  1. Who's medication error was it?

    Where to start? You and I know that they can't get high from INH, but other inmates don't know that. I have seen them sell antibiotics, Theophylline, HTN meds, etc for sex, commissary, and food. Maybe someone wants to collect pills to commit suic...
  2. Medication Passes and Group Homes

    If you told me to sit on a rock, I would assume you were crazy. I have heard of nurses putting rice in CNA shoes, and one nurse even forced CNAs to wear wet (new) depends. My opinion- nurses are pushing envelopes with this type of sensitivity train...
  3. Its sad how some non-medical people can be so Ignorant !

    Post-op hernia repair 74 y/o male admitted from outpatient for 23 h obs: wasn't recovering too quickly-sure didn't want to wake up. Family furious- wanted to file a grievance as he had not received his rhythmol WHILE IN POST OP! Then they became ve...
  4. Anyone Familiar with Extended Care Hospitals?

    Never heard of nurses watching cameras. Wouldn't they be more helpful on the floor? Seriously, you are walking into some rough @#$%. Extended care can be very tough. Why do you think they are training you on night shift? Team nursing- you and an L...
  5. got shouted at yesterday night

    I would tell on him. He not the boss. Seriously though, it's a mind game- he thinks he is in control- forgetting that his needs are now being met by the nursing staff. Once he is subtlety reminded that you are his link to food and medication- it wi...
  6. You imagine him have been a normal person prior to the child. You really are nice (good good thing.) I imagined him to have been a sleazy, slimy, lazy, abusive, pre/post convicted, selfish substance abuser. My impression comes from working the pri...
  7. I believe that you are a very caring person, who is extremely naive and must never work with inmates. I have worked in homes that live almost completely off that "measly" check, and will lie, cheat, and manipulate to get more and avoid working. That...
  8. If I need a bathroom break, I take one. The "me time" I speak of is not for the bathroom. It is that down time for 30 minutes to just get away. Per the post I was referring to : "In nursing school we were told if we do not take care of ourselves w...
  9. In reply to post 146: I am not attempting to be a martyr. This issue is not a clinical issue, and cannot be solved by looking it up in a text book, or bringing up what you were taught in school. This is an opinion issue. The law states that I get p...
  10. Maybe you could talk anonymously to the local Police Narcotics Unit?
  11. The end of C-diff testing??

    Re: the OP. Perhaps the humorless Dr. was attempting to joke? No Physician is going to voluntarily breach basic standard of care. Can you imagine how much a memo directing this negligence would be worth to a med-mal attorney? Just doesn't sound real...
  12. Through agency, I have worked at places that required their own staff to do this. I just don't get it. I go to work to make money, and consider putting food in my children's mouths a great responsibility. I work very hard, am a good employee, do my...
  13. 1. A contraption that would safely stabilize those rolling veins. 2. A way to show patients on admission what the pain ratings are all about. "Now, we'll turn the machine up, and give you an idea of what a pain rating of 10 is REALLY about"!! 3. ...
  14. Guy sounds like he knows the inside of a jail cell quite well. People like this could care less about his grieving process- he's probably happy to be getting a check and having very little responsibility. I have to disagree with Verandoug- who obvio...
  15. Please Aloevera, stop the perpetuating!!! I'm hungry. I am now suspicious that you may have perpetuated other problems-you are protesting too much!! Did you ever know Jimmy Hoffa? Have you ever traveled to Mt. St. Helens? Were you on the grassy kno...
