Additional Information

During my time at NYP Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, I was assigned to be Charge Nurse at times during my shift, it was a very busy ED. I had at times 160 patients and was expected to keep the flow. Make sure the patients did not wait in the waiting room. And when we had admitted patients made sure they went up in a timely manor.
