  2. ICU vs Travel nursing

    Triddin replied to tindera's topic in General Nursing

  6. Risk for Aspiration - Should a nurse go against physician orders to raise HOB?

    Triddin replied to Lorie Brown RN, MN, JD's topic in Nursing Career

    I'm curious as the clinical reasoning behind keeping the patient supine as this is not a drug I'm familiar with. Could you have turned the patient to their side? No longer an aspiration

  7. Nurse Gives Lethal Dose of Vecuronium Instead of Versed

    Triddin replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Your story raises red flags with me, and I don't think it confirms the point you were trying to make, but its partially it's because we don't know your background and experience. Were you icu/ Er...

  8. Nurse Gives Lethal Dose of Vecuronium Instead of Versed

  12. Care Plan Help-Liver Cancer and Cardiogenic shock secondary to SVT.

    Triddin replied to ericamarr's topic in General Students

  13. Mandatory Vaccination

    Triddin replied to degfnp's topic in General Nursing

  23. New nurse struggling

    Triddin replied to texasBSN15's topic in Nursing Career
