by Sassy5d Feb 7I thought a good topic for today would be changes in your practice due to things that have happened.
I'll start with my most recent work experience.
I don't care anymore what the pt says, even if they tell me they are currently on their period (unless there's documentation of hysterectomy) every female that comes in is getting a pregnancy test done prior to X-ray.
While it wasn't directly related to me, I did triage on pt and hcg wasn't done prior to X-ray.. Even X-ray people question Pts and they may not be honest.
Print and share with friends and family.

Feb 7 by NurseOnAMotorcycleAbout 4 years ago I put the name of the wrong hospital on a resume. Embarrassing! (Didn't get a call back either, wonder why?)

Feb 7 by crazy&cuteRN-Pushed reglan too fast. Pt. had reaction. For now on, I'm pushing ALL IV meds slow, unless I'm in a Code or something. -
- Feb 20 by RNFionaI RECEIVED IV Reglan too fast. That sucked. My hands got " stuck" . They looked like little claws. Good times.
