I recently had a severe fracture of my left wrist. It now has quite a bit of hardware present and has healed as well as it is going to ever be. I have been a RN for over 30 years and for the first time ever, I can't renew my BLS because I can't do compressions with my left hand on a hard plastic surface. This has now put me in a situation where I may never be able to work again if I can't recertify my BLS. Has anyone else had this problem and what did you do? I can use my wrist and hand enough for all daily activities including at work- I simply can't tolerate the recert. process.
