What is a nurse's job?
1. Measure and record vital signs. Generally, in nursing homes or rehabilitation departments, every 8 hours, registered nurses will ask the assistant nurses to re-measure and record the abnormal body temperature, heartbeat and blood pressure within a certain period of time. The internal surgery and observation room record and measure every 4 hours, and there is no nurse assistant in ICU.

2. Record the number of in and out.

3. Life care of patients.

4. Collect urine, feces and sputum samples. Many nurse assistants trained in hospitals are responsible for sampling peripheral venous blood.

Generally speaking, the departments that need a large number of assistant nurses are sanatoriums and rehabilitation centers. Each assistant nurse is responsible for 10- 12 patients, and most of them can't take care of themselves. In the internal surgery and observation room, each nurse assistant is responsible for no more than 9 patients on average.

In the internal surgery and observation room, the assistant nurses worked 12 hours like the registered nurses, and there was no shift. In nursing homes and rehabilitation departments, nurse assistants only give 8 hours, and there is no shift, which means that you have been working in the same shift since you set a shift.

If you go abroad and are not admitted to a registered nurse, of course, you can always be an assistant nurse, or you can apply to the hospital to become a medical secretary after you are familiar with computers and many inspection processes.
