Coworkers Opening Patient Windows During Inclement Weather

[SilverBells]

What would you do if you had a colleague that opened patients’ room windows during inclement weather? For example , the other day it was quite cold, cloudy and rainy and someone had opened up all the windows on one unit.  A similar happening occurred during Winter when it was very snowy out.  In both instances, some of the rooms got very cold, almost to the point of being freezing.  What would you do about a colleague who does things such as this?  In our case, we don’t know who is responsible (yet) but wondering about the best approach should their identity become known

Are you saying that posting unusual posts on Allnurses.com isn't your first choice of activity during your downtime? ?

If not, this is truly mind boggling.  Forget any cleaning around the house to do, errands to run, other hobbies to participate in or friends and families to see.  Surely, posting odd threads on Allnurses.com would take priority over any of that.  ??

So was there any flatulence involved ??????

The 5-10 minutes out of the day you also use to go raid the vending machine at work?

Weren't you the person who said she was doing the work of a hundred people floating between units because you had to keep track of everything or it would all go to hell, working 18hrs/day, 8 days/week? Or have I misremembered?

Great. Good on ya. Go back to work.

Yes. I took today off, so no work today.

How are the souls supposed to escape if no one opens the windows?

Wise question.

Sweet jayzus, don’t you have anything better to do than this sort of inanity?

It makes one wonder if some members have anything better to do than read, respond to, and berate SilverBells' threads and posts.

Yet they keep coming back, like moths to a flame.

Never again, I swear. It's like trying to reason with your thirteen year old.

How are you, dear?

DD - it's like drivers slowing down on the road to look at an accident. You just can't help NOT looking!!
