    jennyanydot posted a topic in General Nursing

    Is it legal for a hospital to tell RNs after they have completed their shift that they cannot go home but must stay at the hospital but NOT get paid. Sounds like a hostage situation. How can this be...

    GOMER42Re: Certified Medication Technician It takes a lot to remember all the information about meds. I think CMA's would be useful if they had more extensive schooling. A lot of medical...

    There are a few bad apples in every bunch. If we measured the whole bunch by them, then we would be throwing out a lot of good produce.:) Thanks Bradley RN!! You are so right and I have had such...

    Post Script to my recent post. I was in severe pain and left that way in the PACU for over an hour That was 'severe' pain, Level 10 and recorded as Level 10. I think what bothers me the most is me...

    jennyanydot replied to NicInNC's topic in General Nursing

    Next time you find yourself in an emergent situation, you're in severe pain or trauma... I was in severe pain and left that way in the PACU for over an hour; then another 3 hours at Level 5/6. Many a...

    jennyanydot replied to cmatobe's topic in General Nursing

    cmatobe Commenting only about you as a CMA, I think you will do an excellent job. You sound like you have a great attitude along with your sincere desire to be of assistance to the nurses. I hope you...

  11. Certified Medication Technician

    jennyanydot replied to NicInNC's topic in General Nursing

    Medication is a hugh responsibility. I need to know a lot more about this issue before I can comment on it again. However, I did come across the word 'assessing' which I have a LOT of questions about....

  12. Blow out at the desk, who was at fault? both share blame I think?

    jennyanydot replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    definitely, you did the correct thing (in my opinion). hard to believe someone would go to such lengths to justify their actions for such an obvious mis-step. six to nine months is not a lot of...

  13. Certified Medication Technician

    jennyanydot replied to NicInNC's topic in General Nursing

    Someone like you would be great but I think it is the 'others' you mentioned that would make it dangerous. They need to come up with a very through test that would 'weed' the unqualified out. Good...

  14. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    jennyanydot replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Humanity is pretty revolting. I will still be a great nurse. I am intelligent, and one of the top students in my class. That is the scariest statement I have read thus far and I have read them all. My...

  15. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    jennyanydot replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Listen to Clementina's last bit of advise!!! I was totally vulnerability for a total of 8 hours in surgery and PACU and wound up feeling betrayed and abandoned. Never had a bad experience before and...

  16. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    jennyanydot replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I think it is probably true that in the past people went into nursing simply because they had a desire to help people. It was different then. Most men were the bread winners and if a woman wanted a...

  17. Certified Medication Technician

    jennyanydot replied to NicInNC's topic in General Nursing

    Okay, I admit I'm lost. Do I understand it correctly that people who are not RNs or LPNs will be reading doctor's med orders and administering these meds to patients? Or do you have to have your RN or...

    jennyanydot replied to amyliz976's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    As a former patient I applaud and thank you! Administration had better wake up and will only do so when more nurses take a ground of issues such as this. Sounds like you need to ALWAYS do paperwork...

  20. Recovery Room Horror!

    jennyanydot replied to z's playa's topic in Operating Room

    I certainly appreciate your input. If I only listened to the ortho doc I would think what happened should be something I just 'click my heel' and wish it away. At work today I called the billing...
