Ive mostly worked LTC, with a little med surg., I usually have about 30 residents on day shift, and all the tons of meds and Tx. that goes with it, some times Ill get floated to a 6 bed unit they call acute. What do you do when its 0900, in the middle of med pass and there is an emergency. Some one gets hurt badly from a fall, or cardiac or resp' problem or what ever.....all your attention and time is devoted to the emegency and the am meds on't get done....there is no nurse to help,its the weekend what do u do with the very late or not given meds and treatments?
