I will have to look into this. I'm sinking in student loan debt. I have consolidated my government loans with a monthly payment of $165, and I have 2 private student loans together totaling $400. Yes, I pay $565/month in student loans. Really sucks that it's almost 1/4 of my monthly pay! I am sinking very fast, and barely able to make my payments. Is there help out there?

This particular resident in on hospice and dying of cancer, she is always in pain that she rates a "7". She has been recieving the PRN Roxanol pretty frequently for the past few weeks. She explains to me that she never gets pain relief. Vitals are stable. Some nurses I work with say I'm right, and some say I'm wrong. Huge debate at work right now.

The order reads: Roxanol 20mg/ml give q2hrs PRN et qevening. I gave a dose at 1930 which I signed off as PRN, my med aide was to give the evening dose at 9pm. She is refusing to give because it hasn't been 2 hours. I was under the impression that you can still give the scheduled dose and not have to wait 2 hours for the PRN dose (to treat them like 2 seperate orders)? Am I right or wrong??
