Float Assignments Sample Clauses

Float Assignments. In making float assignments to other floors, in the absence of volunteers, the Hospital will consider the seniority of the employees in the needed classification who are then on duty on the shift and floor from which the float will be assigned, except that seniority need not be considered if in the opinion of the supervisor the assigned employees have greater skills, training or ability for the float assignment unless the department has a rotation plan already in place. When a CNA accepts a floating assignment, they shall be provided with the appropriate orientation and training to the unit and position they are floating to. Employees who are floated during their shift between the Hospice House and the Hospital will be compensated mileage per IRS regulations.

Float Assignments. Nurses shall be floated only to work environments for which they have been oriented. For purposes of this section, “oriented” means that the nurse has received basic information needed to work on the unit, such as unit layout, location of supplies, and essential work protocols. A nurse may be oriented on a unit during the same shift that he or she is assigned to work, as long as such orientation begins before the nurse assumes any patient care duties. Each unit will develop its own written float guidelines with staff nurse input. Such guidelines will be available for viewing on each unit. Such guidelines will include sufficient information to orient the nurse on the unit.

Float Assignments. Nurses shall receive float assignments commensurate with their skills, competencies and the patient populations to which they have been oriented. Among nurses on a unit who are competent to perform a float assignment, volunteers shall be first, followed by agency, traveler and temporary nurses, then float pool nurses, and then by an equitable system of rotation among the remaining nurses on the unit. All nurses shall have the ability to view the floating track data for their unit. The system of rotation shall be in accordance with float guidelines established between the unit manager(s) and a majority of the nurses on the nursing unit. These float guidelines shall be written and available for review on each nursing unit. At a minimum, nurses assigned to float will receive or will have previously received basic information needed to work on the unit, including unit layout, location of supplies, and essential unit protocols prior to receiving a patient assignment. If a nurse at any time during the float assignment process determines in his or her professional judgment that the nurse does not have the skills or experience required for the assignment, the nurse’s judgment will be respected. In that situation, another nurse who has received sufficient orientation may be floated, or the assignment shall be modified. A Charge Nurse may be required to float when not assigned to perform the duties of the Charge Nurse for that shift. A bargaining unit nurse who is assigned primary preceptor duties for that shift shall not be subject to the float rotation for that shift. The Medical Center shall make best efforts to minimize floating between the RiverBend and University District campuses after the start of their shift and will seek volunteers prior to assigning such floating. Nurses shall not be required, but may volunteer, to float for a partial shift at each campus (RiverBend or University District). Any nurse required to float to a different campus, outside of their home unit, must have received prior orientation to the campus, to the unit(s) layout, procedures, meal and rest period plans and its patient population.
