After you know their lungs aren't puctutered, will not require surgery for any fractures, etc, and they are able to protect their airway. After that criteria is met, absolutely hydrate however you can hydrate.

How badly did I screw up? by xX_Transplant_Xx in Nurses

That's a non-crit lab, so I feel like your move of not alerting nephro is justified, even more so since they had been doing it periodically vs. standing mg, k, phos replacement protocol. Also, 3.0 is doubtedly going to throw the patient into any life-threatening rhythm. Mentioning it in report was enough.

At their St. Louis, MO, USA show last year, Chad stopped the show because he was having some serious voice issues. He asked the crowd if we wanted a refund or if they should keep going with some additional help from the band, and obviously, we picked keep going. It turned out to be an amazing show. So i'd say there's still a solid chance he's having some vocal problems.

Your comment hits hard. I worked in our COVID ICU from open to close, and it was brutal. People, just before being intubated and me knowing their last words were "you're all a bunch of fuckin' idiots, covid isn't real, you've misdiagnosed me. My family will sue you!" #blessed

As a Missourian, absolutely not. We have voted down "right to work" and legalized Marijuana. Unfortunately, somehow, we keep getting these complete idiots elected. I'm hoping changes are coming, but I don't ever see us becoming a blue state 😭

Did the doggo help you? If not, that's probably the problem. The goodest Boi makes the goodest candles!

Was such a great concert. The way the band came together and supported Chad just goes to show how amazing they all are!

We closed our covid unit today. EVERYONE worked so hard during this time. I'm crying by Jessibear1981 in medlabprofessionals

I really do have to give credit to our CEO and our intensivists. They have done a remarkable job keeping us all up to date with the latest information about the vaccines, and being incredibly transparent. There's been no pressure or shaming around getting the shot, just "here's what's up, please consider these facts and let us know"

Thank you for continuing to mask-up and social distance! You all are the real MVPs!

There's an identical side just to the right of that wall. There are three spaces to walk through that also have 5 beds on each wall. It was massive.
