   MeganMN replied to Joe V's topic in COVID

   We had a patient in ICU 2, and at the time, we had a no visitor policy regardless of Covid status. The patient in ICU said his wife wanted to visit at the window. Later, I went into ICU 1 to see my other patient, and she had some dementia. She was...

7. Gross Me Out ? Contest | Nurses Week

   MeganMN replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

   This is a toss up for me, so I will list the three.... 1. I was a nursing aid, in nursing school. The patient had been admitted for a stroke, and had some serious word salad. He also, unfortunately, had a wicked case of diarrhea. His diarrhea w...

8. Infection after Vaccination?

   MeganMN replied to MeganMN's topic in COVID

   It is interesting to think about. I have another patient today that tested positive after vaccination (both doses). She was asymptomatic, however, so it makes me wonder if the 'breakthrough' numbers could actually be much higher, but the vaccine is...

9. Infection after Vaccination?

   MeganMN replied to MeganMN's topic in COVID

   @toomuchbaloney I work tomorrow and will check with our infection control nurse. I do not know the answer to your question about reporting. The patients were all in between the first and second shot, so perhaps it isn't included in the statistics ab...

10. Infection after Vaccination?

    MeganMN replied to MeganMN's topic in COVID

    @GrumpyRN it is not something that I am finding, it is something that I am experiencing first hand at my hospital. I just wondered if others were seeing I as well.

11. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in COVID

    Agreed. Thankfully, I do not have to make that decision. If I do visit with family I will drive and not stop anywhere unless absolutely necessary. I know my decision affects those around me. I am trying to be aware, respectful, and mindful.

13. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in COVID

    None. I live in the country, wear my masks when I go out, homeschool my kids, and pick up my groceries. My circle of influence is small. The people I spend time around have either had the infection or have a small circle as well. My infection control...

15. Infection after Vaccination?

    MeganMN posted a topic in COVID

    We have been admitting a large amount of people who have become infected after their first round of vaccine, before they get their second. Are any others out there seeing this? Do you think it is because they are dropping their guard too soon? Is th...
