  1. He didn't die after you did CPR. CPR is only done on dead people. He was a child and he was dead for at least a few minutes before you arrived. CPR works less than 10 percent of the time when not in a hospital setting. Being there was a delay in starting iy would have been nearly unbelievable if he recovered. You did the right thing
  2. ((Hugs)) this must be super duper tough to watch. I think the best thing is sitting tight. The withdrawal will be painful but she won't die. Alcohol withdrawal is another beast of its own.
  3. This is tough. Yes you did the wrong thing but you didn't come hear to hear that. The first step is admitting you were wrong, you did just that. Now it's time to say, you are human, you erred, this one error is not going to ruin your life. Rhere are many other jobs out there. And people do understand that a bad stressful shift can cause you to do things you wouldn't ((Hugs))
  4. That is crazy! 8 pts is too many even for the most experienced nurses. Was innaoropriate to give you that assignment. Make sure to submit something in writing, you want it documented how you are being put in dangerous situations.
  5. Update. I decided to go with the IV when I get it I will try to update
  6. Well said. this experience has left a bad taste in my mouth. I do not think I will accept my position as I don't know if the rest of the program is run in such a haphazard way as well. I am feeling a bit of "we have you at our mercy so be quiet until we tell you anything"
  7. ya I got that. I just thought I'd share that cuz it's a really good tidbit to know
  8. When benadryl is pushed quickly it can cause a terrible episode of chest pain in some patients and a feeling of overwhelming fear being allergic to reglan is no fun! Zofran is not always enough to kick fentanyl nausea
  9. With the IV being so new it's hard to find lots of reviews. I like that it is lighter than some other cardiology scopes i wish there was a store near me that stocks the cardiology scopes and allows for checking em out.
  10. The subject really says it all. There are pros and cons of each. I am starting nursing school and I am getting a stethoscope as a gift which have you tried? What is your experience. I want something that is going to take me through my schooling (goal is DNP) and career as well as be versatile enough for peds and adults. Thanks
  11. if you were told it was a 6 month orientation etc... They are the ones breaking the contract

    Tell them, you requested one week off 7months in advance. They have no reason to deny your hard earned PTO. Especially becuse if they don't give it to you, when are you supposed to take it? tell them that you will not be able to come in that week. And if they don't give it as PTO than you will be finding a new place to work. If if you cannot quit becuse there are not better job opportunities than I would tell them that you are calling in.

  15. I was switched from morphine to diluadid as the morphine wasn't enough to knock out the pain. The dikaudid still left me in pain but I was able to sleep for at least 20-30 min after each dose. I had the nurses push it super slowly because it got very nauseous and sick when it was pushed quickly. I didn't get any high feelings and did not get any addiction but when I was switched to tramadol (preventing bowel perforation with megacolon) I had terrible cold sweats and couldn't stop shaking. tip: reduce dosage slowly when possible. Give Ativan a few hours after last dose of diluadid
