Depends on the company really. Everyone is happy with their job where I'm at. We all usually put in about 4 hours a day and that's full-time salary. Only have to go into tye office for supplies or pick up paperwork otherwise the bosses do not bother you at all. We have a good system set up so most patient deaths happen pretty peacefully and thats a good death, as grim as that sounds.

How many people die alone (best guess %)


Maybe 10-15% they could be in a nursing home or assisted living and pass away overnight. If theyre at home family will usually be there, or might wake up find they passed in their sleep. Usually if they're in nursing homes you can get family there before the final moments but but always. We will be there if we get there in time, sometimes it's fast sometimes it takes a few days of shallow breathing and slowly fading.
