    Hey, NICU people!

    Monday, October 6, 2008, 10:06 AM EST [General]

    I am just curious...if there are any NICU nurses or respiratory therapists out there...

    How many ventilator/oscillator patients do you usually manage in a shift?

    Is there an incentive (pay) for working in NICU at your facility?

    Are there ample staff for your unit?

    What do you feel are safe patient/nurse/therapist ratios?

    I'd like to hear how things go in areas I have not worked in.  I have worked in about 15-20 NICU's in my career, but you know how things change.1

    I know we have them here. Whether they are active enough to respond to a post like this remains to be seen. Hope you get your questions answered.
