Most of my days are fairly close to the day you describe. I did have a really great day the last time I worked. I went home feeling great. But back to the problem at hand. I Have found in my years of experience that staffing is usually done as a number , not a concern about the acuity of the pts. I often have the feeling that today may be the day I finally lose it and walk off the job. I understand that I would lose my license, but can only take so much. The answer to this question, I only wish I knew. Yes, you can look for another job, but usually things are pretty much the same wherever you go. Some suggest home care. I was in that situation and let me tell you, that call is not all that is cracked up to be.
