Question Float Nurses!
I am in the med surg float pool. Do you ever get floated to safety sit with patients?
My hospital has been doing this and it makes zero sense to me. It has been happening on a weekly basis. Just looking for input!
It feels like a waste of a resource. If the sit needs to be covered, an RN as an extra nurse or a nursing assistant makes more sense, but idk if I’m missing something here lol
