nursedreamjob

ok well i am going to take full responsibility for this .....i have been an LVN for three months now at an Assisted Living and i did my first med error yesterday. The resident went out for an appt, i was not on the shift when she left for her appt. She came back and i was passing out medication so i gave her all her daily meds that were on the MAR because shes a diabetic and was trying to get her meds in that 1 hour window..........20 minutes later after she was eating she claimed she forgot to tell me that she was not supposed to have taken the glucophage and asked if i have given it to her.....of course i did. So i opened up her Dr. Consultation report and it said to not give glucophage for 2 days ......she had just gotten back from a pelvic ct scan and they injected her with contrast....i checked in today and shes ok but im still afraid something will happen to her and i dont know how to live with that. I told on myself ,and that it was a total procedural error i should have asked her if the doctor ordered anything new. the ADON said its fine. I am having terrible anxiety.......i dont know if nursing is for me anymore.

congrats you passed!!!!!

congratulations!!!!!

i did the good pop up before maintenance and its still a good pop up.

Yes you still have to pay 150 for ur license even if ur an rn you renew it every 2 years which is 150

its not a trick to make you pass ............ its a trick to FIND OUT if you passed.....it has been proven
