   Serves you right for reporting it. Snitches get stitches, even if you snitch on yourself. The doc changed the order. No harm no foul.

5. First code experience

   grizun replied to emmjayy's topic in General Students

   I've always been able to separate my emotions from the work. Often, after the fact, when the patient doesn't make it and I'm speaking with the family I'll feel bad for them, I empathize with their pain, but I've just seen so many die in front of me t...

6. Paramedic and nurse?

   grizun replied to Sirena_615's topic in Emergency

8. Why are you listening to the heart?

   grizun replied to grizun's topic in Emergency

   In the ED I work at now is a nurse, with whom I also worked at in the ED where I was told to stop listening to heart sounds. This nurse doesn't even own a stethoscope. I am not exaggerating. I'm not sure how one assesses the effectiveness of breathin...

   grizun replied to cpr,sucka's topic in CCU

13. Cleveland Clinic VS University Hospital

    grizun replied to A.Ramos's topic in Ohio

    Perhaps you've heard the expression "the fish rots from the head?" Toby has created a culture where nurses have no say and are expendable. Why do CCF nurses wear all white? Because Toby says that's what the uniforms will be in spite of every Clinic n...

15. Cleveland Clinic VS University Hospital

    grizun replied to A.Ramos's topic in Ohio

    Dont have people coming from all over the country? Hmmm. You sure about that? There is more celebrity traffic at CCF. That doesn't mean they are any sicker. They have a totally different business model. Regarding CVICUs at CCF, that's their forte. N...
