  1. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    I’m surprised this is an issue. How difficult would it be for the facility to pull up the camera on that patient and see who the negligent staff is that hasn’t been turning

  5. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    Not based on what I’ve seen coming back from nursing homes. Some are definitely better, but some are disgusting. We looked around a good while before we put my grandma in

  10. Anyone Ever Actually Used Their Malpractice Insurance?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to PMHNP2023's topic in General Nursing

    I don’t have it and I don’t know anyone with it. Usually they’re going after the people with the money. Namely the hospital

  11. Anti-Vaxxers Shut Down Immunization Events

    ArmyRntoMD replied to J.Adderton's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Eh I’m for personal choice. Convince people to get vaccines and more transparency will help. The big problem is people don’t trust the corporations that create the vaccines, and I honestly don’t...

  12. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    With you on floor nurses. No way I would take on 8 patients. Talk about run your *** off. I did that at LTAC for a year and a half and never

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

  14. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    It’s not an insult. It definitely takes skill- time management. That was one thing working LTAC gave me aswell. It’s just not the kind of work I enjoy. Nothing wrong with it. Just a lot of...

  16. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    It’s usually achievable where I work. I can’t say there’s never been a time I haven’t, but it’s pretty much the norm. Some of my patients are so needy I do 30 min rounding on them....

  17. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    2 hours is a stretch? We do hourly rounding at my hospital. And the chances that they died immediately after your last rounding and you didn’t notice anything off is slim. Between nurses and...

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

  20. Can’t a nurse be fired?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

    I don’t know how that is. Where I work each floor has accountability. If I get a patient from another floor with DU and there’s no documentation, I’m going to be documenting and it shows that it...

  21. Why is BSN required for CRNA?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to MM1989's topic in General Nursing

    I enjoy organic chem as well, what I’m saying is you actually have to KNOW what you’re talking about. Much of nursing is very much opinion and not a “hard science”. The parts that were, are...

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Barbara Fouch Lentz's topic in General Nursing

  25. Call to action! Nurses in Monitoring Programs

    ArmyRntoMD replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Activism, Healthcare
