I never give pain meds to sleeping pts. I had a pt call the desk the other night and ask for pain meds. It took me exactly 5 minutes to prepare them and get to the room. When I got there, she was snoring. Woke up 10 minutes later calling for something for sleep. I explained the situation and documented it thoroughly and she agreed to hold off. My only problem is that the pt in question is a family member of one of our staff. What do you do? Do you wake them up?
