High patient ratios
First of all, I want to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the team that I worked with. My issue was with the safety of the nurse patient ratio. In the main department, you could have up to 4 patients of any acuity level, the majority at level 2 esi. When in the hold area, you could have up to 7 patients and on occasion be the only person staffed in that area. No lab, no tech, no tele monitor nothing. When in the rapid care area, it is pure chaos with a paramedic tasking, one or two nurses. One nurse does all of the documentation and one does taking that the medics can’t do. There is no accountability however as no one really knows what they are dosed to be doing.

Pros
Excellent!! Excellent!! Very honest-helpful:: the only staff that informed me the real meaning of a travel nurse:: others have lied and was leading me down the wrong path with false hope:: truly thank God for allowing this guardian angel to cross my path even tho I have never seen her:: she deserves a raise!!!
Cons
The only con is I regret not meeting her earlier:: would have save me time filling out unnecessary paper work.
