I’ve been seeing a lot of posts that say nurses who don’t participate in that much patient care are lazy, etc. But i don’t think people realize how much time patient care takes a nurse away from their nursing tasks. Anytime I’ve ever seen a nurse on top of their charting, assessments, meds, orders, admissions and discharges it’s because they delegate a lot. And whenever I’ve seen a nurse heavily involved in patient care they take short cuts with their assessments and charting. Sometimes i feel like you can’t win because if you’re involved heavily in patient care you get scolded for your nursing tasks not being done but if you don’t participate in patient care you also get scolded by management and the CNA’s turn against you. What are your thoughts?   submitted by   /u/Ill-Emergency-5767 [link]   [comments]
