I am not a nurse. What procedures must be done in the first hour? Is
there research to demonstrate that they must be done in the first
hour (or at all for that matter). What would happen if one were to
wait a couple of hours or a day to do some of these procedures? Is
there a way to begin such a conversation in individual hospitals? If
the priority is to give the new family time to get to know one
another, then the questions one asks about procedures and how the
first hour or so should be spent changes. Can you get protocols from
other hospitals? When we work in a place (or are raised in a family)
we often assume that the way we do things is the normal or right or
only way to do them. Then we discover that there are many right ways
to do things, and some wrong ways too and we can evaluate whether our
way is the best way, or whether we should be trying something else.
