Medical PracticeStaffing & Scheduling4HighNurse$ implied

Nurse is doing 75% technician work (cleaning, toileting, bed changes) instead of nursing tasks, with no help from unresponsive techs, causing burnout and late medications.

No system to track staff workload, task delegation, or accountability; relies on verbal requests and charge nurse notifications.
