Sedation Vacation

ESME12 I totally didn't think about it !! I've actually been an AN member but can't remeber my other login email password it's been so long. I use the name for something else online . I work w vented pts at the hospital.

My honest concern is that someone is on the floor not clear of mind. I don't know how or if altered by meds prescribed etc but I feel it needs attention. I don't even know her last name. I'm meeting w my direct manager Monday to let her know something is weird. Whether she needs a neuro evaluation or med alterations etc. She could be on something for pain prescribed and I have no idea. What I saw w diverting was very clear to the point where if anyone listened to me they easily could've caught her in the act. Also EVERYONE at this establishment has mentioned it to me and more than 4 people today commented on how she's "on something "today. I know this is a sticking situation and I wasn't sure if I could even ask here but I feel so lost. I wants what's best for the patients myself and herself. Even if she just needs a neuro evaluation I want them to help her

Ugh. I don't know what to do. I called the board but got a machine and don't want to leave a message before I know if it can be kept anonymous. She knows I saw her. She turned around and saw me looking ri g t at her. I'm so befuddled. I don't know what she's taking.. Could be psych meds but I feel like she's not clear to be working

I recently changed jobs to a ft position at an outpatient center while still keeping my foot in the hospital per diem. I have never worked out of the hospital so maybe that's why I'm so confused. At the outpatient center I STRONGLY believe a nurse is under the influence of something and I also saw her divert meds that should've been wasted. I reported it to management that was present when I first noticed. Today she clearly was not functioning well pin point pupils and unable to explain what was going on. I mentioned it again and I was told "were aware.. there's nothing we can . It's not like she can re ally hurt a patient here". I don't know what else to do. I don't feel safe working beside her. I don't like her near patients but feel stuck! Any advice ? Thanks
