got another one today. feels great!!! today i got a dehydrated 6 year old. she had some veins and i was able to use lmx with the pain ease.

yeah..we have one resident that wont even try!!!

just wanted to make a quick update. today i got a 5 week old a direct admit from the office. need all kinds of things from rsv swap, u/a, labs and of course a iv. i got the iv the first try. i am so excited still. just had to update

yesterday had a severely dehydrated kid got great blood return but blew it twice.....sigh

i feel like i have failed the child when i miss and cannot get it....i wish i had a site or something to resourse...peds can be so hard.. thank for the kind words

not doing very well lately and starting to doubt myselft with every one now. any suggestions, i was doing great but lately ive missed the last few that i have done. been in peds for 3 years and wondering if i should think about something else.....

hmm, interesting..i need to find someone that would be willing to take care of my horses and animals..... if i could do that then i would be one the road asap

thats what i am running in to , i cannot wait to do it but wondering if i will come out ahead.... cant wait to travel as soon as i figure out how

i am a very visual learner. i dont give alot of im's...the site was wonderful and refreshed my memory. thanks

thanks

anyone know a site on were to give injections. need a refresher for giving flu shots. back of arm or hip right??

i just accepted a peds, tcu ,icu position and they are training me for it. i have one year of medsurg, and orientatin to L&D. i may have chosen L&D but no positions ever came available. i just was pulled there everyonce in while and the less i went, the less comfortable i felt about working there. i guess it just depends on were you work and the opportunities that arise.

i hope i like it too...its a peds,tcu, icu position. i am very excited. the medsurg floor i was on was very overwhelming and i was handling it well but with my 12 hour shifts its seem i ALWAYS had the same team (confused, ones needed to be close to the nurses station.) i was offered this and i am excited. much different environment. i still have a few days left on medsurg d/t the fact that i had already picked them up so i am going to finish what i committed to. i already feel so relieved. i know i will be getting the PALS, ACLS and will be trained with the pre and post cardiac cath care as well....so excited

thanks so much...i need to start a bit of studying. i did med-surg almost a year now and have moved on to learn more. thanks so much. will be spending time here

i am new to it, but know just the basics. anyone have suggestion on good reading or somewere i can go to study up?
