Question: do pacu nurses take call?
Answer: You will get all your breaks, you have to take call (for "emergent" surgery) and there will be downtime. The ratio is usually 1:2, ICU patients or unstable patients are generally 1:1. That being said, you will do fine as long as you focus on airway, airway, airway! Got to sit with a PACU nurse during my student days.
