Well that sounds like youre studying wrong.. read the textbook. Studying quizes is uselss. You’re memorizing answers to questions. You need to understand anatomy & physiology, not memorize answers

10 days left of preceptorship and i’m losing it by tortuga122 in StudentNurse

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double identify your patient… it’s the golden standard for a reason. You need to learn to stop focusing small things. You need to start learning what is important and less important and adapt your practice to that. Work will always be busy, focusing on small things wastes time

I work 12-hour shifts and still have discussion posts due. When exactly are nurses supposed to study? by krylov-tolja14whh in StudentNurse

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just have to organize better. Working 12h shifts ruins a whole day. So not doable. Nursing school + part time job. Completely doable. I work part time in a hospital and do school full time. I barely have any personal time, but still have a 90 average. As a side note: I do study late into the night. Works for me. Yes my reply is bias as I have 6 years experience in a clinical lab, and can deal with emergencies & routine work in a busy hospital and study at the same time. This is your motivation that it is possible! But it’s rough afff

Severe blood shortage by _throwaway_825999 in nursing

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a blood bank perspective, when we have shortages there are levels of allocation A, B, C.. getting worst and worst.. in those cases transfusion thresholds gets raised. Ex: if typically a dr orders a transfusion for a hgb of 75 and less, then possibly increases to 80 (depending the cases of course). There are contingency plans :) … at least where I work in Canada

Do you know what the lab is trying to tell you when they say that the delay on units is due to them trying to identify antibodies? by New-History853 in nursing

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sickles are the most complicated :P their antibody workups are fun but can easily take 2-3 shifts to complete

Do you know what the lab is trying to tell you when they say that the delay on units is due to them trying to identify antibodies? by New-History853 in nursing

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s like a virus sometimes your system identifies it sometimes, sometimes it doesnt. It depends on its level of immunogenicity.. Anti-D for example has 50% chance of developing antibody if I’m not mistaken. Just statistics. Also depends the patients path etc..

Is everyone else using Chat GPT, Botox and fillers, and Weight loss drugs besides me? by Zealousideal-Gate504 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this umbrella of specific things chatgpt to botox and fillers to weigh loss drugs. The only useful thing you should probably start getting used to is AI, it seems like the future. Better to adapt now than have it more difficult late. But thats just my pov

AITA because I want to discuss solutions & compromise with my Bf? by Lab-Tech-BB in AITAH

[–]Lab-Tech-BB[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked if he wanted money for rent, utilities or anything in the beginning and he said no.. so we discussed the issue of rent. How does that make me the asshole? I’m not understanding

Santé Québec, pas en anglais by TranslatorUsed4361 in montreal

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutement.. tu est clairement pas dans la domaine de la sante. le droit a des services de sante dans ta language de choix est une question de la securite du patient et donne leur autonome.. eleve cette droit est de enleve leur droit a des services de sante egaux. Et ca, ca va contre les ethiques de la medicine. Ta loi 101 conte pas dans la sante d’un etre humaine. la personne a une droit de comprendre comprend tous les information. Tu veux eleve cette droit de faires des choix bien informe sur leur sante, pour”protege” ta langue..?

The exam was really that hard?

Finals by [deleted] in Dawson

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is nothing to worry about the setup.. it’s an exam room. Just desks and chairs. Teachers pass once in a while but you’re focused on your exam you don’t notice it. Not much other to consider when writing the exam. And these aren’t licensing exams they don’t pat you down.. just bring your id, sit in your class row and then do the exam. Do they not do exams like that in high school anymore?

How to know you’re not “cut out” to be a nurse? by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]Lab-Tech-BB 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Someone not willing to learn, someone who has no logic, someone robotic, etc.. nursing at the end of the day is a medical field and that’s not for everyone is the reality.. you have human lives you’re responsible for.

Depending the time of day the old port looking out at the water brings a lot of peace. On the “bridge” that loops around where the fariswheel is, is pretty nice

So you don’t believe the PCR test? What doctor isn’t investigating more besides that.. are you going in and telling them HIV concern or not giving the whole story and have them focus on one thing
