I don't know. I don't want to sit for 12hrs. Some do. I guess they don't want to lose their PTO and still earn it. It is not like we live abroad with good maternity leave.

I'll take this red herring with some hot sauce. We have the chain of command at my job. I doubt that the charge nurse will find it imperative to pass it on. Besides it was my subjective observation. There could be someone who may have believed the Dr...

I expanded on your answer, just like many people expand on other questions, answers, and threads. Some state a simple POV and some cut and paste an ENTIRE news article. I don't know what else to tell you.

He was pretty harsh. I think the patient was one of his frequents. Berate would be a better word. So yelling with a little restraint.

LOL. Yeah sure. Not going to answer that because it will be used as a red herring for why I didn't share my opinion, instead of the Dr's approach which was the point of my comment.

Just recently a Dr, to me, strongly insisted that a patient be vaccinated during a start of shift visit. I personally didn't like his tone. I don't think his tactic was productive, it may have been. Still, I doubt. A better approach would be explain ...

Yes YES YES!!

I know of a few from my unit. They give reasons like I'm taking zinc or the science isn't clear. Funny is that I doubt that they are crazed Republicans, because they are minorities from Hispanic to African Americans. A nurse wore a cumbersome p...

Some people question why people run out of the breakroom when they come in. Just saying.

Looks like she has to tell her kid to dump their friend. Wait?!?! So she doesn't allow this kid to come in, so that means their their kid is playing with/hanging our with this kid outside of her house. Perhaps she should start talking tough to t...

Oh they never go away. NEVER I say

I do. It will let the elephant in the room finally be noticed. Medical reasons or not, why isn't that person removed from their post or at least placed in a noncontact role. That person can infect someone, or easily get infected by many if t...

I think it is too harsh, but I guess the Dr wants to send a message. Plus why is this zealous and COVID mandates are not? Going into a mrsa or c-diff room without PPE and then taking care of non iso patients is bad. Some think it is OK to remove peop...

Why the Dr sends people home? They went into an iso room without PPE. Dr would demand they change their scrubs. I guess they could get new ones from ER, what I was told the Dr insist they go home to shower. Oh and then the Dr will go to top of chain ...

We do have an infection control doctor who is HARD with the PPE. Nurses been sent home to change clothes when caught without PPE. Right they should.

It is not just techs. I've seen drs go in iso rooms without donning PPE.

Right. And I did. What's yours?

I'm pretty compliant. I guess denial of services that crosses into complete isolation for individuals. Maybe denial of essential services. CNN reported that despite China's high vaccine output, people there are saying they are going too far. ...

Because this is a forum that is open to all sorts of questions, even the hypothetical type. I think that is a good enough answer to your question, don't you think?

Isn't that whataboutism? The last administration has been voted out. The but but but the last person did this or that is irrelevant at this point, don't you think?

My medsurg unit will have a 1/4 of the rooms for covid. They just put in those big air vents in the windows. It is only fair because other units were solely covid, now it is spread out.

Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden all wanted to get out. The how falls on one person.

Since this is a nursing site. I thought in nursing once you accept an assignment, how it is executed falls on the acceptor. "Well the last shift told me" Will be met with: "Why did you do it like that? And it is now your assignment" ...

We had one like that. Apparently he was a doctor in his home country and just didn't have the desire to be one in the US. Eventually my hospital got rid of all LPNs and I think he just retired.

I come to work everyday with the intention to be a GOAT. Within 2hrs I turn into an annoyed billy goat with an attitude. But I DO have the goal.
