areason4stars, ASN, RN 49 Posts Specializes in Pediatric Private Duty AND Child/Adolescent Psych. Has 14 years experience. Sep 19, 2020 I can not wrap my head around being the only staff in the building. Period. I am almost speechless. We are trained to never be alone with a client. Even with the door open I still have a staff member come to the doorway when I have to enter a clients room to do a blood sugar check, 02sat spot check, ect Besides physical safety concerns what about allegations and such?
