"I said I would see you on the flip side but I did not mean the outer limits"

That was Atlanta they found you a new heart... your going to live another 20 yrs.....Yes.

"under your tongue, no teeth, wrap you lips on it", (subconsciously I'm thinking I got to pea, I need to catch that blood before air gets in line & have Secretary send for next unit, I need to do that dressing change next door , I need to order potassium per protocol since bun & crea. were good & I need to make night shift assignments). 98.6 THANK YOU.

straight away... means asap, do not go pea, do not take that call do it immediately...Stat, you know yesterday..

5 Things I know for sure when it comes to Nursing. 1.Book knowledge is one thing & using it in the real world is another. 2. Have your ducks in a row when you call the doctor... you never know if it will be primarily or on call doc but either way know dx & hx .......3. Never call a doctor & walk away, they won't appreciate a 2nd page be a use u got loss. 4. We are not the Flintstones , you go home when you finish you shift work not when the 7:15 whistle blows, we are working with people,not cars or food ect.5. If you just open your heart & mind when caring for patients beautiful things happen that last a lifetime.....You got to Love Nursing to be a great Nurse.......

What? No Outpatients , u mean I can spend the last hrs & half on my I patients closing charts & giving them care so I can start report on time & not stay late...... God is Good & knows I am too tired today.....

Yes... no tardiness the last 30 days, Best to arrive on time than stay late........

My user name says that I am large & in Charge, Autonomus, team player, your Advocate , your Nurse....

out that the CA could not get vital signs, that my patient took a turn for the worse.....

This lady is right. 100% discrimination & perferental treatment.. The Secrtaarty should not be allowed to assign. The clinical Supv. should & she seem just as twisted. Keep good records of dates & names & fo tl her manager & go up chain of command. They are too wrong.

I feel this nurse... Yes I feel the same as she after nursing just over 28 yrs...

CNA on the other end stating she cannot get vital signs on the patient because they took a turn for the worse...

they have to leave now because no doctor has come & they got something to take care of now. Bring my AMA papers Now..it's shift change.

Thank You, I love your post......Keeping it Real.

I have done 20 yrs floor but enjoy outpatient better han bedside @ this point. U really called floor nursing & everything connected to it out. Thank You. It It takes sheer God given strength & lots of prayers throughout the day. I am not bitter but needed a break & anywork out patient, be it Cemo. Pre-op or post ou or surgicare any outpt clinic (not E.C. ) to rejuvenate you.
