I thought you could only recap during the lab sims??

That's what we are talking about...recapping during the lab sims.

So status of recapping when not in a sim lab is not to.

I am not sure what type of injections we would be assigned besides insulin, Lovenox, Heparin and something IM.... but I would say in a PCS situation where you are right in front of the patient recapping is not good practice, I know where I work we have a no recap policy--we don't EVER mix insulin, against policy, too much room for error... so I am assuming at a hospital like UUH it might be similar.. We have insulin pens. So truly I am not sure and I am sure if you ask EC you will get four different answers LOL!!! The girl that posted that said she knew it was wrong the minute she did it....

I was always taught not to so i feel wrong even doing it in the lab sim!
