    In my ER everyone requests someone to come into the med room, and in real time watch us withdraw from the vial and waste. Thankfully, we go by the book. The one fellow who kept requesting after the...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    Emergent replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I have a feeling that someone with clout, associated with the hospital, is behind this. Someone who perhaps plays golf with the chief prosecutor? How convenient, to divert attention away from the...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    Emergent replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I disagree with these changes. This was a tragedy, a horrible mistake. Take away her nursing license but don't destroy her life. The family has said that the woman would have forgiven

    Should employers check titers periodically?

    Emergent posted a topic in General Nursing

    What with the measles outbreak, don't some people eventually lose immunity in spite of having been vaccinated? I had a titer done years ago upon hire. I had the measles while young. I also has...

    Older Doctor doesn't think nurses should be in charge

    Emergent replied to angeloublue22's topic in General Nursing

    I worked with an awful doctor who also was so disrespectful and condescending of nursing. She was in her 50s but had only been a doc 5 years tops. She had a veneer of being an extremely hip,...

    It must have been the straw that broke the camel's back, since it seems pretty every day patient stupidity. I think we've all had our moments of first world problems of the less intellectually...

    Emergent replied to Goldenrod's topic in General Nursing

    I was interested in hospice in school. I started out in LTC, and have worked MedSurg, Tele, ICU, and finally settled into ER for the latter part of my career. I agree, NICU is more
