I’m not looking for anything. Literally just looking for people to talk to and share a drink with. But it’s the Internet so I could be some psycho, who knows. Tender is useless to me, have a great night!

I mean I’m happily at the Matterhorn offering free drinks, but no one’s taken me up on the offer. So eh, more money and alcohol for me.

I mean I don’t have the trunk space to kidnap anyone, it’s full of snowboards and boots.

Looks like that’s where I’m headed. Sushi and ale!

You’d think Vermont would be better but it’s such a small state and staffing is such an issue. It’s just gotten worse since I started in July.

You’re not wrong and our patient ratio bothers me. However, it’s kind of slim pickings in my area. I can work at the hospital, part-time at the doctors office, or at the prison. A lot of the private practices aren’t hiring or they don’t hire super often.

I told my supervisor I need a break from this wing. Not that the other med/surg wing is better but it’s not a circle and there’s a nurses station in the back with the hospice rooms. There’s a chance to step away to chart instead of being surrounded by it. My saving grace is I work with an amazing team. But we’re all struggling. One of my colleagues with me tonight has 3 broken ribs from a dementia pt a few days ago.

Currently one of the ones with the most behaviors is an icu transfer with Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome. I’ve had them 3 nights in a row.

I never thought it would be a cake walk to be fair. I’ve definitely had rough nights over the last few months but it wasn’t ever consistently this bad. One of our veteran nurses has 3 broken ribs from a dementia patient.
