The frequency of check-ins can vary based on several factors:
- Patient Condition: Critically ill patients or those in intensive care may require hourly check-ins, while stable patients might only need assessments every few hours. - Facility Protocols: Different healthcare facilities have varying guidelines, but a general rule is to check on each patient at least once every shift. - Specific Treatments: Patients undergoing certain treatments or medications may need more frequent evaluations to monitor for side effects or complications.
