very very over whelmed!

I also work in a hospital rehab unit, 12 beds. I like rehab, but with bad staffing it has been hell. We have one CNA no matter what. Even if we have 5 patients that are 1 assist, or 10 patients with half being 2 assist, it doesnt matter and our unit is suffering with high turnover and CNAs being overwhelmed and stressed, and that in turn doesn't help the RNs either. I think rehab is great, the success stories are what keep me going, but staffing needs to change. They need to base it on acuity, especially since we are the only unit that gets people up and dressed and ready to go to the dining room or therapy. I feel for you.
