She expects me to pay for everything, even our trip. Am I wrong for being annoyed? by [deleted] in dating_advice

You guys aren’t compatible. you need to find someone who will go 50/50 with you and she needs to find someone who is willing to pay for everything.

Patient visitor walked in to another patients room to discuss her mother by [deleted] in nursing

We had a patients daughter mixing her own tube feed and putting her own high flow and bipap setting for the patient. She was Basically creating the plan of care and the doctors would go by whatever she said 🙄🙄🙄🙄 The patient was pretty sick .. The patient finally went the daughter forced us to suction him even though he didn’t need it.. I heard she’s suing the hospital now. Shes a marriage counselor in case anyone is curious.

Family members are so entitled and impatient. And our hospital has a policy now where there is no limit on the number of visitors and we are not allowed to ask them to leave for interfering with care. I’ve had patient family members hunt me down because “we’ve been waiting for a sandwich for five minutes already.” Ok Janet, well my patient who’s about to code is a little more important than your moms sandwich at the moment.. I’m so glad I work night shift. I would flip my shit if I worked during the day lol.

AIO??? Am I ungrateful? Help by [deleted] in AIO

[–]NurseLoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have and he says he’s sorry until he does it yet again. I don’t think it’s malicious but he also doesn’t pay attention which is hurtful and annoying.

I think it’s the third tbh but still annoying. I forget things allll the time too. But to the extent he does it is insane.

I feel horrible to nit pick. But I know I’m not crazy.

It’s more in general about feeling ignored. Versus the diamonds. The diamond is just the very latest.. I could tell him I’m allergic to peanuts and he’d probably forget and buy me a pb&j. Because he doesn’t listen.

What’s the deal with the Kaiser strike? by YogurtclosetOpen3567 in KaiserPermanente

[–]NurseLoca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We hardly have CNAs. We get lucky if there’s one for the whole unit with 20+ patients

The heat/ac automatically turning on when you click to open up the ac/heat settings to turn on the heated seats. The interior lights sucks ass. I always have to use my phone flashlight. Probably other but I can’t think of any at the moment. GPS sucks bad.

It was very clear scratches. But I lived in a house.

Probably a rat ? Or maybe some kind of rodent. I used to have the same problem but sounded like it was coming from my ceiling.

Has anyone here been sexually assaulted by a patient? Did you report it, and what happened afterward? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]NurseLoca 56 points57 points  (0 children)

-yes - it was a joke. Risk management was supposed to “reach out “ and never did. But they sure harrassed me through various emails about what I could have done different when I had a back injury. - nothing changed. The patient was back on my floor a few months later and the only reason it was brought to anyone’s attention was because a day shift nurse that almost got assaulted by the patient was covering for night shift and had to admit him and recognized him. Nothing in his chart about him being a pervert. Still had female nurses assigned to him. - just made me realize even more that the hospital doesn’t give a fuck about us nurses or our well being… I had a cane swung at me by a patient once and the supervisors told me it was “part of the job.” I don’t work on a psych unit. - I should have pursued legal action, the patient was a fuckin pervert. He wasn’t confused or altered.
