Psych nurses are overwhelmed by violent patient behavior, excessive paperwork, admission/discharge churn, and inadequate staffing ratios, leading to long hours and no breaks.
Existing EHR and paperwork systems fail to streamline documentation for restraints, seclusions, and admissions/discharges; staffing ratios and lack of blanket consent forms cause bottlenecks and overtime.
