We have set times for the day in our schedule. That way in theory everybody is pretty well organized, even if that isn’t actually how it happens. I’ve never been anywhere that was just anytime, but can see within reason some other areas can do that. What about you, how does your lunch or break time work out?

That’s good that it is organized
A 30-minute break anytime during the middle two-hour window of your shift -- unless too many have already walked away. If that happens, delay dinner until a couple of people return.
It depends on the unit when I went everywhere in my hospital. Now, I pretty much have to take it when someone is ready and willing to watch my patient. If I'm in the ED many days I just get my food, sit there and eat and watch my patient at the same time
