The Stewardship Ward Round

Stewardship is not a pharmacy memo — it is six bedside levers, and most of them are nursing actions. Work three stations: assign the precaution tier and the hand hygiene for ten organisms, run the 48- to 72-hour antibiotic time-out on real orders and decide narrow, convert, stop or never start, then settle the delegation board. Every answer tells you the deciding rule and what you do next.
