  1. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta posted a topic in Nursing Career

    I work in the operating room as a circulating nurse of a smaller rural hospital (5 ORs). We are on call throughout the week and on weekends. Currently, when we are on call we are also on call for the...

  2. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    No, you keep calling simple facts, statements, and the way things work at my facility as "excuses". A "tale"? You`re being comical at this

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    I have also stated the solution numerous times which you think isn't the solution apparently. Adequate training and competency. But apparently you would rather keep accusing me of "just making...

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    Furthermore, if surgery is surgery than pediatric, neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, etc are all the same and don't require specific training for those specialties? No... that`s not how it works....

  5. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    Not excuses. Yet again, legitimate reasons. You're lack of knowledge regarding the role is apparent. As the circulator you are responsible for all of those aspects and many more especially when its a...

  6. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    Not the same thing LOL. I don't know medications to give a pregnant/postpartum patient. I don't hemorrhage medications for c-sections. I don't know education to provide to a postpartum patient. I...

  7. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    LOL I don't know what your deal is at this point. The principal argument is still the same regardless of how you are trying to spin it. Management has not provided a solution to becoming trained and...

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    Understandable, but as I keep stating our management has not provided any solutions to being or staying competent in this

  11. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    I don't scrub in the OR. Orientation to the unit does not solve the problem. Not knowing where supplies are is not my "low-level" excuse. I am not making excuse I am stating facts that I am not...

  12. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    So you're saying L&D nurses can also come down to the OR and circulate any case? OB has their own call team and we have been told time and time again that they are adequately staffed. However,...

  13. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    I never said these cases are "so scary"? I am not able to receive adequate training for C-Sections because we do not do them in the OR department. They are done on a different floor. This provides the...

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    Its one of many examples. At the end of the day, I have not received adequate training to fulfill the role which places mother and baby safety at

  16. Forced to Assist in C-Sections

    Promacta replied to Promacta's topic in Nursing Career

    I have not received adequate training nor is it a department I am familiar with. I`m not going to put my license on the line when I get called in for a C-section and it goes sideways. Everyone in the...

  17. Forced to scrub C-sections

    Promacta posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Hello, at my facility when you are on call you are also on call for OB (mostly c-sections that are not done in the OR). You're not on call to fulfill a circulator role but to scrub into the case and...
