Labor and Delivery nurses influence the birth experience in powerful ways, from the words they choose at the bedside to the advocacy they provide during some of the most meaningful and vulnerable moments in a patient’s life. In this episode, Jen Hamilton, RN, joins us to talk about nursing, patient advocacy, education, and the importance of helping patients feel informed, respected and supported.

Known for connecting with broad audiences through social media and storytelling, Jen brings a fresh and relatable perspective on how nurses can bridge the gap between clinical care and public understanding. This conversation explores the impact of communication, trust, humor, autonomy, and compassion in maternity care, and reminds listeners why the nurse’s voice matters both at the bedside and beyond.

Guest: Savannah June, RN

Documentation is more than a task completed by the end of a shift. It is the clinical record of what happened, what was assessed, what actions were taken, how the patients responded and how the team communicated. Savannah joins us for a practical discussion about documentation, legal risk, audit trails, and the importance of creating a clear and accurate record of care.

Listeners will hear how thoughtful documentation can support patient safety, continuity of care, interdisciplinary communication, and professional accountability. Savannah shares strategies nurses can use to strengthen documentation habits in real time, avoid common pitfalls, and better understand how electronic health record audit trails may be reviewed when questions arise after care has been provided.
