Seen your other post about job but it would not let me comment. I know interim healthcare hires lpns with iv certification. My friend works there and likes it. Pay it good an set your own hours.
Thanks I guess the drs comments made me feel like this guy would lose his leg because I removed the dressing. The last thing I would want to do is cause my pt harm
Thanks for your response. I had a horrible night beating myself up over this and thinking how horrible I feel if I impeded this PTs wound healing. It's very hard when someone makes you feel two inches tall. I prayed all night for my patients speedy recover which hopefully wasn't harmed by my stupidity.
I had my first mistake as a nurse recently. I misread the doctor order and removed a wound bandage the wound doctor did not want removed! Which was plainly written in chart. I noticed my error within two hours and fessed up. The doctor was upset (understandably) although my feelings were hurt by some comments. Although I've tried to look at the bright side and think that at least this doctor cares about his patient. I fixed the problem to the best of my ability (im a hh nurse and even went and bought non stick bandages i needed). I notified my boss and I fixed the dressing the best I could. My patient is safe. I apologized to patient and family. But why do I still feel so crappy?
