    Manager Falsified my initials

    JKL33 replied to Tanisha Hill's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Good for you! That is awesome. It sounds like you're doing a great job. Well, that's kind of annoying but it probably indicates that she wants to mend fences. It probably also...

    Receiving verbal and telephone orders

    JKL33 replied to Serotonin2's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I'm sorry. Did your supervisor offer support, as in does s/he understand that you won't be practicing this way? Hang in there. (Or possibly don't hang in there if you have other

    Receiving verbal and telephone orders

    JKL33 replied to Serotonin2's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Do not take orders that have been received by assistive personnel. I know it must be incredibly uncomfortable to be exposed to your preceptor's completely inappropriate desires, but you do have...

    How do you handle difficult team members?

    JKL33 replied to lexieanders's topic in General Nursing

    What is the make-up of the team (I.e. is this person an RN or LPN) and how are responsibilities divided in

    Change of shift nurse’s notes. Redundant? Necessary?

    JKL33 replied to TigerGalLE's topic in General Nursing

    Agree. OP, I think this seems redundant because two people are charting about the same thing. In my view, though, each of the two RNs has an interest in documenting the thing that they are...

    Compassion Fatigue - Staying Positive

    JKL33 replied to JeanstarMSN's topic in General Nursing

    I think trying to live one's best life is an idea that is separate from interventions undertaken to combat nursing stress. The reason they are two separate things to me is because of the...

    Nursing Care Plan for Covid Patients

    JKL33 replied to helpmepassnursing.'s topic in Disaster Preparation

    Well, I will give you some commentary about the nutrition-related dx you chose. In my opinion it is more appropriate for someone for whom emotional/mental readiness/receptiveness has been the main...

    Nursing Care Plan for Covid Patients

    JKL33 replied to helpmepassnursing.'s topic in Disaster Preparation

    There is quite a list of diagnoses that could be relevant to Covid-19 infection in general. But I'm thinking of two that directly flow from this information ^ The first diagnosis you chose is...

    Was I in the Right Here?

    JKL33 replied to Grande_latte04's topic in General Nursing

    Understandable and thanks for explaining. Your handling of the situation you posted about is a good move towards protecting yourself and conserving emotional energy, actually. If you can become...

    Manager Falsified my initials

    JKL33 replied to Tanisha Hill's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Editing a little bit: I was initially thinking there could be some pretty nefarious reasons she might do this, but it would be incredibly stupid to blame whatever it is on someone who wasn't there...

    Was I in the Right Here?

    JKL33 replied to Grande_latte04's topic in General Nursing

    @anewsns - not picking on you, but your post made me go back to what the OP said about burning out. And I do have something to say about it. ? On second take, I am curious what burning/burnt...

    Manager Falsified my initials

    JKL33 replied to Tanisha Hill's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Sorry you are dealing with this. It is hard to say why she falsified your initials, but there is no justifiable reason to have done it when she knew who did administer the injection. Even if you...

    How do I stop being so emotional as a new nurse?

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

    Hello! Interesting question. Did you have an opportunity to discuss this at all during nursing school--perhaps at clinicals/post-conference or during mental health nursing or other occasions...

    Dosage Calc IV Infusion Question

    JKL33 replied to Paigeh23's topic in General Nursing

    You have your KCl in a 500 ml bag of fluid. How much KCl is in that bag? If you run the 500 ml bag in 1 hour how many mEq of KCl would you have administered? How much KCl are you supposed to...

    Healthy 44 year old BBC Radio personality dies from Covid vaccine complications

    My heart goes out to this woman's family. I do hope that their heartbreak and grief is not complicated by people suggesting that taking the vaccine was not a reasonable thing for her to do. It...

    Where do you go when you don't trust official data sources?

    JKL33 replied to 10GaugeNeedles's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This is really unnecessary. I have seen it myself and not infrequently. People driving alone in their cars with masks on, people out in nature with no one around them with their masks on....

    Pushed by quacks, use of Ivermectin is poisoning people

    I don't personally understand how people are this daring. I was going to say brave but that definitely isn't the right sentiment. But I must reluctantly add that there is a historical culture...

    First Few Weeks on Unit and Feeling Overwhelmed

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

    If you work (3) 12s, decide what day is going to be grocery shopping day, decide what day is going to be laundry day. This won't be the same each week. But you can make a plan for the week and say,...

    Best nursing shoes ?

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

    The ubiquitous Dansko Pro XPs didn't feel good on my feet at all. But another of their clogs did. Have been wearing them for years and have always been comfortable with a full day's walking and...

    I think you handled it fine. Good for you for keeping your composure. I would inform his provider of his behavior and document neutrally but clearly in the chart. Wording such as "banging stick...

    Where do you go when you don't trust official data sources?
