This role blends emergency-level responsiveness with perioperative and procedural nursing, offering a dynamic environment where clinical judgment, collaboration, and compassionate care are essential. You’ll care for patients across the full continuum—from emergent OB-GYN concerns to planned surgical and procedural interventions.

What You'll Do

  • Assess, triage, and provide direct care for patients presenting to the OB-GYN Emergency Department.
  • Care for patients undergoing scheduled C-sections, including pre-operative, intra-operative, and immediate post-anesthesia (PACU) recovery support.
  • Assist with and support procedures such as external cephalic versions, non-stress tests (NSTs), and cervical cerclage placement or removal.
  • Collaborate closely with obstetricians, anesthesiologists, surgical teams, and interdisciplinary staff to ensure safe, coordinated care.
  • Monitor maternal and fetal status and respond rapidly to changes in condition using strong clinical judgment.
  • Provide patient and family education throughout emergent and procedural care experiences.
  • Document assessments, interventions, and outcomes accurately and in real time.

Required

  • Active Registered Nurse (RN) license in Indiana or another compact licensure state.

Preferred

  • BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing).
  • Previous OB, Emergency Department, and/or Operating Room experience.
