Whats Your Neuro/Trauma Unit Like?

My unit is a 20 bed Level 1 Neuro/Trauma unit. We use invasive monitoring such as swans, a-lines, bolts, caminos, continuous bladder pressures, CVP's etc. Our neuro patients seem to come in waves, summer is trauma season so we have more currently. We have our fair share of thoracic patients as well. Some of the more interesting things I have done is open bellys at the bedside, I have witnessed cardiac massage, ran two level one infusers at once(put about 30 units of blood and 30 liters of fluid), and have been in many codes. Some procedures are done at the bedside, such as trachs and pegs. However, its not always guts and glory. We have the patients that should have transfered days ago... and have people admitted that don't need the SICU, and get the medical overflow occasionally also. Our penetrating injury population is low, about 5%, because we are a suburban hospital.

Thats mine, so whats your unit like?
