Staffing and nursing time at the bedside play a role in missed nursing care. This study focused on the role of COVID-19 on staffing and nursing time at the bedside and, therefore, on missed nursing care in labor and delivery units. During a peak of the pandemic, this study of obstetrics nurses found perceptions of nursing time at the bedside and adequate staffing played a significant role in missed nursing care.
