"I'm experiencing alarm fatigue as a nurse...what advice do you have?" (Listener Question)

Ask Nurse Alice

Every patient is your patient when it comes to answering call lights. And while the call light system is needed to help us care for patients, it can sometimes feel like it's being overused or not used properly and disrupt us while we're in the middle of patient care... and that's frustrating. So where's the call light for the nurse when this happens?

In this episode Nurse Alice talks about how the call light system was intended to use, the different types of call light devices, and provides tips on how you may be able to reduce the number of call lights you get from your patient and on your unit.
