The DON is basically having one nurse do the job of 2 people.

I will recommend using an antifungal powder to help with moisture

Dont do med-surg!!!

The Webwoc and Emory courses cost about $6,500 so I dont think it is cost effective to send all your nurses to school for that amount of money each.

I second the previous posters comment. You will learn and gain more by working part-time in a pastry or cupcake shop than going to culinary school. It will help you see if this is what you really want to do longterm.

I admire the fact that you are writing these notes. My main concern is that the patients who couldnt remember your name when they got home, now have a note from you that includes your name. In the cases where lawsuits are filed, they can pull out you...

I think your market would be infectious disease doctors who would send you their patients who need picc lines for long term antibiotic therapy. You might need to offer outpatient infusion services in order to capture more charges. You ll also need ...

Yea It probably is a patient with a neobladder. They have to be flushed or they will clog up with mucus.

I think it depends on the state you are in. I don't know of any hospitals in Georgia that have rotating shifts. But my friends in other states mention that they rotate D/E/N.

I second the post on setting boundaries.

Where can I find a corporate oil and gas job? Please sign me up! At least the pay is worth it.

I believe it is the Hurricane spray that you are referring to . It has up to 20% benzocaine.

Wait so the family had visited for the first two days and then he did not want to see them on the third day? Seems to me that they knew where he was and his room so how were you to magically HIPAA them on the third day?

Why didn't they fire 1,300 employees if they were so concerned about the "mandatory flu vaccines"

Did any one read this part of the article? So 3 veteran nurses out of 8. Why only these eight? The one nurse in the story had spent 22years there. "The hospital said in a statement that it implemented the mandate to promote patient safety based on r...

This is one of the reasons I enjoy the Float pool, the ability to go to different floors/specialties keeps me from getting bored

I couldn't find a cowboy costume so the ship's nurse lent me her scrubs.

The reason I asked about edema is because with edema the wound will not heal unless there is adequate compression to decrease the swelling. Dereased swelling will lead to increased blood flow and faster healing. For compression we use full profore (4...

Seems like the patient needs to be debrided on a regular basis. Have you tried medihoney on the wound? Also is there any edema in the LE, that might be delaying wound healing.

Oh no, not a bad day. she could just be having a very BUSY day!

I will advice the OP to fill out an incident report and document the bruise for workers comp. And please take the night off.

I read this as wash after every year. LOL

No wonder Dr Ego can never find his stethoscope. A nurse flung it into outer space.

When I got to go, I got to go. I tell my patient's, co-workers etc I ll be right back if I need to go. I aint gonna be the saint patron of IVS.
