    Personally, I think the over/under for this one is

    Dying, unresponsive patient and assessing pain

    Jensmom7 replied to tsm007's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Yes, you should talk to someone, but it should be the Hospice Case Manager (the Nurse) if you are unsure what you should do. If necessary, the Hospice Nurse can make a visit and assess the patient's...

    Dying, unresponsive patient and assessing pain

    Jensmom7 replied to tsm007's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Ok, Hospice Nurse here. You did it right, and so did the Nurse ahead of you. She gave the med based on non-verbal cues (the moaning). So it was still being given as a prn, he just needed it every 2...

    That's because he was basically ignored after susie hijacked his thread, so he took all his marbles and went

    Jensmom7 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Lol even nursingaround bailed on this one. It really needs to just be retired-it makes no sense, and has been chasing its tail like a hyperactive

    fetching the doctor's tea

    Jensmom7 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    1. No. Diet colas aren't good for you. 2. Yes, but only herb teas. The good leaded stuff is for attendings

    Made mistake at work

    Jensmom7 replied to asmith79's topic in Nursing Career

    There's a lot of emotion in your post, but very little information. Being written up AND possibly facing more disciplinary action suggests something fairly serious, unless your manager didn't actually...

    If you're at the Nurse's station talking sports, that's where you'll probably find me, too

    Frugality thead:work less, spend less

    Jensmom7 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    We have 3 credit cards, but rotate them, only using one at a time. One of the cards has a really good points program, so when we're using that one, I'll put everything on the card, pull the money out...

    Thank you, Joy Behar!

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in Nursing Humor

    I don't know, the other day I made a rather flippant comment that Raven may just have resting b**** face, and after watching that clip, I think that is the case. She was sitting quietly, I didn't see...

    Mandatory flu vaccines

    Jensmom7 replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    Yep, now I just have to wait for the slow wheels to turn until they actually purchase it

    An open letter to the #NursesUnite movement

    Jensmom7 replied to disillusionedrn's topic in General Nursing

    I think Raven's problem is that she has a natural resting b**** face. She had the same look when she was 4 and doing the Cosby

    Classmates stress me out ? How do I deal?

    Jensmom7 replied to Student2017555's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    And this is one reason I kept space between myself and my classmates. Most of them gave me the flux, and a few were truly unpleasant to be around. I knew them in class and clinicals, but didn't...

    What time do you clock in?

    Jensmom7 replied to justmehappy's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    You do know that IT can see exactly who accesses charts and what time they are accessed, right? If your facility has a "no chart access until you're clocked in" policy, it would probably be a good...

    Mandatory flu vaccines

    Jensmom7 replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    I tried to get it (my very first-I now work for a mandatory shot or wear a mask for the season employer) but when I told the nurse that I do have a mild egg allergy, and then mentioned my anaphylactic...

    Opinions please!

    Jensmom7 replied to mmw11's topic in General Nursing

    You know you gave the med and the resident is able to confirm that you did. That's all well and good, you said you normally check the MAR before you leave, but had overlooked it. You overlooked it for...

    The Stethoscope

    The Stethoscope

    Jensmom7 replied to Flyboy17's topic in General Nursing

    I've seen others say that we should consider the source. Yes, we should. Don't forget that these women are paid to be rude, confrontational and argumentative. It's how they get ratings and viewers....

    Thoughts on the "doctor's stethoscope"

    Jensmom7 replied to kidzcare's topic in School

    I have a basic dual head stethoscope. I don't need one with all the bells and whistles anymore, because I'm Hospice. But it's still better than the Play Skool one my agency tried to pawn off on me...

    Thank you, Joy Behar!

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in Nursing Humor

    She opened her mouth before putting her brain into gear, and that was what fell out. This show thrives on snark and rude. What they didn't count on was the voice of 3 million RNs being raised in...

    Lying On A Job Application

    Jensmom7 replied to Mrs.in2015's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Your classmate is playing with fire. If someone finds out she lied, she could be fired. However, my question is, why are you so worried about her? She followed an action, the consequences will be...

    Ah, I was looking for the specific video, and there doesn't seem to be one.
