God, I feel sick.
Has anyone ever encountered a multi-shift problem (multi-day, even) discovered at the end of your own shift? I followed hospital policy on the chart checks, so there was no way I could have found the problem without going back days.
I still feel sick to my stomach because I was the one who was responsible for these patients immediately before the issues were discovered.
It was a care coordination problem, not a med problem or anything like that. No harm could come to the patients with the errors discovered. So, that's good. But, it really was a screwed up situation. Everyone, literally everyone, was irritated.
I'm new, and I feel incredibly responsible, although I'm trying to move on. Words of advice on how to prevent it in the future or to be able to shake it off?
