   Thank you so much! I hadn't thought about the PTO so that actually helps a lot.

   A little backstory: I spent 8 months in a clinic float pool that quickly got changed to a covid testing team. I basically tested and triaged covid patients for the entirety of this assignment. I made connections and ended up being offered a superviso...

   Help, please :)

   Sbhayes09 posted a topic in General Nursing

   So, I have been tasked with altering the work flow for some of our "high maintenance" teams at our clinic. The providers regularly complain about the amount of time they have with a patient after rooming is complete, getting messages late in the day,...

   I'm considering hospice, help!

   Sbhayes09 posted a topic in Hospice

   So I'm currently staffing a covid testing site and what was supposed to be a temporary assignment has become much more long term. I'm exploring my options for a bigger challenge. I like to be able to make my own schedule and have quite a few friends ...

   Oh good, a new thing to fear ???

   Is this a safety concern?

   Sbhayes09 replied to Sbhayes09's topic in COVID

   I can see both sides of the argument. I think if a patient wanted to request this information through the formal channels so that there is a paper trail and people would know that the patient was requesting said information, it would be better. It's ...

   Thanks so much! I wasn't sure if this was common practice or if I was just being paranoid but it really bothered me that I could see her full name and picture.

   Is this a safety concern?

   Sbhayes09 posted a topic in COVID

   I recently had to be tested for covid at my own testing site due to some nausea I had while at work. One of my coworkers tested me and when I got home, I looked at my online chart just to see what it looks like to our patients (not in the hospital sy...

    I'm thinking about going back on meds....

    Sbhayes09 replied to Sbhayes09's topic in Stress 101

    I'm feeling those same pressures. I'm not in the same environment but working when you're exhausted and running on fumes is super difficult. I'm glad you were able to change to float for the COVID unit, we all have to learn our limits with this marat...

    Sbhayes09 replied to Sbhayes09's topic in Stress 101

    Absolutely, I'm so sorry you're having the same feelings I am. It's a terrible place to be right now. I've called the employee mental health line one time in May when I realized that the "temporary" wasn't going to be so temporary and vented on my wa...

    Sbhayes09 replied to Sbhayes09's topic in Stress 101

    Thank you! I haven't had to be on meds in about 8 years but I'm also a new grad thrust into a pandemic on day one. It's very reassuring to know that I'm not the only one.

    Sbhayes09 replied to Sbhayes09's topic in Stress 101

    Thank you so much. I guess everyone is feeling the pressure right now. I know there are a ton of nurses that have it way worse than I do but the struggle is real no matter where you're assigned. I think I'll at least make a video visit to speak with ...

    Sbhayes09 posted a topic in Stress 101

    So, I've been working at a "temporary" covid testing site since mid March. I'm part of the ambulatory float pool (basically a fill-in nurse for the outpatient clinics) and when covid hit, all the clinics shut down in my area. This made our group the...

    My Ultimate Warning based on personal Experience with COVID+ patients and co-workers.

    Sbhayes09 replied to theoneandonly's topic in COVID

    I've been working in a screening clinic and testing patients daily. On the ambulatory side of this coin, none of my co-workers or myself have contracted the virus. We also see the not so sick versions of patients. That being said we have sent a few t...
