I’m finding myself frustrated with the lack of staffing ar my job. We have an extremely busy ER with 65 beds not counting overflow of patients. We have 2 scanners, yet only 1 CT tech and we have special software on our scanners for strokes that can take seasoned techs 45-60min to complete post processing. So if we get a CTA head and neck with the nurse starting IV in the room it takes up a lot of time and backs you up all day. The other day I had 3 strokes, 2 at the same time so I had to ask the team who they thought was worse. I feel this is so unfair to the patients.
Can you tell me what state you’re in, with how many ER beds, and CT techs?
