thanks for the great comments keep them coming also she has been fired as don from three other facilities AND led to her car....there was other applicants record free..also I feel she will go into deferred prosecution and that will keep here record clean :(

I work in a LTC facility in which the prior DON resigned under threat of being fired...They have hired a new DON who cant come to work until she goes to court for the charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor (she had a booze party and invited underage drinkers) I would really like everyones thoughts on this

i work in a ltc facility...If I had a resident who was a very picky eater at the table but took fluids well....and if I did////she had peg tube feedings twice and night at 2200 and 0500...2 cal jevity....lab work may reveal a very high bun and creatinine could this mean she is not getting her feedings when she should be...also if I had this resident and she was in end stage renal failure could that cause lab results as such....also if I had this resident and she was getting lasix 60 mg every am would that make a difference in her lab values...also if i had this resident and she had average urine output maybe 400-500 every 8 hr shift would that have any bearing on lab values....i dont know about any weight loss at this time
