    Interdisciplinary Bullying!

    jadelpn replied to jtydelskiRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am sorry this is happening to you. Just stinks. The only thing I could add is that your manager needs to nip this in the bud. That is why your manager is there (well, in part, but you get where I...

    Visitor filming during code

    jadelpn replied to Lev's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Disresectful and rude on the part of the person filming. The film maker could get in trouble for even filming such a scenario. Intention and motive leave a real bad taste in anyone's mouth, as I am...

    Can't we all just get along??

    jadelpn replied to Cal-Neva's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Here's my thought process on this. It is really difficult to convey tone via posts. Sometimes, not matter how well written, posts that are meant to be lively debate can come across a whole bunch of...

    Pt's FB pictures of me

    jadelpn replied to rse3's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    We could debate this until the cows come home, and it remains the case that in fact in the privacy of one's own home, one can do whatever they would like to. However, it is my opinion that a line is...

    passive aggressive nurses

    jadelpn replied to treeye's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Usually, the ED is wanting to get the patient's admitted to the floor before they go home. Sometimes it is the floor that will not accept a patient at (or close to) shift change. It is really hard to...

    Mandatory meeting with employee relations?

    jadelpn replied to 1fastRN's topic in General Nursing

    Find your union rep. With that being said, it could be about someone ELSE, and they want your take on someone who perhaps you work with. Even if this is the case, make 500% sure that you have a...

    For the Bowel Obsessed

    jadelpn posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    I would tell you that this is meant to be a cheeky article, however, that would just add to the fray. Here's a question...Why is it now oh so appropriate to talk about people's bowel habits and...

    Pt's FB pictures of me

    jadelpn replied to rse3's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    The trouble is that the ONLY way the OP knew about the pictures, and mind you the name of the patient-- is due to her clinicals. So it was not as if it happend by chance--she remembered the name,...

    Right up there with tampons having positive affirmations on them. But that is a story for another thread!

    jadelpn replied to rse3's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    It would be a far different story if, in fact, the OP knew the person outside of being present at her delivery. But she apparently did not. The only "relationship" they have is that the OP was...

    Bullied by a new grad, wth???

    jadelpn replied to jayebug's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Restraints are a whole different thing. You need an order, and in some facilities the MD has to come in, look at the patient, order them, and they can not be "prn" type orders. And as nutty as it...

    But perhaps not if they then took a picture with you, put it on their social media page, and then you get contacted by them again to see if they could have the picture.... This is not a friend who...

    I signed up for what???

    jadelpn replied to jayebug's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    First off, on a completely personal level--go to your local department of revenue and see if you can get child support for your child. They can help you do that. Secondly, I am curious if perhaps you...

    Growing Up Unvaccinated

    jadelpn replied to wtbcrna's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Oh, and as a complete aside, my very, very favorite patients (ha ha) are the 18-21 year old young adults, who are moaning and groaning about "having had every illness" due to not being vaccinated,...

    Growing Up Unvaccinated

    jadelpn replied to wtbcrna's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I have a question, OP, were your parents fully vaccinated? It is astounding to me that fully vaccinated parents are the ones making decisions about how they are not going to vaccinate their children....

    Defensive/CYA charting

    jadelpn replied to HoneyBeGood's topic in General Nursing

    Here's the thing. If there is a policy at a facility that states as part of a nurse's responsibility is to notify a charge nurse of something--anything--then the only way to ensure that you did what...
