Hey there Sue!

It's great to hear from you! Glad you have a job! I was recently transferred from MDS to unit manager. It's a big change but, you know, I'm feeling more like a nurse now and I have a decent staff. :wink2:

So, how is your Dad doing? Better I hope! :nurse:

Hey there Sue!

So, how is your Dad doing? Better I hope! :nurse:

Thanks for asking. He's doing better than my mom. She's guilty, drunk and maudlin a lot of the time. He's being well cared for.

:)

And congratulations on your move!

Hey Sue,

Sounds like a great gig. At nights there are no mgmt people around to issue new projects, no dietician sitting at your nurses station taking up space. You can just do your thing. You should try to schedule some of the wound care on night shift so you can do some tx. BTW, I wear white too. The easier to bleach, my dear. I do Baylor weekends plus 2 day shifts (6a-6p wknds, 6a-2p tue and wed.) By the end of a long shift I have all sorts of bodily fluids on me. LOL

Good luck and no callouts for your staff!!!

Congrats on your new job. But, PLEASE don't schedule treatments at night just so you can do them. People need to sleep.

Maureen, I always did wear white, too. My residents loved it - instant recognition, no matter how far into dementia they were.
