    Misty1 replied to kcalohagirl's topic in General Nursing

    I share your concern. Had one resident order 15 cc's of Torodol then argue with me when I told him that was wrong. Gotta say I wasn't as nice as you. I've seen many scarey things just too tired to...

  12. L&D nurses and ACLS training

    Misty1 replied to jzprple's topic in Travel

    ACLS is good to have no matter what your specialty in the hospital. I've never had PALS a requirement even though it was required for staff nurses at my last assignment. I will not volunteer to take...

  13. L&D nurses and ACLS training

    Misty1 replied to jzprple's topic in Travel

    It is required for my job (althought I'm not an L&D nurse). I take it on my own and my agency pays for it. Its about 200 dollars. I don't have it handy but I can give you a site that has a list...

    Misty1 replied to patccrn's topic in MICU, SICU

    I like eICU. Its another set of eyes.....always helpful. Just try not to forget to tell your pt about eICU and what they do. I've seen them beep in and start talking to the patient and the patient...
