Specializes in Research, ICU, hospice, pain management.

I just went to the iTunes store and wrote a...rather undiplomatic review of this app. I would encourage everyone to do the same. This just perpetuates peoples' beliefs that nurses are too busy sitting on our derriere, drinking coffee and eating pastries. OMG! :arghh:

Oh, yessindeedy!

Wasn't unusual for us to get a phone call at the nurse's station that Mrs. XX was calling 911 again about "being held captive in a dungeon". Ummm...OK, we're not the Waldorf, but....!

Or the one that called the police because he wanted all the staff arrested because he was being forced to wait for pain medication that he was ENTITLED TO HAVE "whenever" he wanted it. Yeah. They got crackin' on that one, too. :cyclops:

Hey....maybe there's a market for an APP for THAT!

Are you on iPhone/iPad?

Sorry, missed this. Smartphone, not the brand iPhone. I figured was the way to get to download the app, LOL, since I certainly wasn't gonna do it on my desktop! ?

But it wouldn't come up in the Play Store...WAS pretty tired, and haven't been back to try again. Maybe I'll give it another whirl.

Yes way. And call the police to tell them they need an enema, or that beautiful women are holding them prisoner and having sex with them. "Could you please tell my wife to come and get me -- but not until tomorrow morning."

Real or not, it's things like this that make me happy I work in an environment WITHOUT call bells.
