hi all, not sure how i surfed onto this site, however i must have been reading some older posts from acute dialysis nurses, mostly seemed like one whom were working in the hospital setting.
question? where is the best resource to find the pt. ratio in an acute setting with and eight bed ward. many times, one nurse is left alone with a tech. hours upon hours worked from all acute employees. is this a common problem in this area of work??
very frustrated with my job... i wanna puke everyday before i go in..... it's time for a change...........
