Is your ED organized?

I've worked in 2 EDs, the new one is more organized than the last. However, it is also a smaller ED with much lower volumes. How organized is your ED? Have working conditions gotten better or worse over the past couple years?

Organized how? Supplies? People? Workloads? Scheduling?

Efficiency, flow of patients, supplies, workloads, you name it.

Both the EDs I've worked at have been a little disorganized, the first one way more and unsafe which is one of the reasons I left. The second one gets backed up with when providers or short or slow to dispo. Our level of supplies is adequate, but we are supposed to stock our own rooms and because of the imbalance of acuity and workload between nurses this can not always be done efficiently. Sometimes our techs go in the clean utility or another hiding spot to make phone calls while instead, they could be stocking our rooms. That makes our ED more disorganized and not always the best place to work.
