Hello everyone, I'm a relatively new RPN on a surgical unit, usually caring for four patients. I'm trying to improve my time management because I often end up charting past the end of my shift. I'm curious: do you initially assess ALL your patients (vitals, general assessment, etc.) before starting your medication pass? Or do you work through one patient at a time by doing their vitals, comprehensive head-to-toe, administering medications, and then moving on to the next? What works best for you, particularly on an 8-hour med-surg/surgical shift? Thank you!!   submitted by   /u/Ok_Ad_7196 [link]   [comments]
