At a facility I once worked at, it was common for me to be the only nurse for 24-28 patients. I would also have 2 (3 if lucky) techs to help with rounds. But only I could do assessments, admissions, discharges, meds... it was a nightmare.

We typically have 2-3 nurses taking calls and average about 8-10 minutes including charting. But we get multiple psych calls per day, which can last over 20 minutes sometimes, depending on the severity, child's psych history, and how the parent is handling it.

I am always scanning my environment for things that could be used for self harm ie- stray paper clips, pencils left alone, etc. My mom is a retired teacher, so you can imagine how many of those are scattered around her house!
