Would you do this???

We had case conference today and were informed that we (all nurses) would have to make visits (rotating) for one patient 4x's per day- 6AM, noon, 6PM and midnight for an indefinite amount of time . Does this seem like a ridiculous request or is it just me?

Our normal business hours are 8-4:30p, unless you're on call. What would you do if asked to do this?

I have health problems and take meds at night, it takes all that I have just to be on-call every 4-5 weeks.....

Waiting to hear an update on this situation.

Ridiculous. No, I would NOT agree to off-hours visits. If someone needs that much care, they need to be in a different setting such as LTC, not home health.

This is becoming a wave of the future where seriously ill clients are sent home because it is more cost effective. On top of that, they are reducing our pay as RNs to care for them.
