Radiation Oncology Staffing

Published

Hi everyone. As usually at my hospital we are getting the ole story of being "overstaffed" (isn't there a nursing storage???). I work in Radiation Oncology (inpt and outpt services). We have four RN's to approx 70-85 pts under treatment a day. We also do HDR procedures - were the pt stays in our department for their full treatment (prostate HDR stay the whole day). We have three MD's. Currently we are having to float one of our RN's to Outpt Chemo ( where there are 7 RNs to 40 pt/day). I am curious to know what everyone else is doing. Appreciate any info. Thanks:spin:
