    Department forced to place picc lines

    I agree with Perpetual Student. It's a good skill to slap on the
  9. To add, now I ALWAYS empty my pockets before leaving the floor. The time I left with dilaudid, I had just felt around my pockets and thought the dilaudid was a pen.
  10. I brought 1 mg of dilaudid home once. Drove back to the hospital pronto, freaking out the whole time. Crushed norvasc? Wouldn't worry about it until my next shift. Maybe a phone call, if

    when patients go off the floor...

    Our patients aren't allowed to leave the floor. Most of them are hooked up to PCA's or loaded up on pain medication. We had an interesting patient escape the floor/hospital for a few hours. He had a...

    I hate infusing vanco through PIV's. The IV site almost always goes bad. No me gusta. Recently, pharmacy mixed a piggyback of vanco for my patient. It was 1,750 mg in 500 ml's and the label said to...

    Are bar codes efficiently?

    I like barcoding. I always wanted to work as a grocery store cashier and scanning the patient and medications fills the void. I get annoyed when the scanner won't connect to the internet and I have...

    Is there a happy medium here?

    Wow, she sounds awful. I remember that thread because it was such a strange expectation. The only thing you could do is sit down with her one and one and explain what you've written here on...
