Hey - fedupnurse! You don't have to track down a doctor for a lightbulb order change. Just go ahead, change it, and then when a doc is handy, you INFORM him that he ordered it changed and he's to go RIGHT NOW and initial the verbal order you took!
Also don't forget to CYA with the next shift, to make sure they're not going to trash your rep about the mess you made in changing the bulb.

Don't forget that you had to check w/ at least 3 different light bulb manufacturers to get the best price for the bulb, then present as a capital expense to the board for approval as a necessary item. Then do a QA on the bulb's performance in comparison w/ 3 other bulbs and have staff input as to the " light quotient ability" of this bulb and compare to 3 other bulbs........
Too Funny can we think of others??

How long does it take a Nurse to change a lightbulb?
Only 1 minute, but then it takes her 45 minutes to document it.
