  1. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    hayest replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I'm happy to see people are curious to know, but I will throw another wrench into the conversation. I wouldn't want to go to a female OBGYN. Not going to a female OBGYN probably stems from a female...

  2. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    hayest replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I agree, if I was the woman in labor, I would also get upset. I recently had surgery and a month ahead of time I called the hospital with a few requests. My requests were NO Male Nurses, No...

  3. Medical Assistants in the office

    hayest replied to SHELLYBELLYRN's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    In my opinion, Medical Assistants should NOT replace nurses in a Physician's Office. Our office has gone through 11 medical assistants in 3 1/2 years. The MD's seem to choose the wrong people for...

  4. Nurses with ear piercings

    hayest replied to hshuang's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    If I was an employer of a health care facility, whether it be a hospital, physician's office, nursing home, I would not hire someone with tattoos or piercings. I've seen many ads where employers...

  5. Biopsy Forceps. Who handles it? PLEASE HELP

    hayest replied to nursing90504's topic in Gastroenterology

    That is scary. I would not want someone who did not have an MD behind their name to take the biopsy. In fact, I'm a few years behind in having my colonoscopy done. I am not refusing it, I just...

  6. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest posted a topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Would like to know two things: Is this a HIPAA Violation and Can this be removed from an EMR/Patient Portal? Patient and Doctor had a personal email/conversation over the weekend. More to the...

  7. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest replied to hayest's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I know they are working OT because the doctor complains to me about them working overtime. There were no instructions on the email that was forwarded for the medical assistant to do anything. I...

  8. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest replied to hayest's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Replying to the CNA who sees the issue as the patient nit-picking. Portals are for medical information that pertains to that patient that could help with future treatments. Not for conversations...

  9. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest replied to hayest's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Great reply! Thank you. Loved your answer. The lpn/medical assistant just didn't want to think. Doesn't think. Unfortunately, the office doesn't know how to hire the right people for their...

  10. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest replied to hayest's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Understandable and this situation was with a concierge physician. Patient is paying for the personal attention

  11. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest replied to hayest's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    This is a concierge doctor's practice. Patient only wants to deal with their concierge doctor and no one else in the practice in regards to their medical care. For the price a patient pays to be...

  12. Is this a HIPAA Violation - Invasion of Patient's Privacy?

    hayest replied to hayest's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    But it was a personal conversation/email. Basically the MD was frustrated with the pharmacy and patient was agreeing with the frustration, as they are just as frustrated. Also, if there was...

  13. No Scrubs Allowed.. opinions??

    hayest replied to Nurse4892's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Even though I mentioned that I would prefer to see khaki/navy/black pants and a polo shirt for the physician offices and/or assisted living/nursing home settings. I do agree about color distinction...

  14. No Scrubs Allowed.. opinions??

    hayest replied to Nurse4892's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    As a patient and as a family member who had parents in nursing homes/assisted living faclities, I would rather see the staff in khaki/navy/black docker style pants and a polo shirt instead of the...

  15. Attn Clinic/Doctors office nurses!

    hayest replied to Elleveein's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    Congratulations! I'm glad you corrected the provider and it's nice to read that your MA's do not misrepresent themselves. In our area, they all misrepresent themselves and the doctors go along...

  16. Attn Clinic/Doctors office nurses!

    hayest replied to Elleveein's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    flip flops and scrubs .. OMG! Very unprofessional. When MA's wear scrubs, the practice is announcing they have nurses working for them. Patients associate scrubs with nurses. A different dress...

  17. (IN)Appropriate Dress

    hayest replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

    I believe the medical profession should wear some sort of uniform. Although, I'm not thrilled with the scrubs that are seen these days. I've seen too many medical assistants were scrubs that look...

  18. PATIENTS BECOMING MORE ABUSIVE?? anyone agree?

    hayest replied to nurseredd's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    i have something similar. I have a concierge doctor w/30 minute appointments or longer. We have the portal too, but I have yet to find the benefit in the portal. I won't send a message through the...

  19. So what is a Hipaa violation, anyway?

    hayest replied to lulain's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I understand the ease of having records available for MDs and to send the info vial email, but I dont like the fact that information just appears in regards to different doctors notes. I'm all for...

  20. So what is a Hipaa violation, anyway?

    hayest replied to lulain's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Two both comments from RoseQueen and Esme12 - Thank you. Thank you for commenting. You both made a comment if i was the patient. Answer - Yes I was. I started losing trust with the 5 year...

  21. So what is a Hipaa violation, anyway?

    hayest replied to lulain's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I would like to know if a medical assistant approached a patient in exam room and asked the patient if there is an issue between them. The medical assistant felt as if the patient was upset with her....

  22. PATIENTS BECOMING MORE ABUSIVE?? anyone agree?

    hayest replied to nurseredd's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree with what is being said, but have you ever thought that patients are finally speaking up? Being their own advocate? There are a variety of articles and other sources telling the patients to...
