    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    No, she didn't say anything. Just that (my preceptor and the aide) didn't need to get up as they figured I had it under control. Well, I guess I didn't. You sound like a nursing aide that I would...

    No, it's not worth it at all for a patient to fall. I have always said that if I patient falls in my watch, then I failed. God I would be so angry if a patient fell on my shift. It's a lot of...

    Yes, you are correct. Its 100% to know what someone is doing wrong in nursing. I would always ask "Did I do everything okay or was there anything that could have been done better?" "What am I doing...

    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    I never said she is inadequate. I fully admitted my communication and attitude towards the situation could have been better. I think it's safe to say it's possible you're assuming I'm a know it all...

  12. Is this considered bullying?

    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, you are very correct. The aide at the nursing station is my preceptors best friend. They both say there and did nothing. I'm not a know it all and think I'm better than anyone, but come on, there...

    Thank you for you're reply. I guess I did over react. I did freak out on the inside, but he was educated and we moved on. I was told to document patients refusal, but not about calling the doctor. I...

    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    You're definitely not overbearing. At first, you put me in my place and I thought about it. It was constructive cristism that helped. My posts are all over the place, so I appreciate the feedback. It...

    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    Oh wow-discharging a patient without shoes on and cuts on their feet? I wouldn't think someone would do that, let alone because they want to them to discharge quickly. Being professional is probably...

    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    Ilovenursing3 replied to Ilovenursing3's topic in General Nursing

    We wouldn't work on the same shift. Since it's an 8 patient bed unit, it's one nurse and one nursing aide. She's not my boss and I probably would never see her again at work. I'm sure most nurses...
