   enigmatism replied to sling4's topic in Psychiatric

   I work in Minnesota in an acute psych inpatient unit, and from what I have heard from nurses in other states, we are pretty spoiled here. Most of the time only have 3 patients (or 1 if the patient is acute enough to require 1:1 or 2:1 nursing care). ...
