healthcare professionals to ensure the safety, comfort, and
well-being of both the mother and the newborn during the perinatal

any signs of complications like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes,
or fetal growth concerns. Provide education to expectant mothers on
prenatal care, nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle modifications to

Administer pain management options such as epidurals, IV

healthcare team. Assist in delivery by providing support during

environment, preparing equipment, and assisting the healthcare
provider. Assist with procedures related to delivery, such as
episiotomy, fetal monitoring, or emergency interventions as
required. Fetal Monitoring and Assessment : Continuously monitor
fetal heart rate and contractions during labor using electronic
fetal monitoring equipment. Assess the fetal well-being, identify
signs of fetal distress, and report abnormal findings to the
obstetrician or midwife. Perform routine assessments to ensure
healthy fetal development, and intervene in the case of
complications, such as fetal distress, umbilical cord prolapse, or
meconium staining. Postpartum Care : Provide immediate postpartum
care for mothers and newborns, including monitoring vital signs,
uterine contraction, and bleeding. Assess and manage potential
postpartum complications such as hemorrhage, infection, or blood
pressure issues. Assist with breastfeeding education and support
for new mothers, providing guidance on latch techniques and proper
breast care. Offer emotional and psychological support to mothers
during the postpartum period, addressing issues such as baby blues,
postpartum depression, or recovery from a cesarean section. Patient
Education and Counseling : Educate patients and their families
about pregnancy, childbirth, and newborn care, including topics
like breastfeeding, infant care basics, and family planning.
Provide information on birth control options, including how to
prevent and manage pregnancy-related complications. Teach mothers
about the importance of follow-up care and warning signs of
complications during the postpartum period. Collaboration with the
Healthcare Team : Work collaboratively with obstetricians,
midwives, pediatricians, and other members of the healthcare team
to provide comprehensive care for patients. Participate in
interdisciplinary rounds and care planning to ensure that both
maternal and newborn care needs are addressed. Communicate
effectively with team members about any changes in patient status
or concerns that require attention. Infection Control and Safety :
Follow strict infection control procedures, especially during
labor, delivery, and post-delivery care, to prevent infections such
as postpartum uterine infections or neonatal sepsis. Ensure the
safe administration of medications and treatments, adhering to
protocols for administering pain relief or anesthesia during labor.
Monitor for signs of complications such as hemorrhage, infections,
or thromboembolic events (e.g., deep vein thrombosis) and intervene
appropriately. Documentation and Record-Keeping : Maintain accurate
and thorough documentation of patient assessments, labor progress,
medications administered, complications, and patient education.
Update electronic health records (EHR) and other documentation
