I think it is a regional thing. I'm from the south (GA) I say CENTimeters. In FL all the nurses I work with are Northerners and they say SONTimeters. I had never heard it pronounced that way untill I started working in FL.

OH YES!!! Nurse Guy FL, try being an LPN in a LTC facility!!! Paramedics REALLY love to rag on us!!!! Although I have dealt with some really great ones.....but pretty rare!

God Bless that Man!

May I ask are you an LPN, RN or CNA? Not that means anything, just curious.
-
SHOOT EM!.........hee hee

http://www.medicare.gov , is a great site, not only does it explain medicare and medicaid benefits, but you can go in to the section that says "Nursing Home compare" you can look up nursing homes in your area and it gives you info on each facility including latest state inspection results and each individual tag and plan of correction etc..

Wow very cool!! Please provide more info!:)
-
Thats the whole reason I have been stuck being an LPN for 15 years!! I keep saying one day I will go back and get my RN...... But I hate studying more than being dragged behind a car over a mile of broken glass and having alcohol and salt poured over my wounds!!!

If I had a dollar for every time I said "I could do my job so much better if family members would stay out of my way" , I would retire right now!!

WOOOOWW!! Tulip ya done good!!!! Heck of a lot better than I would have. Sometimes my temper gets the best of me. Only advise I would give, is I hope you documented all that woman's inappropriate behavior to cover your tail and then report to your supervisor what you said to cover yourself....some more!! Ha Ha. I can't tell you how many times I went to my supervisor to explain to them what actions I did in response to a pt and/or family member just in case they reported me HA!
-
Yeah!!! I can't tell you how many RN's I have trained!!! ALSO.... If I take a telephone order I carry it out to the fullest possible extent!
-
Wow That to me, is Unreal!! I have worked in Ca, Ga, & Fl as an LPN, took T.O. and V.O. carried them out without any problem what so ever! Been doing it for 15 years now and never had a problem!! Now that goes under the thread "nursing petpeeves" why can't an LPN take and carry out a telephone order????
