Specialty
Labor and delivery nurse jobs, and hiring Labor and delivery nurses
Labor and delivery is usually a hospital women’s service, sometimes a birth center. Volume and level of care vary more than the specialty label suggests. Say the city first, then the unit.
Women’s health is grouped with pediatrics and surgical services as reporting the lowest turnover in the 2026 executive summary. That is not a published vacancy rate for labor and delivery alone.
Across hospitals in the 2026 NSI National Health Care Retention & RN Staffing Report, staff RN turnover was 17.6% and the vacancy rate was 8.6%. Those are national hospital figures from 527 acute care hospitals in 40 states, covering calendar year 2025. They are not a vacancy rate for Labor and delivery in a particular city. Read the report.
Where to look
The first city pages are the metros we are building supply for. Every state has its own licensure and hiring page.
Does this page list Labor and delivery job openings?
No. JobPosting data is reserved for roles a partner actually publishes. This version has none.
Can a hospital see Labor and delivery nurses who want its city?
Yes, as an anonymous count and an anonymous summary, and only if the nurse opted in. There is no fit score on that screen. Names wait for the nurse’s approval.
