Mistake covered up (with mistake). It brings us deeper into ethical problem, even law. It cost a lot, even the job. It's a serious problem especially in JCI accredited health services (IPSG and QPS). It happened, luckily it did not run into sentinel event, and it was good you gained an insight and learned it hard way. The point is you try to be a good nurse at the end. Good luck.

Sad to hear. Having hundreds case of Covid-19 and found out a quarter of them died is depressing. She seemed to be so devoted to the work, but being contracted with the virus prevented her from doing her job which may have driven her feeling unable to provide helps.

Very valuable information. Thank you. We need to provide more support to our staff faving the situation. Will help them with more valuable information.

Nowadays, ones can be fired with reasons or even none. Better be cautious when having conversation about matters similar to patient conditions. When overheard by someone who doesn't have sufficient knowledge about the matter it can create distorted perception that may lead to some extent of trouble.

When trully run as JCI accredited health provider, this won't happen. My heart goes to the patient.

If that happens to me, a single upper cut at the jaw bone is the only proper answer. When all are tired not to eat up someone onboard.

In my first 5 years working, words was coming while bathing a late 50s father with brain atrophy, "I wish I could take as a son in law". Found out his daughter had a beauty that was more than I deserve. 😁

Since I'm not an English spoken nurse, I honestly love to see and learn many brilliant expression of experienced nurses in discussing subjects or matters that I'm interested in. I reply sometimes, expecting anyone will respond accordingly if my English isn't appropriate to the context being discussed. Other than that, I love nursing as it's been my line of work for around 35 years.

Mine? before entering nursing college. Uh, two full years at cleaning service agency. Cleaning toilets, stores, dumping garbage from mall every other day.

Hei. You did fine. All I see were part of learning while doing job. There were times that we almost never see that we are doing things right when the progress isn't what we expected. Having co-workers or superior that commenting like they can do things better than you is mostly frustrating, but I see it also part of challenges in day-to-day work. Been dealing with many with type I diabetic, sometimes the progress appears unexpectedly, but as long as we were with the patient through the event, we can anticipate most of negative outcomes, or at least minimize it. Working for one year should have made you learned a bit about how to be tough in dealing with Co-workers who used to show off and keep telling craps about their competence. Dont be so hard on yourself. little failure here and there is human. Stay learning, give it a chance, then you will find the moment that you feel things "click", or you start enjoying your work. ;-)

It raises a question on my side. It could probably be caused by the culture about patient safety hasn't yet well established in your department? Reporting error is a must. If you're then bullied yet the issued wasn't followed up then it is.

I did several CPR with the presence of blood or vomited materials. My view, comply to standar precaution seemengly enough. ;-)

Leave nursing if that makes you happy. Focus your energy on what that you have more passion in it. Don't look back. And, never regret.

I do few things. Modifying my sportbike, teaching some subject at Nursing School, repairing friends' personal computer, carpentry, and my newest project ATM is getting involved in developing our new house. Those just to make my daily life more colorful. ;-)

It is good to back off for a while. Take enough time to make more insight, then out to refresh our judgement. Who knows we gain better understanding of the drama. Based on my time in the past, if we good enough with the job, good means having most things done well, have appropriate positioning in the team, always making firm decisions. Then most co-workers will think twice to make a mess with us. If they do then they will lose our good support in a team. I had one in the past, a co-worker who did all possible things to make me out of her way. But I treat her normally and formally as co-worker. Later she quitted the job as any worst situation related to the work mostly turn out to be her fault. I believe you want to do the same thing, because spending 8 hours a day in that scene isn't productive and tiring.
