In the Stepdown unit, the patient ratio is 1:4-5, with 28 private beds available. Common diagnoses include heavy cardiac issues, dysrhythmias, and CVAs. Charge Nurse on days has no assignments, while night charge may have patient assignments. Nurses are expected to interpret telemetry strips, although there is a monitor tech available.
