Power outage longer then 4 hours

One of our MD we fax the Inr and the other md we have a protocol for

We had one patient on it and he did however have heart issues - he died two days later haven't had anyone on it since

Don't write will continue to monitor - will you be there every shift to monitor this patient? This is what I was told! If it's not right feel free to correct me:-)

Colonized MRSA does not need isolation precautions so I would assume not infectious anymore but don't quote me!

So how is peritoneal dialysis? Anyone?

I work in a subacute ventilator unit and we have a full time RT on at all times - sometimes even 2! It is great!!!!!!

Doctor really? Hahahahahahahaha

Miggs73 Wow is that all we nurses do? My day consists of assessing patients continuously watching for signs of worsening condition! When a code happens pumping on someone's chest when their heart stops and giving them breaths with the ambubag! When and if the patient passes away having the responsibility of telling the family their loved one has passed! Suctioning patients who have trachs and vents, giving them their meds. We are the eyes for the dr if we don't see it by our assessments and let the dr know patients can die. Really it sounds to me that yes you may make plenty of money but you need to educate yourself on what the job description of a nurse is!!!!!!

Wow yea I have a patient that does this almost every single day:-(

We put it back in as well

All of my patients have GTubes/Peg tubes and we do instill air and check residual before each flush - I would have contacted the Dr as well and held the feed!

PA started in SNF as new grad RN 26.14 base , 5.00 diff on 2nd , 3.00 diff on 3rd

I graduated in August and got hired on straight days and I love it! I find that I could lots of experience with everything during the day but that's my opinion.

I work SNF as a new grad in PA started at 26.14/hr - 5.00 second shift diff and 3.00 third shift
