I decided to travel again in January. I’m not sure if the facility I chose had a good system down or what, but, even though I wasn’t told I was gonna work COVID, that’s where I ended up. That’s fine. It wasn’t the start or climax of the pandemic and I honestly had no complaints. I worked COVID patients and COVID patients only. That’s where I was assigned and the need was there.
I am on my second assignment and of course this has started again. This particular facility was a hot spot before and of course is now. What I don’t understand is putting COVID patients on the same floors as non COVID patients. I don’t know why, but this feels much more stressful. I thought this large facility, which is the only for this hotspot would do differently.
I don’t mind floating between COVID and non COVID floors, but to be taking care of the different sets of patients, many of the non COVID being elderly or immunocompromised.
