maybe you friend didn't "report" you but went to ask what happened and ended up getting into a little bit of trouble herself and the DON decided to make the big deal out of it. i would suggest you might consider writing a letter to both your friend and the DON, stating it wasn't your intention to make anyone uncomfortable, nor to cross any professinal lines, and appoligize.

there are so many non hospital/nursinghome option out there. too many to list i think i've been a nurse for many many years and have only working in a facility for 1 year. i;ll giv eyou a few that come to mind easy homecare, public health hosipce school nurse nurse advocate medical marketing medical manufacturing doctor's office industiral nurse occupational health nurse nursing education look at the sub specialities list on here

I haven't read any response due to time and while you must do what you need to do for you family situation not only am i a nurse but the daughter of a nurse i still remember being 6 years old and waking up, having been sleep walking out on to my parents front porch screaming for my mother this was the ngith before my mom wen t intot work and told them she would no longer work rotating shifts, put her on one and keep her there it was too distruptive for me not knowing when she's be home

AAhhh haaa... craigslist had nursing jobs list for 1-4 wks commitment $5,000 per week, luxury hotel accomidations figured there was a strike pending somewhere

I'd talk to the schoolwith the 2nd degree program, they might accomidate your need for Part time, I got my BSN in a 2nd degree program many moons ago also look at entry level MSN programs, sometimes you can take a year or 2 off before goin gon for your masters... find a school close to you whihc you liek and talk to them about your options

II think you need to tell the NM what the senior nursing are doing, there is NO WAY 2-3 pt verse 7 pt is fair for any reason they are abusing their role and you adnthe other nurse if they always got the one less pt, while not nice, it's not a huge deal Ithinkthe NM need to know what up,

I work at a place that has a motion senser alarm where the sound emitting part is at the desk so the pt never has to hear it. I found it very anoying but I guess it works

I think it depend on what "descision Maker" legally entails I work as part time a pvt Geri case manger fora legal guardian of demented elders. I have written permission to have access to all medical information for our clients. I can walk into any facility and look at any of their charts without notice, I just have to give them a copy of my releases. is the pt compitent? are they demented? a HCP doesn't have any rights until the pt is unable to maek their own health care choices. if you didn't have written documentation of his right to look at the chart you did the correct thing. if he does have a right to the chart he need to provide it to the facility to be put in the chart

most places I've worked put up the sign-up for holidays just after the new year, this let people sign up for what they want and then the scheduler make sure it all works

go to HR and have a meetign with HR and the nurse manager. they are legally obligated to keep confidenial info private. if you would be a risk to give notice, that it would give an abuser a chance to figure out your plan to leave. make an appt w/ HR, then pack you bags, meet with HR/ nurse manger tell them what and why and just keep on driving. good luck and be safe

sounds a little bit like a homework assignment to me... and you do need to notify the MD the pt is refusing the meds

if you have no drainage could it be epithilaized? I think it's pretty rare but I have heard deep wound epithializing. also call the wound vac company, I believe that there is NOT any size limits big or small

if you can't remove the fuild in the ballon just cut the catheter... sure has heck DON"T just pull it out if you can't remove the fuild. Working in Home care/ hospice finding a syrigne to remove the fuild can be imposible but you can always deflate the balloon by cutting the catheter. you can just cut off the fill port while covering the port with a chuck and the balloon is empty.
