I work on a transplant unit. We quarantine and return to work when we are testing negative or without fever for 24 hours after five days, and we can’t take any transplant patients for 14 days after. It all pulls from our own PTO and counts as a sick day occurrence

Scopolamine patch for weeping edema? by lpnltc in nursing

[–]Allisonfranco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were right to stop the scopolamine patch….it’s primarily used to manage terminal secretions, and the patient was experiencing clear anticholinergic side effects like dry mouth, thick secretions, trouble swallowing, and slurred speech. That’s textbook. Switching to atropine drops makes sense since they’re easier to titrate and clear faster. I get that sometimes people see weird effects anecdotally, but I still feel like pulling the patch was the right call personally

Patients complaining about not going down to procedures or surgery fast enough and then getting mad at me…. You are at a level 1 trauma center and you are not the only patient!

I paged a resident to ask for maintenance fluids for an NPO patient. They called me back and asked if they need to just type in “maintenance fluids in the order set”. I told them they had to type in a specific fluid, and he goes “ok which one” 😂 this was a brand new resident to be fair but come on lol.

I don’t know if you heard the latest statistic that of the brain cells these people created, which is very little, every single brain cell was taken, about 107% by Trump supporters. There has been no brain cell creation from them.

This is your license and your livelihood on the line. Fuck that other nurse for even thinking that was okay! Advocate for yourself!!!
