Staffing in ASC

I manage an outpatient GI Center in Arizona. We operate two rooms at a time. I am interested to know how other centers staff their facility. How many nurses are in the Recovery room? Do you use a scope tech or does the procedure room tech clean their own scope? Do you have an LPN or RN admit patients and start their IV's? How many front office staff do you have checking in patients? Do you perform your own insurance verifications?

    We run two rooms a day 10 hour days 18 cases per room each day.

    Two Nurses in recovery room 1 RN at least other is PCA, Ma, or LPN

    Two admit nurses either RN or LPN

    One RN in each room and one either LPN,MA or Surgical Assistant, PCA

    One Scope washer

    Scope washer takes down the dirty scope and the assist person washes down every thing between cases and sets up for next case while the RN takes patient out to recovery room and gives report.

    Admit person brings next pt in to room and hooks them up.

    Works well if we are short a person then the assist person usally floats from room to room most colons are pretty easy with one RN in the room unless Snaring when we do uppers we usually need two in the room to help.

    Two secretaries usually one to break down charts and set up followup apointments .

    One to check patients in.
