When I first started at this Hospice, all the rns would rotate weekends(fri pm-Mon am). We would be "2nd call" because we had a weekend call-RN. During the week the rn's would be on call "once a week" if it wasn't their weekend. Now, we have recently changed on-call to 2 RN positions. Each will be on-call for 7 days, then off for 7days. (ie: 5pm- 8am Mon-Fri, 8am-8am Sat&Sun, then off until the next Mon 5pm. ) We have a 2nd back-up RN on the weekend, if needed. We are going to hire a LPN to see scheduled visits on the weekends as well. It's working progress, but so far is working out well.
