All these nurses saying “nah it’s focused assessment only” are just being ***lazy***. Focused assessments are good for ED only. Otherwise, yes, check your patients head to toe. 23 yr RN

I'm a RN and I've had patients tell me I'm the first to do a head to toe and admitted for several days already. Like what?!?! Blows my mind.

For a young heathy adult I wouldn’t do a head to toe. I would focus on leg and leg related things: swelling, pulse, strength, pain, redness.

Maybe do your own head to toe assessment if you’re that concerned 🤣

You’re nurse is probly worried that if she doesn’t get 3126’s wife her Shasta and string cheese fast enough she will be written up and fired. Is the real problem the nurses?

A lot of assessments can be done with just interacting and the pt may not even notice. airway, breathing, and circulation can be assessed instantly. It may depend on the unit if head to toe or focused

They’re definitely charting a full body assessment and are committing fraud.

During hospital stays a basic head to toe should be done once/shift. Makes you wonder what the charting says🧐

Omg these comments are scary. They should be bare minimum listening to you and checking your pedal pulses. vascular assessments are very serious with a surgery like that.

Not defending but sometimes unfortunately there isn’t time to keep up with the assessments and just trying to keep thier head above water treating thier Patients

This is because new nurses taught newer nurses. And obviously are now defending bad behaviors which leads to poor patient outcomes and death.

I work ICU we do full head to toes because we only have two patients. I have been floated to the floors and tbh it is absolute HELL (5-8 pts).. ER it is literally IMPOSSIBLE. Try not to judge !

Um….as an RT, someone needs to listen to you! If you’re in the bed, you’re sedentary, fluid collects all over. In your lungs, first! I’d be throwing a fit!

If you are there several days, the wound nurse will come and do a head to toe skin assessment. Shift nurses pretty much pass meds and do computer charting. Techs do vitals.
