  1. A good nurse or a bad nurse? Seriously? Radonda over-rode the safety systems in place to protect her patients and inspite of multiple warnings gave vecuronium instead of versed. Her patient lay...
  2. Stuck Between A Rock And A Hard Place

    Regarding your pregnancy, I wouldn't make a bet on not being discriminated against. Yes it isn't legal, but the burden of proof would be on you. If you want the job then accept it. Try to get...

  4. Gov Cuomo took it one step further and mandated that nursing homes had to accept COVID19 positive patients. Nothing like cleaning out the nursing homes for the sake of "the future." Sweden took a...

  6. Med Error

    I haven't seen much in the way of attacks. I have seen a few posts regarding the seriousness of the error. Have you done some education regarding insulin and IV inulin use? Please don't leave...
  7. No! However, if you think that a colleague has COVID19 and isn't taking the appropriate test you do have a duty to report this up the chain of command. People can be exposed to COVID19 at a...
  8. Med Error

    Ovier-riding the safety systems that are in place to protect the patients is a HUGE red flag. Yes, as humans we all make mistakes. How many have made a mistake of this magnitude? This mistake...
  9. Med Error

    So you over-road the built in safety systems by giving insulin before the double sign off and then you gave a 100 fold overdose of insulin. Reporting to the BON is that director's...

  11. The main reasons for purging all air from and art line is that number one air is compressible. Since it is compressible it will mute your wave form and destroy the accuracy of your pressures...
  12. I'm Done

    Darwin fixes stupid. We just don't have enough Darwin to fix all of the stupid. From the sample of Darwin that we've had in the last year, I'm not looking forward to more
  13. Big Med Error.

    You are allowed to be human. You didn't try to cover up your mistake. You did what was in your patient's best interest. Your patient will be OK. Take a deep breath and let it out slowly....
  14. Quitting without notice?

    You are still in the probationary period. No notice is required. Do pay them to courtesy of calling to inform them that the position is just not a good fit. If HR asks if you would do an exit...
  15. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

    People possess an infinite capacity to rationalize and thus have a million excuses to not see that vaccination is the decent thing to do. I've heard that they use fetal cell an I don't want to...
  16. Nurses are Fleeing the Hospital

    Working conditions in bedside nursing are long hours which are physically and mentally taxing with very little in the way of a breaks to use the bathroom, grab a drink, or just catch ones breath....
  17. I read about this. I hope that they are prosecuted to the full extent of the law. If one of those 8500 die before getting an actual vaccine I wonder if this would be consider murder under German...
  18. Termination From Employer For Refusing EUV

    At the center of nursing lies the patient. Take a look at the situation from a patient centered perspective. How many vaccines have caused long term ill effects? How many patients have...
  19. If you are unvaxxed at this point you have chosen to receive your immunity to COVID19 the old fashioned way. COVID19 isn't going way. When we have gained immunity by vaccination and repeat infection...
  20. Perhaps you should resort to even more name calling. Perhaps it will persuade someone if you keep acting like the South side of a North bound mule. BTW Vaxxed during the Pfizer trial. Your...
  21. Just Want to Cry and Quit

    If you have the ability to travel for work have you thought about taking one of those high paying COVID travel positions. I've heard of as much as 150K for 16 weeks work. You could bury yourself in...
  22. Patient Refusing Unvaccinated RN

    Please quit trying to put words in my mouth. It is getting rather tiresome. At no time did I say that varicella and COVID are similar. It is a joke. I'm beginning to regret that some of the people...
  23. Patient Refusing Unvaccinated RN

    Please stay calm. No one is trying to threaten you. The chicken pox thing is not an analogy. It is a joke and an example of gaining immunity
  24. Patient Refusing Unvaccinated RN

    "Are any of you old enough that your parents sent you to play will a playmate who had chicken pox so that you could catch it and "get it over with?" What an absolutely ridiculous analogy. "...
  25. Patient Refusing Unvaccinated RN

    Here is the original post which has been quoted a couple of times out of context: " The wife was not wrong. Vaccination dramatically reduces the odds of infection. Info coming...
