Yes. We have no restrictions on tub use with ROM. We have telemetry, so even women who require continuous monitoring use the tubs (we have tubs in every LDR). The only problem with the telemetry is that the Jacuzzi jets interfere with the transmission of the signals, so the continuous monitoring women don't get to use the jets.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
