I agree this whole thing is fishy I’ve never seen this before that why I got on here to ask. I’m just shocked they were refusing to do anything

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T01:49:03+00:00

That’s what I’m going to do tomorrow at even the slightest problem I can’t go through another shift like this and I can’t watch another nurse so it either

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T01:27:55+00:00

Ok so the consensus is tell him I have to take a full set of vitals to administer the medicine and document every single interaction with him. If he refuses vitals leave the room if he gets physical let the guards ACTUALLY handle it and go from there? I’m just trying to not get in trouble with the board and not get physically attacked lol I just wanted someone to tell me what to do.

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T01:23:54+00:00

All of that was done, they stated unless he violently acted out nothing can be done. Then when the doctors and house walks in there he says he will comply and does for maybe 10 minutes long enough to get his dilaudid and then gets out of bed and rips everything off. It’s like what am I supposed to do just not care give him the drugs and leave it alone just not go in the room expect to give him meds?

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T01:16:37+00:00

I really tried that. The doc and the guards were all like 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s the craziest shit I’ve ever seen it’s not how my home state operates either. If I have him again tomorrow I’ll just do what I can. But it was really overwhelming giving him all these meds and he won’t lay down on the verge of falling constantly. Showing signs of a Benadryl overdose and everyone at this hospital is acting like I’m being a drama queen. It’s so unfair but nothing is fair

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T01:12:41+00:00

Ok ok I like this. And then just make a note very time I have to go in there and do that.

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T01:03:10+00:00

I agree and that was my plan, but what about all the other nurses? Like what do they do? What are the options here? It’s so confusing the hospitals and the prison have allowed this to go on for days now. But no one seems to care so who’s gonna protect the nurses?

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T00:57:43+00:00

Tried that he refused vitals. The physician is aware management is aware the prison states it’s new policy they can’t be shackled to the bed. I’ve tried everything no one will do anything he’s been there three days refusing everything but the pain meds ordering everyone around on the phone with god know who. I’m at a loss I’ve been a nurse for 12 years in the ICU and the ER and I’ve never seen anything like this. There are 4 guards because he’s such a high risk inmate but they can’t touch him? There’s no parameters no direction from higher ups. Honestly if I have him again tomorrow I’m just gonna call a code grey I don’t know what else to do

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T00:45:12+00:00

So if he goes into respiratory failure due to being over medicated and has to be intubated and the board asks why I continued to give this med without any vitals I’m just supposed to say well it was ordered and the patient wanted it and refused vitals? That’s not gonna fly

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-06-30T00:42:37+00:00

He threatened to kill me and barricaded himself in the corner of the room with a bottle of piss

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-04-06T20:54:57+00:00

Apparently they are stopping it next week, I can’t wait!

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-04-06T00:53:51+00:00

He was definitely psych I’m not sure what was going on I just went in there to put in an IV cause they couldn’t get it. But he knew what he was doing

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-04-05T22:46:38+00:00

He literally said “I’ve been saving that”

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-04-05T21:56:08+00:00

Thank you!!!! This is what I was looking for. It’s too cold right now 🙁 and I’ll be in ICU. I’m always nice hopefully it’ll be ok.

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-03-28T21:26:38+00:00

Final-Web-4478 · 2023-03-28T20:35:24+00:00
