In the profession of nurse, there is such a special assistant nurse. They are assistant nurses who have just graduated from nursing school and have not yet obtained the professional qualification certificate of nurses. Because she has not obtained the professional qualification certificate of nurses, she can only engage in clinical basic nursing, but she plays a very busy and important role in the work of various disciplines.
In the ICU, a clinical nurse and an assistant nurse are on duty. Clinical nurses are mainly responsible for the treatment of patients, and assistant nurses are responsible for the life care and basic care of patients.
Basic work:
The departments that generally need a large number of assistant nurses are nursing homes and rehabilitation departments. Each assistant nurse is responsible for 10- 12 patients, and most of them can't take care of themselves. In the internal and surgical observation room, each nurse assistant is responsible for no more than 9 patients on average. Assistant nurses in the surgical observation room of general hospitals, like registered nurses, work continuously for 12 hours, without scheduling.
