Labor and Delivery Nurse Education and Skills
In order to become a labor and delivery nurse, you need to earn a degree from an approved nursing school. You can choose either an associate degree in nursing (ADN) or a bachelor’s of science in nursing (BSN). Keep in mind that for some labor and delivery RN jobs, candidates with BSNs may be preferred.
Once you’ve completed your labor and delivery nurse schooling, you have to pass the NCLEX-RN exam before you can practice. Then you’ll likely need at least a year of clinical work experience. Working in related specialty areas like pediatrics can put you at an advantage in your job search.
Labor and Delivery Nurse Resume and Cover Letter
Before you apply to a labor and delivery nurse job, take time to refine your L&D resume. Carefully read through the requirements in the job posting, and tweak your resume so that it reflects the employer’s language. For instance, if the description mentions that applicants must exhibit “clinical expertise in antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care,” use that phrase in your resume. Then use your cover letter to explain how you provide exemplary care both in and out of the LDRP room.
