geographic/unit-based CDI model
For those of you using a unit-based model, how exactly are you doing this while accommodating varying schedules/PTO/Sick days? If you have CDI's assigned to specific units, what happens if they call out sick or are out for a single day? Does their load get split amongst remaining CDI's, what about re-reviews? Do you wait for them to get back or does someone do the re-reviews for them too?
Also if you have weekend coverage with a lower number of staff, do they only perform new reviews or do they do their regular review and re-reviews?
