blood glucose management; wound care; tube feedings, blood administration and mobility management. Patients on this unit are hemodynamically stable requiring vital

admit stable mechanically ventilated patients and provide remote telemetry monitoring. Scope of service descriptions often specify services not provided. Your unit
likely has a scope of service delineated in policy. This opening discussion will likely encompass one-two paragraphs]
