PLEASE CAN U HELP
I REALLY DO NOT THINK IT WOULD BE SAFE TO TRANSFER THIS MAN, HE IS VERY UNSTABLE
NOT GOOD FOR HIM TO BE IN ED ANY LONGER
CAN U SEE ANY WAY WE COULD MAKE ROOM FOR HIM
IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO REDUCE THE LOAD ON NURSING STAFF? ( STOP CVVHD/CANCEL ELECTIVES)
IS THERE ANY WAY WE CAN GET MORE HELP? CAN I SPEAK TO ANYONE FOR U.
WHAT DO U THINK WE SHOULD DO?
