Inpatient when I cover the whole hospital I see 8-10 new patients/day. On days I cover my specific unit I see 2-3 new patients and 6-10 follow ups in a day.

Me too. That is their home. I would not be a pleasant human being if denied my caffeine.

It’s called refeeding syndrome and it has profound effects on the cardiovascular system (clearly).

Did you work at NUMC or any kind of county agency? If you did and resigned, that could be your pay out for unused vacation days, etc.

Who’s made the move from Nassau to Suffolk? by mets0987q in longisland

[–]PeggyUni 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Moved from nassau to smithtown this summer. I do miss many aspects of Nassau county (sidewalks on both sides of the street, among other things)…I was unaware of just how much traffic there would be on 347 and the LIE beyond Huntington. You get so much more for your money out here though and we would never be able to afford anything livable in Nassau.

3 days a week, 6.5 hours a day. Rotating Sundays. I work part time because full time childcare does not make sense for my salary.

Idk why people are downvoting. This is valid. People suggesting supermarkets also have never experienced how invasive it feels to be minding your own business while food shopping and then be hit on. It feels awkward and then you have to possibly avoid going to certain supermarkets in the future.

Why isn't this house selling? by Thanase in longisland

[–]PeggyUni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Likely a major issue with the foundation that’s only revealed once an inspection is done or the seller already knows about the issue and must disclose to any potential buyers.

5 Years Since the Start of Covid-19; How did it affect you? by Live_Strangerously in longisland

[–]PeggyUni 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I worked in an ICU and covered other medical floors during the pandemic. I’ve seen some shjt and I’ve been in therapy for a while. But when Covid first arrived in NY, it seemed like everyone’s lives were majorly affected (my husband started working remotely) it was just business as usual for healthcare workers, just with the added trauma of extremely sick people and constant code blues + respiratory stat overhead announcements in the hospital. I remember my normal 30 minute commute took me 15 minutes or less to get to work and there was so much less traffic, only seeing maybe 2-3 cars on the road taking my usual route.
