AbstractCritical care management and staffing levels are under constant review to ensure efficient staff utilisation and to apply structural efficiency principles. The staffing of our general intensive care unit was reviewed and reorganised creating what we believed to be an unsafe environment. As a group of Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNS) and critical care Registered Nurses (RN) we investigated the after hours management of the unit using a retrospective study and a current practice survey which we submitted to our administration. The data collected provided us with a strong case against reclassification of the Team Leader position and illustrates the need for clinicians to look objectively into current issues to support all discussions and concerns.
