i came in for the morning shift, pt Respiration 44, pulse 144, clammy, the MD ordered it anyway...pt expired 4 hours after. i went home and can't stop thinking about it.

If a hospice patient is allergic to Morphine Sulfate, can she still receive Roxanol for her dyspnea? Should I clarify with the MD? Pt. is actively dying.

Is it okay to thank & express your appreciation to your favorite MD? Very kind to patient & very approachable and always available no matter what time you call either 1 am or 1 pm.

I'm beating myself up. I've been doing my best to take care of these residents, but still I have 4 people with UTI. What's wrong with me?

Stethoscope, scissor, highlighters of different colors and lots of pens!

thank you everyone

Hello everyone, What is your opinion on that? I am the person who got hurt physically, but after that sentence from the boss I am emotionally stressed. I hope people who had decades of experience will pause and think that they had been on that point being new.

I like this thread....

Unresponsive + Full Code? No second thought...911 then will call MD for the order.

How does the plug-in essential works in the car? i haven't tried it plugging it in the lighter outlet.. i wonder...can't go outside now it's 10 pm here.

I drive 25-30 minutes one way to work... am shift: drinking coffee & eating my bagel or pbj while listening to my favorite FM station.. pm shift: wondering why that darn car is tailgaiting me since i might be so slow looking at the beautiful vineyards here in Napa, California.

Hello everyone, I'm still working on-call in a SNF, & they called me to work the next 3 days to take care of 23 residents that I haven't seen nor met before. And honestly, I'm scared. I'm a pretty brand new nurse and I need some advice to how I will handle this... Thanks in advance.

Thank you everyone.
