Unchart it, and write a comment saying why. It sounds like you didn't have the pt on that day and you accidentally charted, right?

Could I please have a copy too? Thanks in advance!!

Rock on, TheCommuter! LOL, I was under the (mistaken, apparently) impression that nurses tend to stick in a niche once there. Like once an L&D nurse, always an L&D nurse, but I see what you're saying.

How about "could of"? Drives me nuts.

That is an interesting assignment. Is the school affiliated with the site? Anyway, specializing is generally done once you graduate, so no additional expenses. I'm also not quite sure what you mean by "general RN".

I'm sure people do. But the vast majority of us suffered through months of unemployment. So, lovely for you, but certainly not the norm.

Another vote for home health!

I also realized that your job is cushy. Where is it haha?

What was the order?

FWIW, I would encourage you to go to the interview. You never know how you will feel afterwards. It may be the best interview you ever had, or you might feel the grass is greener where you are.

I would go up higher in the chain of command as well as give a dated, signed copy to HR. Leave a message on her phone and email her a copy with explanation that it's not ideal, but it's the best you can do. I am a newbie to health care, so take thi...

Thanks! I'll avoid it in the future.

Could you please share why the first one is bad if you've scrubbed the port?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the drugs are incompatible, the shouldn't be run in the same line, no? And I would use the site closest to the pt to Y-site it in

I think it's Orville (sp?) that has microwaveable kettle corn. It's sweet and salty and oh so yummy lol. I also like LaraBars. A bit pricey, and definitely high calorie, but natural ingredients etc.

I know someone who "closed" her charts at 1730 on her stable MS pts. But it was paper charting.

I'm so sorry that you are going through this. Assuming the kids will be safe with him, could he at least watch them while you're working

The fact that you don't even realize that this is not okay is mind - blowing to me. Did you really expect people to applaud actions that show a lack of integrity?

PT and you can pick up shifts PRN

I feel sorry for Heidi, and thoroughly disgusted by Dick. The fact that he is carrying out his shenanigans in a unit in which wife is known and that she frequents, shows that he has a complete disregard for her feelings. Ridiculous.

As a new nurse myself, I understand. But think how far you have come since your first day. I always do my own assessments. I'll have the student doing his/her own along side me, and we can talk about what we each assessed. Anything else that they do...

Try Allegra.

Always flush IVs/G-tubes during your initial assessment.

Sorry OP, I roll the tubing around the earpiece and stuff it in my pocket
