New Grad hired by home health

Published

I was just hired today by a home health agency but Im quite confused... they only require me to go to one patients home for 8 hours and give meds, chart, progress notes etc. My question is... anybody out there work in home health like this? Only for one patient? And what do you do all day after you give meds, etc? Im a lil nervous too as this will be my first job and Im going to be alone with a patient. :eek:

Specializes in geriatrics.

: ) at least you can dedicate your time and energy to one patient. check their care plan, do stuff from care plan, do documentation, chat with them, clean stuff, watch tv with them, during extra time.
