Because here in Saudi Arabia, the nurses are the ones responsible for suctioning. And I find it bothersome when the nurses are busy with other patients and my patient needs suctioning right away. If you have time, i will be thankful if you can record it in a video camera and send it to me.
For you, which is best, suctioning be done by the physio to his patient or let the nurses do it. Does suctioning really need a skilled hand of a nurse or we can do it by ourselves, too? And will doing it makes our profession have some "role overlap" between us and nurses?
