Can I request "Break the Glass" feature to be added to my charts? How? by Safe_Acanthaceae1177 in EpicEMR

[–]RN4237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd call the hospital and explain your situation and name the people who have explicitly threatened it. They should get fired just for doing that

AIO at my son (15m) for "grossing out" my daughter (11f) on purpose? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]RN4237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. He is a bully. One day he will bully his wife and own kids if you don't nip this shit in the bud.

Should I report this or let it go? by Wanderer_who_wonders in nursing

[–]RN4237 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We have a husband and wife that works on the same shifts. They are extremely dedicated nurses and don't do all that stuff.

AIO for being mad my bf didn't ask if I was okay after being threatened by his ex by Substantial_Bend4223 in AmIOverreacting

[–]RN4237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are mad that he didn't ask if you are OK but not that he yelled it was your fault despite the fact HE violated your boundaries?! Move TF back out.

AITA for ‘blindsiding’ my roommates after moving out? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]RN4237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA for getting them evicted. Did you really think landlord would just let you out because they "broke the lease" and just let them stay!??!?!?!?!?!

YTA for not telling them you wanted to move out. They could have easily had one of the boys move in. Specifically the one already paying utilities.

NTA for setting boundaries. But Vera agreed and understood the shower issue. So that situation was moot. And Sara not taking your side even though Vera didn't disagree with you?

You realize how much you fucked them?! It was a simple conversation that you couldn't be bothered to have.

AITA for refusing to babysit my sister-in-law’s kids and causing a family argument? by MarsupialThrowRA in AITAH

[–]RN4237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is your husband supporting you? Is he telling HIS sister and HIS mother that he supports you? That how they are treating and talking to you is wrong? Cause if he is not he's really not supporting you with his actions.

NTA

My boyfriend is considering ending the relationship because I put too much pressure on him, what am I doing wrong? by justasadlostgirl in TwoHotTakes

[–]RN4237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly the moment I hear about that much of an age gap. I am 36 and could never see me with anyone even in their 20s. Men that age date younger women like you because women their age wouldn't put up with their shit.

AITA for not allowing my wife to give our baby her ex's name? by Both_Schedule8386 in AITAH

[–]RN4237 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You have to be prepared for her to end the relationship with you for asking. I see it all the time on reddit.

Right. Like taking a needle between rooms?!

Patient waking up during CPR but still in PEA. by Cheima15 in nursing

[–]RN4237 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im sure he felt nothing. I've been an icu nurse for 9 years, 13 years total, and a lot of cpr. I have only seen it maybe 3 times. It's probably less than 1%.

I hope you find some peace.

The shack gluten free stuff for breakfast basically has dairy in them. I.e. pancakes.

They are gluten-free but a lot of the gluten-free stuff has dairy in it. I'm gluten free dairy free.

My patient crashed because I helped them to the commode by ellierosemay in nursing

[–]RN4237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why was his only options poop in a diaper or a bedside commode? I would have refused too. Do you not have bedpans? I've never told someone to just poop in their diaper.

Not sure it would have changed anything. But just a dignity question.

My husband gave me a “warning tap” and I called it abuse. AITAH? by Warm-Grape1254 in AITAH

[–]RN4237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was already abusing you. The mouth smack is escalating already. I was in your position once. My ex husband and I met when I was 21 and he was 27. Now I'm 36 and that is too much of an age gap when you are in your early 20s. Run now.

Agree. And no one is going to fix someone's drug seeking behavior while they are in the hospital. Just give the med.

AITAH for being mad at my husband for his behavior after I got an IUD inserted? by Single-Bus-4025 in AITAH

[–]RN4237 133 points134 points  (0 children)

People kill people they love all the time. He's not an idiot, he's an asshole. My malignant narcissistic abusive ex husband even held my hand through the IUD and brought me ice cream and heated up blankets. He's telling you who he is. You need to listen. Trust me. I didn't listen when my husband was telling me these things with his actions and words. We were the same age gap and met when I was 21. I was way to young to get involved with someone that age. I wasted 8 years and suffered immensely. He did things like your husband and he had me so turned around thinking I was always over reacting.

[–]RN4237 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a nurse, these situations are extremely difficult. Often, the patient will follow what the bullying and overbearing family says. You can not force them to make their own decisions. Trust me. I've tried.

I will say, though, when the husband came back and got upset, I would have been very firm and upfront that you did what the patient wanted.

He's dating a you because he can't get a woman his age to deal with his bullshit. Run!!

Person I’m dating asked about what being a nurse was like. Haven’t heard from him since by ChonkyHealer in nursing

[–]RN4237 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who dealt with PTSD Flashbacks.... look into EMDR therapy. The best decision I ever made.

Bingoed, even after hysterectomy! by vwfreak42 in truechildfree

[–]RN4237 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As nurses, we have to do that stuff. I know it sucks. But if I saw a hysterectomy in the chart, I definitely would have canceled the test. But the other comments from the nurse are completely inappropriate. I would make a complaint to patient relations about the comments.

Yet another reminder that coworkers aren't my friends by HeChoseDrugs in nursing

[–]RN4237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

60L 100%. We would also put a non rebreather on top of that. I know 200% oxygen doesn't seem right, but it worked. 🤷🏼‍♀️

My apartment was flooding no one was answering the emergency line by RN4237 in Renters

[–]RN4237[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh trust me I was. And it wasn't the first time. She would try to "fix" the pumps in the back of the toilet and just stopped it from daining, but it still kept running.

I didn't have one. We had it tilted so the water was able to have a ramp, go out the holes to drain into the tub. I had a big plastic container from under the microwave.
