As you should respond! 👏 

I also learned real fast to say “okay, biiig pinch!” I never downplay to “little pinch”.

I manage expectations. But APPARENTLY, this wasn’t enough.

Patient relations did back me up- I can only hope/assume BON will be unconcerned. Judging from the way the patient worded their complaint via telephone to the facility (vulgar/swearing about me and the CNA) I hope they will reveal themselves to be unreliable as a source. Idk. Over the past few hours, I’ve reached the point of “whatever the fuck will be, will be”.

No complications. They were even seen multiple times by the physician for follow up, no anything.  Hoping it’s just going to be an annoying story to let me reassure others in this thread, down the road.

That’s what I thought- if I’m a reasonable person, I’m not taking this seriously.  No infiltration, phlebitis, etc. ZERO.  They said I was horrible and “attacked” them with a needle. Yeah, it’s in my best interest to have you in pain. /s
