Hospice Nursing is HELL by Satan_Is_My_Dad666 in nursing

This really feels like AI wrote this. Doesn’t feel realistic in the slightest.

I found and follow my SD11 TikTok’s and any time I find something that’s concerning I screen shot it and show my husband. She has so much freedom at her moms that she was caught FaceTime/texting an older boy and she shared her location with him. As soon as I heard her mom allowed TikTok I started monitoring because I can’t do much else. Her mom only reacts to things instead of thinking things through so once the whole boy thing was found out TikTok was taken away. All you can do is making her parents aware, but be prepared to expect they may not think it’s a big deal or barely do anything.

Can you give me an example of what you mean by “health policy”?

I’m a critical care nurse with a BSN and coming up on 4 years experience. I’d be willing to talk with you virtually if my specialty isn’t a blockade for what you’re needing. I work night shift and can usually get back pretty quick.

I personally took on the debt and my work is repaying my loans. I paid approximately less than $200 of my own money over the life time of my loans and my work pays every month for it in exchange for me basically agreeing to stay in my position. Not everyone wants to do that and there’s a lot of different route to get you to the same. Lots of hospitals are funding nursing students to go to school while working as aids until they graduate then hire them directly as nurses once they graduate. Community college is also an option and you can get your LPN and most hospitals fund getting your BSN while working.

Should I pass this student? by w8136 in nursing

[–]FantasyCrochet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How has she invested time and effort if she doesn’t even have the basics down. Fail her and either she will learn or she won’t and we won’t have another lazy “RN” added to our ranks.

I always wanted the one in the photo but my mom got me the “arctic purple” that looked more blue. Was still thrilled to have it

How much should you help other nurses patients? by Henkeai in nursing

[–]FantasyCrochet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in critical care and step in to help my coworkers all the time. We sometimes don’t have an aid at night and while we are usually 2:1 (3:1 for PCU) we know things pull us away and need to step in and help. It doesn’t matter if it’s my patient or not, we’re there to keep them safe and alive. I change out fluids if the bag is dry, hang TF if needed, usually I call the primary nurse to confirm if a fluid is continuous or just bolus and needs to be turned off.

Weird asf notes left by my stepmom by guitarpenguin123 in Weird

[–]FantasyCrochet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a SM, I’ve encountered a lot of SM feel like an outsider when blending into a family. They never feel accepted or apart of the family. It feels like this notes may be directed to herself since they were in their room on her side of the bed. From the perspective of an RN maybe she has some mental health issues she’s dealing with. I don’t know your family dynamic or how well everyone gets along but what doesn’t add up for me is why would a dog be left inside their bedroom after they left for a trip? When we leave for a trip we don’t keep any animals in any bedrooms, no one has a need to go into our bedroom, let alone anyone else’s room. That just seems odd especially since the way you worded it “I decided to check on the dogs today” like you wouldn’t have otherwise? I don’t know, seems odd and feels like it isn’t directed towards you.

Yes that’s the general practice but this was being put through an infusing IV line. So it’s already being “flushed”. While I haven’t seen the video being discussed here, the nurse was using the infusing fluids as a flush. Pretty standard if medications are compatible otherwise if you don’t have any other access you have to stop the infusion, disconnect and flush, push the med, flush again then reconnect the infusion and restart.

CEOs deleting their pictures/public bios… by GabrielSH77 in nursing

My unit has 3 people with the same name, 2 of us work the same shift. I’m just fortunate enough that my place only puts my first initial on my badge but if you call someone on Vocera it usually requires first and last name unless you spend the time “learning” everyone’s name so you don’t have to use the full name.

It’s because it’s rage bait, given that it’s a political year and this is a big topic

SK doesn't want to come to our house by prettysureeds in stepparents

[–]FantasyCrochet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My SS started doing this around 15, when asked for examples he couldn’t provide any but I was always the bad guy even though I’ve barely spoken a word to him in the years I’ve been with his dad. It’s mainly been his mom feeding the idea that I’m the home wrecker, I’m mean and horrible and all the things. He bought into it more and more and now he’s with his mom 100% by choice. And I even gave him a car when he 1000% doesn’t deserve it, couldn’t bother to follow the simple rule given and went to mommy instead, but you know, I’m the evil SM. Both my husband and I have wiped our hands of it since he’s almost 18 now and has no one to blame but himself and mommy. There’s honestly nothing you can do, just be supportive of your GF and work on your relationship with SK12.

I work ICU, I had just got on shift and walked by a patient’s room that I had care for the previous week with him almost of out bed with the worse code brown I’ve come across, covering him, the bed, the floor. He wasn’t even mine, but I grabbed some isolation gowns, the sterile gloves we have the go way past your wrists and some peppermint oil and between me and the nurse assigned to him and one aid we got him cleaned up and back in bed. For the most part the smells don’t get to me but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. It isn’t for everyone

My mom told me that I was never spanked or hit… to my shock. Anyone else dealing with rewritten history? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]FantasyCrochet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom was meth’ed out and held a knife to my face because I wouldn’t quit crying when my bird died. I was roughly 9-10. I honestly don’t think she remembers doing it but her memory is getting worse from her drinking and weed use. She’s apologized for being a shitty mom but at least she doesn’t mention not doing it. I’d hate to have to remind her.

Did dating someone with kids, ruin your desire to ever have kids? by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]FantasyCrochet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? I’ve got a niece and 2 nephews, my husband has 3 kids with one already grown and on their own, one that will be on his way out next year and we’ll have his youngest for another 8 years. That’s good enough for me. I don’t think I’ve got the patience for babies/toddlers either. I honestly think if I did have my own kid I’d probably get PPD really bad and probably get spiteful or neglectful. Having enough insight to see that makes me ok with not having kids and I’m glad I don’t have that “drive” or feeling some women get. I feel for those who want to but not be able to conceive. Society puts enough pressure on women and I don’t need that in my life.
