In this episode of Happy Hour with Bundle Birth Nurses, Sarah Lavonne meets with certified nurse midwife and expert witness Pam Hetrick to unpack the legal realities every labor and delivery nurse should understand. Together, they explore how communication, informed consent, and thoughtful documentation are some of the strongest tools nurses have to protect both their patients and their practice. Pam shares practical guidance on navigating patient declinations, activating the chain of command, and handling obstetric emergencies. They also discuss why bedside debriefs after difficult births are essential.This reassuring conversation will help you approach challenging situations with greater confidence and advocate more effectively for your patients, and practice with less fear and more freedom.
