Hi Onc Nurses!
I'm a nursing student doing a teaching presentation on Rituxan nursing care. My clinicals are on an onc/med/surg unit where the nurse to pt ratio was 2:1 for pts receiving Rituxan for the first time but they have recently changed it to 3:1. I have been looking in the literature for anything on staffing recommendations but have come up short! Does anyone know anything about this issue that might be helpful?
Thanks!

I also work outpatient and we have 8 rooms and 4 nurses, we currently don't have "assignments" so, if everyone is on their game we get the 2:1 but yes we also could have a lot of other events going at once.
