Does anyone else wonder why the RN has to double check other people's work? The MD puts in discharge instructions, yet I have to analyze every section and write back what they did wrong???? Isn't that...THEIR JOB???? Can't they check it themselves or have another MD look? why do I have to double check them? Another case is with respiratory therapists. At my work we have to double check they are placing the patient on a different mask when ordered...isn't that THEIR job???? I get that the patient is the center of everything, but thats the MDs and RT's patient too. I just don't get why it seems I have to do everyone's job and if I don't it's my fault???????
