  1. Woman sues hospital after med records posted on FaceBook

    SionainnRN replied to nurseprnRN's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    What I want to know is who makes a fb group like she did? Who cares that much about random people with std's to make a page just to mock

  3. Woman sues hospital after med records posted on FaceBook

    SionainnRN replied to nurseprnRN's topic in HIPAA Challenges

  4. Woman sues hospital after med records posted on FaceBook

    SionainnRN replied to nurseprnRN's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Where did I say anything about suing the hospital. I was referring to the multiple people involved. Next time don't assume

  5. Woman sues hospital after med records posted on FaceBook

    SionainnRN replied to nurseprnRN's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    If this was me I'd sue everyone and their mother. I'm so appalled at this. It's not like something slipped or they misspoke, but that they purposefully posted her information with the idea of mocking...

  7. Should I beome a RN?

    SionainnRN replied to Navygurl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly if you have to ask a bunch of strangers if nursing is for you, it's not. We can't tell you what to do with your life, only you know that. But if you're looking for slow pace, hospital nursing...

  8. Is there something wrong with me?

    SionainnRN replied to jlw5's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thank you for your advice! I just want to say, not that I'm justifying anything, but it's been two years since I was fired and had a job inbetween where I had no issues. My new job I'm obviously...

  9. Is there something wrong with me?

    SionainnRN replied to jlw5's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is an amazing coincidence because I'm having the same problem. I've been a nurse for 4.5 years, been fired 2 for things I've said. I just moved and started in a new state and this am after my...

  10. How many people recognize this abbreviation?

    SionainnRN replied to psu_213's topic in General Nursing

    Hmm I'm in the ER and I've never seen that abbreviation. Maybe it has to do with location, I'm in SoCal. Sent from my iPhone using

    SionainnRN replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  12. Are you good at charting in "real time?"

    SionainnRN replied to Ativan's topic in General Nursing

    I'm in the ER so I have to chart in real time because I never know when assignments are going to be switched or when I go on break, etc. I've found that using the computers in the room help,...

  13. Mistakes Are Inevitable: No One Is Perfect.

    SionainnRN replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    My first, and hopefully only, med error was in the ED. Pt had continuos nausea despite zofran so doc told me to give phenergan as he was going into another room. So I pull the med, tell the pt what...

  15. Stupid Nurse Tricks (Or How To Look Incredibly Stupid)

    SionainnRN replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    Hand irrigate a foley clogged with blood clots and end up spraying yourself and the room with blood. End up looking like Carrie after the prom and having to go take a shower in the middle if your...

  17. Mistakes to avoid in clinicals..

    SionainnRN replied to clarinets's topic in General Students

    Oh and another one: do NOT post anything at all about clinicals on facebook! It's best to learn this lesson now. Don't post pictures, don't mention floors, don't say a darn word about anything on FB....

  18. Mistakes to avoid in clinicals..

    SionainnRN replied to clarinets's topic in General Students

    Not wanting to work. You should be eager and happy to do anything and everything. Doesn't matter that you've given one bed bath, give another. Ask questions. Listen to what the nurses say and do, but...

  19. ED tranfer.. No verbal report required

    SionainnRN replied to HeartRN13's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    The hospital I just started at doesn't do verbal report. There's a floor report note that is edited by the primary nurse with the pertinent info as soon as the pt is up for admit. It can be updated as...

    SionainnRN replied to HikingEDRN's topic in Emergency

    Refusing to let me do your assessment isn't going to make you any friends, I'm just trying to do my job. When you run out of norco drinking alcohol for your pancreatitis isn't going to help the pain....
