Sub Acute .... LTC

I currently work at a small mostly private pay facility. We do take Med A pts. more and more actually. They have special rooms set up like a hospital, I start IVs, We have two hospice suits etc. My question is this. Last night I had 12 Sub Acutes and 12 LTC and 1 Hospice pt, *she passed away last night btw* who was on a CAD pump, plus 20mg of morphine every hour, 12mg of ativan every hour( the cancer spread to her brain and was having constant seizures for almost two days) her doctor actually came in and pushed Valium and then vistaril ( i thought that was odd) , Tigan every six hours IM, so every ten minutes I was in the Hopice room taking care of a young lady 55 how had breast ca that mets all over esp in her bones. you could not touch her without her having pain. Oh she was getting Dilaudid 20mg via the CAD pump everyhour to top this off. I was overwhelmed. Does anyone out there have a mix of patients like this. Keep in mind we are only a 120 bed facility. We are building a new 400 bed facility that is under construction as we speak that will have separate units for LTC, Sub Acute, Hospice etc. For now however its seems unfair to my LTC patients that most of my time is spent with my Sub Acutes that need more attention and time. Am I crazy or is this messed up. We do have a third nurse who does all the doctors orders, charting, treatments and so on. So I dont have to be at the desk. I am on the floor at all time with the patients and families. Starting IVs and yes TPN is a new thing now as well. Great experience but alot of bedside care. Any thoughts on this I would appreciate. I really should be a RN I dont think RNs always realize that LPNs are capable of extensive skilled care all the time. Sorry just frustratrated and apparently cant spell well tonight.
