    Batman25 replied to big bang theory's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  8. Legitimate Pain or no?

    Batman25 replied to MiaNursingStudent's topic in General Nursing

    You were right and the nurse was wrong. The dosage does seem too low. I would expect this patient to have quite a bit of pain given her circumstances. Unfortunately some nurses can go on a power trip...

    Batman25 replied to CNABESS's topic in General Nursing

    You sound like an excellent CNA and a very caring person. Your neighbor was lucky to have you with her at such a vulnerable time. I'm glad you are moving forward with a complaint. Be sure to give one...

    Batman25 replied to NocturneNrse's topic in General Nursing

    Batman25 replied to Umrn1's topic in General Nursing

    Are the CNAs gooding off? Are they watching tv, texting, talking, etc. when they should be working? If they are then you need to start delegating and checking up. When work isn't being done you need...

  15. very little patient interaction

    Batman25 replied to Simply Complicated's topic in General Nursing

    I work MS and unfortunately I don't get to spend as much time with my patients as I'd like to either. This seems to be quite comment in a lot of different departments these days due to low staffing...

  16. Blood, Bodily Fluids and Germs OH MY!

    Batman25 replied to Lisa, MA's topic in General Nursing

    I always strip down and shower/shampoo when I get home. My clothes go right into the wash too. I feel yucky when I get home and feel so much better when I get out of a hot shower and put on clean and...

  17. *Vent* RN's make toast?!?!?!

    Batman25 replied to WickedRedRN's topic in General Nursing

    There is no way in hell I would be able to make toast for 5-6 patients every morning on M/S. It just isn't happening on my floor. Techs don't have the time either. If dietary can't do it then the...

  18. Medication Error..total sadface : (

    Batman25 replied to NightNurse876's topic in General Nursing

    The most important thing is the patient didn't get hurt. After that consider it a mistake and a blessing no one was hurt. You also learned here not to take on more than you can handle especially when...

  19. Underwear and patients

    Batman25 replied to twinkerrs's topic in General Nursing

    That crossed my mind as well. If it is their idea the medical team should have told them it was a modesty issue and they have no right to hold his underwear based on his personal choice whether it be...

  20. confused by call in policy....

    Batman25 replied to wanderinrn's topic in General Nursing

    You went to work and were sent home due to low census. I would go to HR. You shouldn't be "charged" here. We wouldn't be where I

  21. Underwear and patients

    Batman25 replied to twinkerrs's topic in General Nursing

    Are his parents involved in his care? They could raise hell about this as it is a dignity issue. You need to get yourself calm and then go ask some questions. Don't be accusatory and first find out...

    Batman25 replied to SoundofMusic's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I would never risk my license and if you seriously feel your license is at risk then leave immediately. I would make an appointment with your manager and let them know that you will be leaving...

  23. HIPPA and finding someone who cares

    Batman25 replied to CaptKris's topic in General Nursing

    The fact that you are keeping the info disturbs me just as much as the people who keep sending it. Shred the docs at once as instructed. That is what you should be doing. Don't make a bad situation...

  24. I had an 89 yr old patient curse out the doctor today.

    Batman25 replied to my.toys's topic in General Nursing

    You need to give the patient a break here. Getting news you are terminal can be shocking and frightening regardless of your age. I'm sure the doctor understood it wasn't them she was yelling at but...

  25. RN would like other opinions from nurses on this awkward MD/insurance issue

    Batman25 replied to pensivern's topic in General Nursing

    TY for the explanation. Sounds like this is the wave of the future and this thread has been educational. I wasn't aware of the change as it hasn't been an issue yet on my
