   Glad I'm not the only one who calls pts to check on them from time to time. Everyone else I work with thinks I'm crazy.

3. Anxious discharging pts home

   Katie83. posted a topic in Urology

   Anyone else take home anxiety when a patient had issues such as sympomatic hypotension especially at the end of tx? I'm so chicken about discharging them, and I continue to think about them all night.

4. Any vascular access center nurses out there?

   Katie83. replied to Millerkane's topic in Urology

   I worked at a vascular acess center. Piece of cake. Radiologist gives meds through sheath placed in fistula. You just hand him meds, pull supplies, chart vitals, recover, and discharge.

5. Venofer

   Does anyone know why Venofer is recommended to be infused at beginning of tx? Frequently remaining Venofer is left near end of tx. We usually push it, policy says it should be pushed at beginning of tx. Thought? Thanks
