I'd settle for step 1: Read the medication label

Its the fact that this occured should horrify any human being. As for flushing it down the loo. At that point what was she supposed to do, put the remains in a box and take it to her local hospital?

#iamcharlenemurphy Far easier to crucify us than consider RV isn't the patron saint of drug errors + negligent homicide #iamcharlenemurphy

Sorry I'm agnostic so don't do prayer. Charlene Murphy died a horrific death, gasping, trying to get air into her lungs. As she lay DYING on her own, fully aware that she was dying and there was no way of stopping that, All the 10+ other safety...

I have yet to see applicants voice the main reason for wanting to die as "being duty bound, or being a burden to their family"'. Working in hospice, family was one of the reasons why people fight for so long I read something a few years ago out ...

In the same vein. I had a patient who had terminal cancer, was dying just slowly. This person applied to the assisted dying scheme and was declined because their life expectancy was still over 6 months. I've had colleages who felt that the sch...

Well after almost four years I finally tested postive on a RAT. Had been feeling yuck on days off and thought I'd better do a RAT. Thought initially it was NAD however when I picked it up I say a very faint line. Merely sharing for a rant...

Its absolutely not hers to telll But so often in history we remeber the names of the people who killed others. but seem to forget their victims. Not saying RV set out to kill Charlene Murphy. Her actions assured that Charlene Murphy is no ...

If she owned her actions and said something along the lines of 'I made the most monumental screw up that took the life of a patient. This is what I have learned from it, this is what I believe nurses need to do to ensure someone else doesnt make the ...

Charlene Murphy would be a great speaker. Oh wait, she died at the hands of Mrs Vaughts incompetence

In your opinion. The people who need the healthcare, get it because all results are gone through, the people with abnormal results are scheduled for further testing or what ever follow up is indicated. Of course, if people want to ring up to fi...

We'll tell patients 'no news is good news'. In other words if they come back NAD we won't be calling you If they present make it very clear they will be seen in accordance to their triage level

Thanks So far not worse than a bad sinus infection. The opportunity to sleep is rather lovely 😂👍

Its not however when I look at the amount of brown stuff US nurses have to deal with it makes me feel very lucky

I've never orietated to a position and been on numbers from day one. Usually its been four-five days orientation. My orientation among other things involved learning the EMAR, giving meds, getting to know the patients, staff etc. Had I been ask...

You made an excellent point, the union hospital pays better than the non union hospital. I'm in NZ. We just had a massive win for pay equity, stop paying nurses less because its perceieved as a womans job, We get a decent hourly rate, aft...

Union busters are not friends of the average nursing team. Did you give these people a fair and impartial look at the facts?

I have sustained a lot of injuries over the years. Call it a combiniation of obesity which worsens the impact of falls , falls related to general clutzyness, Injuries sustained in the work place, the most recent a prolapsed disc and exposed nerve at ...

Important to know though the holidays are reversed depending on the location of the person You'd be cebrating midwinter solstice/yule. I'd be celebrating midsummer/litha I

I work in older persons mental health. I have a scenario of a patient who had had multiple admissions post substance misuse. Currently on the ward and very vocal about the situation they are in and how much they hate it despite the fact its ver...

Use more words please

This is mental who the hell thought that was a good idea

In New Zealand a person has to be a qualified radiographer. There is no way in hell a nurse would waltz into an Xray suite and start messing around. This sounds as dodgy as heck

Sounds as dodgy as all hell If you arent able to find new employment I would seriously keeping an encrypted password protected file of your patient encounters

Run, don't walk. This woman sounds like a demented lunatic As someone said the administrators talk is cheap.
