hi all! i need some information to shed light on my concern right now. I had been on leave from work for 3 weeks now, and still have a week to go before i'm going back to work (and this is not a vacation, just important matters i need to sort urgently).
So while things are turning out better on my side and getting ready again for work, i received a call from DPH asking me about a certain drug. This drug comes in 10 or 20 mg, and on the MAR it says 50mg. It has already been clarified with the MD that it was supposed to be 10mg, but for some reason the MAR hasnt been updated. I remember giving 10mg all along, however i was questioned why it has been signed as 50mg. I asked the other nurses how they have been giving the drug, and same as i did, they gave 10mg.
So i told the surveyor (on the phone) everything that i could remember about the drug. i was concerned that there might be other questions he might have, so i told him that if there's anything else that needs to be clarified, i can make my way there and discuss the matter with him. I talked to my supervisor and he said he doesn't know yet whether or not it's gonna get me in trouble. At this point, i dont feel like going back.. im really scared... (my only consolation is that this patient is still in the facility, still alive and in good condition, havent had any side-effects documented, and likes me a lot as his nurse).. but still, i worked hard for my license and never did i intend to harm someone :imbar:sniff:
