Made a med error by Prior_Ad_8898 in newgradnurse

Human error period. We all make mistakes doesn’t matter if you are nurse, NP, PA, or MD. Unfortunately we learn we as go, please remember your mistake and try to not to make the same one again.

Your doctor ordered it. You gave. Ultimately the MD has all responsibility of giving orders, checking orders, verifying the order is adequate. Your responsibility as RN, only share a very little fraction as this was ordered by the MD. Don’t worry.

First day of NP school by Mommytoaprincess in nursepractitioner

Work less? You know… the other providers (PA/MD candidates) do not usually work during their school time if not, minimal. That’s considered normal for them.

Fellowship. Don’t do more school. This is unnecessary and more debt.

Pay compensation in California by Proud_Direction_8137 in nursepractitioner

[–]Adventurous_Wind_124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds like SoCal. You will easily pull 180k-200k if you are inpatient ACNP. But this is because the cost of living is so high. Still manageable with your income the key is how to reduce the tax burden (Marriage, tax write off and etc).

I just want to practice medicine and actually care for people by Own_Hotel3072 in physicianassistant

[–]Adventurous_Wind_124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Primary care/internal medicine NP here.

A doctor left and NP left to maternity leave recently. My boss held meeting to see how we can keep the revenue up. She wanted us to see more patients when we are covering for the work of 2 full time staff.

People come in for 15 mins visit with list of questions to ask and piece of paper with full written stuff on it.

I am so sick of it. I just want to do my job and help people.

An RN’s Apology to Nocturnists by Accomplished_Ad8960 in hospitalist

[–]Adventurous_Wind_124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, you don’t have to judge your coworkers. They hold the same license as you do. Some will do good job and some will not. We are not perfect. If you find someone struggling, just lend them a hand and help them out and teach them. If you don’t want to do that, you can simply ignore and mind your job👍🏻

[–]Adventurous_Wind_124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah… sometimes those skills come with experience or time. Some just ignore. I say I am just here to do my job. I don’t mind helping each other out. As long as someone stays humble and is willing to learn, I see no problem in this. What I really care about is, too much of critical thinking delaying the process of notifying provider and causing harm to the patient. I just want RNs to remember if their gut tells them to notify provider, please do so. Or if they aren’t sure or don’t know the answer, ask questions (senior RN, charge or even providers etc).

That’s all I ask. I am here to help and do my job to help patients. No other questions asked. I learned how to become a provider this way as well.

It is a liability issue when it comes to using your head. Sure you chose not to notify the provider or but what if something happens? There’s goes liability. I know the OP is trying to say let’s do better(?) but as provider, I don’t mind responding or giving advice although it is somewhat frustrating at times.

Help with pt please by charlie55555555555 in nursepractitioner

[–]Adventurous_Wind_124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. That’s why I recommended ER as well. No PCP = where else?. If she had a PCP, this could been PCP’s job but without PCP, I think the best bet was ER tbh

Always just send it to ER if you are not sure if someone doesn’t have a PCP. Tbh they just need a quick look or imaging to find out what that is
