A new graduate ER nurse is struggling with time management when handling multiple simultaneous physician orders near shift change without a preceptor to help split tasks.
No existing software or workflow solution is mentioned; the nurse relies on the preceptor to split tasks, which will be unavailable after orientation, indicating a need for better prioritization and delegation support.
