    Board Investigation

    Jory replied to Madeinthe1980s's topic in General Nursing

    They will not cover you. The only cover from the day the policy is implemented forward; claims are not retroactive. I have never had a complaint, but twice have had the threat of one...one I...

    Am I jeopardizing my license, or am I overthinking?

    Jory replied to NurseyNurseNursey's topic in General Nursing

    Nope...all you are doing is documenting. Employment records will show you work in quality and not bedside and never examined the patient. Yes, you are over-thinking it

    End of life policy hospice

    Jory replied to NurseLsat's topic in General Nursing

    A feeding tube defeats the purpose of hospice and is an artificial sustainment of life unless, the patient had a medical reason, can ask for it, etc. Our hunger naturally goes away as we move through...

    Patient abandonment question

    Jory replied to Jackson1322's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry if this is harsh, but you felt your patients was safer with LESS staff than with you there? How did that benefit the patient? If they report it to the state, you could be in

    Managing a Department/No Experience in Area

    Jory posted a topic in General Nursing

    Looking for insight for one of my co-workers. One of my colleagues' husband has just got a job transfer to a region that is not midwife friendly, so she's job searching in the new city. There are...

    Testing Window of FNP Exam

    Jory posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am not an FNP, but just wanted to ask this out of curiosity. When you graduate from FNP school, is there a time limit where you can take the exam? Like 1 year, 2 years, 3 years? Or is there no end...

    Huge Zoom Mistake....Nurse Instructors Caught!

    Jory replied to Pre.Nurse_tobe's topic in General Nursing

    This shouldn't even be up for debate. The dean needs to know about it because the professors have made it clear that they have a problem with minority students. I'm sorry, that is racist and there is...

    How to chart to protect license

    Jory replied to RN_atlast's topic in General Nursing

    You don't need a legal expert, all you need is to go to your BON website and see what reasons the BON are sanctioning licenses. In the example you gave, you don't need to go into that much detail b/c...

    Contested a Doctor's Order Psych ?

    Jory replied to mhadvrn34's topic in General Nursing

    As a midwife, hysterectomies are rarely "recommended" for endometriosis anymore. In fact, it's a lazy providers way of dismissing the patient. A hysterectomy doesn't necessarily solve the problem as...

    What's your opinion on nurses dating doctors?

    Jory replied to DesiDani's topic in General Nursing

    It's a dumb move. Yes, it's fun while it lasts, but once things go south you have to still work with that person. Let's say you are the one that got dumped? How would you feel if you had to show...

    OMG, I cannot believe what I did. What I should do now!

    Jory replied to SoNan's topic in General Nursing

    I have never measured a PICC line ever removal when I was a floor nurse. Never. That is why there is a

    Case Study: An OB Catastrophe

    We have had our differences but you did a great job with this presentation. Well

    Case Study: An OB Catastrophe

    Jory replied to Corey Narry's topic in Critical Care

    Also....manual removal of the placenta is a huge risk factor for AFE. That's why you don't rush the process unless it's truly

    Case Study: An OB Catastrophe

    Jory replied to Corey Narry's topic in Critical Care

    I have a massive question...why was the placenta manually removed at all? That is very important because the overwhelming majority of PPHs are preventable and caused my mismanagement of third stage...

    Vaccine Excursion

    Jory replied to Eeks's topic in General Nursing

    When you say, "You didn't package them properly", HOW did you transport them. Rule #1 in transporting medication is seeing if the medication requires refrigeration. If you took them out of...

    What are they teaching?

    Jory replied to egglady's topic in General Nursing

    You don't get that choice as a nurse and the law doesn't require you to act as a police investigator. The only requirement for mandated reporting is "reasonable suspicion". The last time this...

    Compact license question

    Jory replied to raindrop's topic in Travel

    Again...READ YOUR LICENSE. I don't think the OP said anything about doing anything dishonest such as listing a fake address. So let's not add elements to the story that don't exist. This isn't...

    Compact license question

    Jory replied to raindrop's topic in Travel

    It's not dangerous advice considering it's written on the license you receive, what type of license you have. Unless you have personally went to every Board of Nursing in every state that is in the...

    What are they teaching?

    Jory replied to egglady's topic in General Nursing

    My major beef right now with new graduates is this "trend" not to chart anything. They will say, "Oh, we are supposed to 'chart by exception' " but if you ASK them EXACTLY what that means? You get...

    Compact license question

    Jory replied to raindrop's topic in Travel

    It depends on what kind of license you have. Compact licensure states usually have it indicated on the license if it is single state or multi-state. I think where you live is irrelevant and that is...

    Multiple vaccine errors.

    Jory replied to lrkelso95's topic in General Nursing

    If you have made three errors in one year, you are not practicing the five rights of medication. Not trying to be cruel, but if the first incident and the second didn't change your practices, don't...

    Old patients unsuccessfully clinging to independent living

    Jory replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    If you have ever investigated the cost of assisted living, that is why they choose to live as they do. State-run assisted living places are not optimum conditions either. I don't think it is fair to...

    Should I mention this in an interview?

    Jory replied to AnaBanana.RN's topic in General Nursing

    Nope. Don't mention it. It's not relevant to the position to where you are applying. I also, as a new grad, thought that ambitions would be "impressive" when I started interviewing. Trust me, they...

    PMHNP Walden

    Jory replied to Alix's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    That's because the school has to make a request. If they have no students from that state, then there is no reason for them to make the effort for

    Preventing patients from leaving AMA, legally covered?

    Jory replied to JBMmom's topic in General Nursing

    Nobody needs a discharge order to leave AMA. If the patient wants to leave, they can leave. I would call risk management if I were the OP and get clarification immediately on the legal process in...
