filipino nurses should be speaking in english because they went and learn english in school so they have to apply this knowledge in english environment like work,this is a country of people speaking english...and yes they can speak their language but it has to be at home.Just a reminder you are in a country of people that their language is english

TLC..........

you have to call the DON of that hospital and find out their protocol or guidelines in taking care of s/p TKA.I'm pretty sure its not the surgeon's order.Having skin breakdown at the hospital is common now a days because lack of care.

It is well said and its only the philippines could actually straighten or change the system.united states has got nothing to do with it...they have to start on people in higher position.....

they say if you start with one tattoo you will want another one...then three...and still your not satisfied...how about you start with syringe then stethoscope then tounge depressor then bed pan until you can look at your body like medical piece....i'm not very helpful isnt it....sorry.....

i am kind confused of what drug you are trying to legalize....if its controlled DEA is on top of that right now believe me........there are regulations,policies covering the issues on drugs....

you even have to make sure the patient swallow his or her medications if refused do not leave it at the bedside.....waste it and document the reason for refusal, just my 2 cents advise.

document....document....founded or unfounded, abuse and neglect statement you have to treat it like it happened...when you reported it to your adon that responsibility is already hers....

i like what ROSER 13 said its 2011 not 1811 you put a smile on my face,you go for it and you will be one of a heck excellent nurse....

oh! NO...DIGNITY AND RESPECT IS THE LAST THING THAT YOU WILL SERVE TO THAT HUMAN BEING...if i have to pay for the gown i will....

you have to check staffing regulation,in my facility a licensed nurse ratio is 1:40 at night.Day shift is 1 to 30 residents, long term care must be in compliance with staffing ratio to meet the residents needs.

:yeah::yeah:job well done.....

right practice is to call the physician any time you can not administer the ordered meds. you should not run out if its routine meds.refill 3 days before,should be available in each station e kit. which your pharmacy can provide.Your don can actually take care of those simple issues.Do not borrow medications substandard practice and its your license not anybody else protect it......

in my work nurse can only attempt to do peripheral line 3x if you cant get it send them for picc line at the hospital that way res. can keep it longer because for peripheral line you have to change site every 3 days.you have to be patience and take time.

according to infection control definition is airborne and i dont blame you for panicking but you have time to prevent it,either call the department of health or your physician so they can start screening,remember tuberculosis is treatable.

yes,in my facility we used it and we include it as our skin care guidelines and we got medical director to approved it for c.n.a. to apply it,now its different if you write on tar looks like its physicians order for that residents and should be administered by a license nurse so its really how you write it.....

come to florida you can do it both....

even you are right just think of all the agravation,move on and be happy with your next job.

if your co worker treats you like that how these nurses treat their patients,in my work thats a violation of company policy which is discourtesy to staff and or the general public also considered unsatisfactory work and or attitude, inconsiderate treatment or maltreatment of others.Obviously bullies has poor self esteem.

to me its always go back to traditional meaning tender loving care,think of florence nightingale.

long term care deals a lot of regulations.policies and procedures,i'm sure that would be the high light of your interview,assure the DON that you are responsible and accountable in all the things you do.

do not feel bad about it,you know in your heart and mind you did the best you can to serve the patient.Family members are irrational a lot of times,they can even fire their doctor.

when you say drama?is it the management or staff drama,if its affecting your job responsibilities and you are not happy,its better to changed environment where you can be happy to do your job.

dress professionally,say thank you for the chance of the interview, sit upright,smile and always make eye contact, show your confidence that you got the skills to do the job.

definitely we are talking behavior problem? i will document exact words for words pleasant or unpleasant,it will be my documentation,difinitely i can remember these words in 5 years....not anybody else...my advice is review the regulation on proper documentation...protect your client and yourself..
