What does it mean to work in the float pool at a hospital?
What does it mean to work in the float pool at a hospital? For those unfamiliar with that term, it means that I am a nurse that doesn’t work on one dedicated unit. Instead, each shift I work on a different unit in need of a nurse that day. One day I may be working on a surgical unit, and the next I may be in the emergency department or intensive care unit (ICU).
