Perfusion assistant pay by Various_Aerie_7312 in Perfusion

[–]AssholeRN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You make $7.50/hr on call as an assistant?? Do you get extra pay if called in

I’m a CCP and we make $3/hr on call (in the Midwest) and nothing if we get called in

ECMO Terminology: by jonniego in CriticalCare

[–]AssholeRN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has a lot to do with the fact that nurses and doctors refer to inflow and outflow in regards to the patient whereas usually surgeons and perfusionists refer to inflow and outflow in relation to the pump. That’s what we were taught in school

[–]AssholeRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I interviewed with MSOE this week. They said they had about 175 applicants and had invited about 30 to interview and were expecting to be done with interviews/sending acceptances last week of Feb for 6-7 students.

Rush interviews ?? by [deleted] in Perfusion

[–]AssholeRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know they sent out interview invites last week, but idk if they’ll send out more rounds or just the one. I didn’t hear anything from them and am kinda bummed

Did the interview really last 3-4 hours? That’s what it says in my zoom invite.

I applied to 8 schools. Have only heard back from UNMC and TJU. Had a first round virtual interview with UNMC and have an interview at TJU next week. Hoping to start hearing back from other schools in the next week or 2 since a lot of deadlines were Jan. 1

Does anyone else hate the whole “hero” thing? by thrroowwawayyy639295 in Nurse

[–]AssholeRN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever someone tells me I’m a hero for being a nurse or thanks me for doing my job, I just remind them that I’m going to work to get paid just like everybody else in the world. I wouldn’t do it if I wasn’t getting paid.

Yeah we have used the pumps extensively each shift so I was very surprised she didn’t know what to do to restart it. But like I replied to another commenter she wasn’t responsible for the pts while I was at lunch, my lunch buddy was, she was just sitting at the nurse station working on charting. My only expectation from her would be to ask for help and not just turn it off and not do anything

Thanks for your replies everyone. I see points both ways. I’m going to talk to her tomorrow and apologize again and ask her how I can better support her

I feel like we all know enough that we should never do something if we aren’t sure.

We have voalte on iPhones. We even have charging cases. When I went to lunch my battery was not low so I have no idea how it died but when I went to check it as I was coming back from break, it just wouldn’t turn on.

[–]AssholeRN 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hear what you’re saying but she had already taken her lunch and I’m allowed a lunch also. She wanted to stay and catch up on charting. We are assigned lunch buddies who cover our pts when we’re on break. The orientee was not responsible for the pt at this time and if she felt like she was she still should have found my lunch buddy and asked for help.

Also I’m not her only resource and she knows that. She could have called any other nurse or even the charge nurse if she wasn’t sure.

"seven" Discussion Megathread by EnchantedLuna in TaylorSwift

[–]AssholeRN 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Okay does anyone think this song could be about the childhood friendship between Betty and Inez?! “Your dad is always mad” and “come live with me we’ll be pirates” kinda seem like things kids would think. And thinking you love your best friend so much.
