Is this too much or am I crazy...what are your units like?

First off, sorry for the length and the spelling/grammar errors...its been a long night.

I work nights on a busy 33-bed telemetry floor at an inner-city nonprofit hospital. I am a new grad and have been on this floor for 1 year and 4 months and I just finished training for charge. Our administrators have been making a big push to consider our floor a CICU step-down unit (but so far without the national certification). When I began working on this floor I had 4-5 patients during nights. There has since been a high turnover of staff, many RN's are moving to CCU/ICU and I find myself some nights being the most senior person on the floor. We are in a budget crunch and now are staffed 1:6 at nights with 2 CNAs and 2 monitor techs. We are accepting more complex pts, more confused/total cares and pts with gtts we've never worked with. Ok I apologize regarding the following text if it makes little-to-no sense...I would just like your opinion on the acuity of my pts this shift. how many do you take and whats your acuity? Do you think I am crazy for thinking this is too much?

Tonight I started with 5 pts and then got an ICU transfer for a total of 6.
Pt1- chf exasc, leg ulcer, chest pain (frequently on the call light for pain meds, random tasks...one of "the needy types" as horrible as that sounds.
Pt2-my icu transfer, anemic h/h (7and 21), here with SOB/CP and CHF exas) on an insulin gtt (our protocol states chemsticks q 1 hr) and just finished her 1st of 3units RBCs when arrived on the floor. MD did not order lasix between units Paged MD, did not hear back. Pt initially, stable until 15 minutes into 2nd unit of blood, then her temp spiked, o2 sats down to 80s on 6Lo2, lungs increasingly coarse. I stopped blood called MD, and demanded lasix, benadryl and that she be transfered back to unit
Pt3- chf exasc on a dobutamine gtt going at 7.5mcg/kg/ (our unit protocol states we can't take dobu >5 mcgs but CCU/ICU full and pt "stable" so MD allowed pt on my unit)
Pt4- heparin gtt and morphine PCA, s/p fem-pop and then an emergency thrombectomy...most likely going to lose her leg...dealing with low BP/urine output and tachycardia as well as pain thru HS... poss shock? should have been sent to CCU/ICU but only 1 bed left in each reserved for codes
Pt 5 32 y/o with CP, frequent requests for dilaudid, trops (-), ct abd, lungs and angio (-)
Pt 6 another young pt with CP, turns out was gastroparesis...my only pt that was low acuity except for the frequent requests for $ from her husband spending the night

What types of gtts and what pts do you see? We used to take a limited # of gtts (amio,cardizem, dobutamine, dopamine, insulin, heparin and protonix) and now we are getting alcohol gtts, lasix gtts, isuprel, higher rates of dobutamine) and pts who require q 30 min vitals, bed alarms, turns q 2 hrs, and more and more confused people. To top this all off our staff is almost entirely new grads at nights who need a lot of assistance. Is this what its like on your floors or am I crazy for feeling overwhelmed? Thanks for the input.
