MNA PACU and OR Positions Proposal
St. Luke’s is designated as a Level II Trauma Center. The hospital needs to have extended periop coverage but instead has relied on on-call. We believe that a Level II Trauma Center ought to have sufficient RN staffing 24/7 to meet the heightened needs of trauma patients. As a result, we have proposed the following:- Post and fill sufficient RN positions to staff PACU 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. Monday to Friday.
- Post and fill sufficient RN positions to staff OR 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. Monday to Friday.
