AB Labor  and  Delivery  (L&D)  is  a  high-acuity,  fast-paced  work  environment,  frequently  with  a  large,  shifting  workforce.  In  this  setting,  it  can  be  difficult  for  personnel  to  stay  current  on  best  practices  and  updated  policies.  As  policies  are  introduced  or  changed,  there  is  variable  exposure  to  the  changes  and  uptake  of  the  novel,  desired  behaviors.  Communication  with  this  type  of  workforce  in  this  environment  can  be  difficult.  While  email  seems  an  obvious  choice  to  communicate  with  the  large  workforce,  we  know  that  high  email  volume  and  email  fatigue  prevents  it  from  being  an  effective  way  to  disseminate  essential  updates.1  In-person  communication  is  limited  in  scope  as  only  a  small  proportion  of  personnel  are  present  during  any  shift.
