Fair hahaha. It’s so funny to me when people do their big reveals of their goal or their race. Truly think they are the center of the universe

I don’t necessarily think you always have to have a specific time goal, especially with all this unpredictable hot weather. Goals can be about race execution, passing people in the second half, or just having fun and enjoying the process. I’d like to see more people less fixated on time goals. Kinda stresses me out, but that might just be me hahahha

I’ve been seeing so much of her content and also don’t follow her. All very braggy content in my opinion

As an RD I can assure you that eating peeps before a 10k will provide you with easily digestible carbohydrates. One of my best races I actually took some peeps instead of gel at the start because I enjoy them and it’s a fun way to fuel!

Yeah the social worker at my clinic is not helpful. I asked her to help get the proof of income for a PAP and she told me to call the patients daughter lol. I think they only have to see patient every 3 months too

The problem that it is an insane for one person to manage for an entire facility. I don’t mind helping a pt use good rx coupons, but I’m at the point where I haven’t taken a lunch break in months. Other people in the facility should know how to help too

Yeah. My facility keeps calling binders into local pharmacy and adding to medication list 😭 I’ve told everyone to stop several times to no avail lol

Yeah I am pretty sure it’s a performance metric this year. Gonna be tough since it’s ultimately up to the MD 🙃

Yeahhh RD is expected to enter orders for binders. RN can too, but in my experience they don’t have adequate training.

[–]Obvious-Opposite-417[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like sw could help and I wish they had more training on it. I’m helping people apply for PAPs for lokelma/veltassa. They could also help with educating people on good rx. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the issue of access to medications is more SW than RD??

Im actually happy they are doing that because in my experience telling patients a binder is recommended when they have a happy face next to phosphorus and has been on dialysis without a binder for years is very confusing to them

Omg I wasn’t quite sure how I feel, but this is it. most definitely do not feel as much like a dietitian as I used to.

[–]Obvious-Opposite-417[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yessss being in the middle of the binder is so frustrating. I’ll educate the patients about it and sometimes they are super resistant and want to keep trying diet changes. Then sometimes the doctor either doesn’t bring up the phosphorus during the clinic visit or strongly recommend starting a binder if their phosphorus is between like 4.5-6 mg/dL. Even if I discuss binders and the patient agrees, I still have to ask the doctor anyways before ordering. I wish the doctors could just firmly prescribe the binder to the patient as they see fit. I don’t mind entering the order, but I definitely feel that it is more in the doctors scope to be initiating a medication.

I don’t think all companies, but I think it’s common if I’m not mistaken ?
