    "Discrepancies" In Epic Documentation

    JKL33 replied to Faithx14's topic in General Nursing

    Hmm. Well, for lack of a more knowledgeable thing to say: Proceed with caution. On the one hand it's going to be hard for them to maintain that they considered you a risk or that they...

    7 on - 7 off shift schedule

    JKL33 replied to SunDazed's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know but this isn't her fault. I'd stop focusing on her if I were you. They needed her help badly enough on MTWTh that they let her work those days. Not the employees'...

    We are so short today that I have a bucket next to me to pee in.

    JKL33 replied to carebear01's topic in General Nursing

    But see, if there is some standard that these things should be taken care of urgently, then others need to participate. They need to pony up resources. Even with you working as long and as fast...

    Walden University MSN FNP Student in need of Answers and Support

    JKL33 replied to TiredAspiringFNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Contradictory statement. There is every possibility of coming out with crap clinical experience when the school decides not to participate and the student has to beg and possibly pay any random...

    Your Local Pharmacist Can Now Prescribe Paxlovid To Treat COVID-19

    JKL33 replied to Terry Ann Donner's topic in Disaster Preparation

    https://www.nbcbayarea.com/investigations/pharmacists-prescribe-paxlovid/2974418/ Ridiculous. Ha, ha. Meanwhile everyone else struggling to get 99213 out of all the virtual covid...

    Not Exactly HIPAA, But Worried I Said Too Much

    JKL33 replied to guest998179's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Your statement was perfectly fine. Speaking of irrational fear, health systems often over-generalize about HIPAA inappropriately. This leads to misunderstanding and unnecessary fear. All is...

    My First Code Blue! Still Trying To Process It

    JKL33 replied to Dani_Mila's topic in General Nursing

    Sick patient. You did fine. My first code the code team came screeching into the room and some big guy yelled, "WHAT HAPPENED HERE!" as if I had personally strangled the patient. All I could...

    Calling A Code Death (call police?)

    JKL33 replied to Jcezz's topic in General Nursing

    You can look up California death reporting laws and go from there. I did it after I read your post but will not try to interpret them for your specific situation. No....again, whatever the...

    Calling A Code Death (call police?)

    JKL33 replied to Jcezz's topic in General Nursing

    The answer here is not based upon anyone's opinion about what is better for the facility/their legal risk. It would be based upon your state or jurisdiction's coroner/ME/death reporting laws. You...

    To sign the contract or not to sign?

    JKL33 replied to CalmCurator's topic in General Students

    I am an experienced nurse and am at a different place in life. However, there is ZERO way I would sign a 3-year contract. I would not advise any new grad that I know to sign any contract....

    NICU Nurses Are Not Nannies

    JKL33 replied to byebyebedside's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think your take is unreasonable, personally. I trust that you have seen many, many patients and families and you are here to discuss a distinction. I do agree with the opposing thoughts...

    Patient Assessment

    JKL33 replied to LovingPeds's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think the care you describe is the right way to do things and I agree w/ above poster regarding the variety of reasons/factors that may be involved. But as for standards....I left because...

    Documentation of report of gradual change

    JKL33 replied to OttoRN's topic in General Nursing

    Did you go back and document that after their actions, or at the time you reported to the MD? If the above was part of your original documentation and not something you just went back and wrote...

    Just realized a Dilaudid waste error. What do I do?!

    JKL33 replied to michgru8226's topic in General Nursing

    Agree with the above. This will show up in pharmacy system as unaccounted-for controlled substance and you don't want that. This is a good lesson about what should or should not make us feel...

    At Clinic, Offered Hospital Position

    JKL33 replied to evamomo's topic in Nursing Career

    That is very likely not going to happen. It wouldn't happen in any hospital I've worked anyway, and the principle is the same anywhere/everywhere that an orientation period is required: They will not...

    Quitting First Nursing Job

    JKL33 replied to Lynker's topic in Nursing Career

    As a matter of fact, yes. For me it took accepting the fact that it was no longer the place that I once loved. It was as simple as that...and ultimately complicated at the same time, but that's...

    FNP School

    What does this order permit? In terms of frequency?

    JKL33 replied to Della4's topic in Patient Medications

    It isn't wrong to reach out to the prescriber since it is employees at your place who are having a hard time understanding what the order means. In general though, with your additional information it...

    Burnt Out As A New Nurse

    JKL33 replied to RNa23's topic in First Year After Licensure

    If that's what you took away from everything I took the time to write, I have nothing further to say. If you care to take any time to read how much I hate large hospital systems and how they...

    What does this order permit? In terms of frequency?

    JKL33 replied to Della4's topic in Patient Medications

    I don't know if it is your facility that is putting limitations on you (about contacting the prescriber), but if you are the one expected to dole out the medication then it is nonsense to say that you...

    Something has to change

    JKL33 replied to CommunityRNBSN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I suspect they receive heavy feedback about this on exit surveys. This is everyone, state universities and other brick & mortar universities, schools otherwise very highly regarded, not just...

    Got An Offer For Dayshift But Was Asked To Work Nightshift

    JKL33 replied to yoon519's topic in General Nursing

    Find a different position then tell this one you are resigning since the position for which they hired you is not available.
