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
