Our MIU requires a finely tuned infrastructure to ensure patients receive the investigations they require at the earliest possible opportunity.
Many of these technical roles are undertaken by our supporting workforce, including:
- ECG recording
- Recording Vital Signs, National Early Warning Scores and neurological observations
- Urinalysis
- Wound care
- Suturing/plastering
In addition key infrastructural functions such as:
- Completing checklists
- Checking equipment and replacing vital stock
- Undertaking fundamentals of care for all service users
- Supporting staff play a major role in the provision of expert care and quality initiatives within the MIU
- All actions will be documented within the patient notes or department documents
