Just curious, do they exist? One of my biggest pet peeves if not done and something that I really tried to stay on top of was turning patients. I have days where I think if I did volunteering in a hospital, I would just volunteer to be the second person (the other person being the tech/nursing assistant) to go and turn patients that needed it. I don't know if that is allowed or not (volunteer wise, I mean).
All these people who want to shadow nurses and volunteer in a hospital, could they do this? Is it considered something only within a scope of practice?
It's just a peeve of mine. I like my patients turned. Definitely decreases pressure ulcers.
