A SOC (Start of Care) RN often encounters challenges such as ensuring smooth communication among physicians, therapists, and home health aides to develop a comprehensive care plan. Balancing the needs and expectations of patients, families, and team members while managing documentation and regulatory requirements can also be demanding.
