Cardiac. Then go meet some flight nurses. Ask their advice on a career path. I'd take them out for drinks as a thank you (we have some gorgeous flight nurses! All ex-military)

Learn the rules. Abide by them. I agree it would be worth a meeting with your UM or AUM. Plead your case.

Absolutely. Tell only those that need to know. Let it go. We had a nurse allegedly give a med to a pt and it "didn't scan." Well duh, it wasn't ordered and wasn't in the computer! I'm sure she took it for her own use. She put the opened wrapper BACK in the accudose! I was sure she was history... nope... still works there, but did transfer.

Recently one of my Leukemic pts decided to stop treatment. His family was ok with this decision, as was his health team. He could have gone to hospice. His wife asked if he could stay on our unit, as he was expected to live only a few days. She said "Y'all have shared his life, now we share his death." His family was happy he (and they) were with familiar faces, rather than strangers. He had been in treatment for many years. It's nice to be appreciated.
