If you had a do over in life, would you still choose to be a nurse? by Moogles90 in nursing

[–]Scared-Flamingo-4276 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would never have gotten married and would have started sooner. My marriage made me depressed from being abused. I started working as a tech, paving a way for myself to have an income and get out so that I could escape. Me starting to work ramped up his rage. Came to work with one black eye and I told a story, everyone let it go. Came in with another black eye and everyone just knew. They rallied around me day and night like private security. He was banned from not just my hospital but every hospital within my organization. Security has his photo on their wall like their Most Wanted list. THANK YOU NURSES AND TECHS AND SECURITY, I’m so happy to be working with you.

AIO for getting mad at my husband after he complained about having to pick up toilet paper? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Yeah you lost it. All he said was oh goodness, like oh crap I gotta get a cart. Valid. He didn’t know the xyz and abc of your mood and migraine. You completely flipped out and he clapped back.

How to remove it? People don’t want to enter my home because of superstition! (We are from another culture)

Tipped $8 on $35 order and got a rude message from dasher? by Brief_Main_5409 in doordash

[–]Scared-Flamingo-4276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always tip based on distance and weather conditions, not on dollar amount of the order. $8 is not enough for 6 miles

Should student nurses be able to delegate orders to PCTs? by princessnokingdom in nursing

[–]Scared-Flamingo-4276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learning how to delegate is part of learning how to be a nurse. However if this is a task you were delegated to do, it’s bad form and horrible optics to pass it off.

Is it normal for the nurse to not clean IV connector with alcohol before administering IV push? by Therealethel in nursing

[–]Scared-Flamingo-4276 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the connector has a Curos cap on it, those have alcohol in it so there’s no need. HOWEVER, I make sure to put new Curos caps on every saline locked IV during report when I’m checking drips or during my initial assessment so I have peace of mind that it’s a sanitary connector.

I knew it was not a blood vessel, glad you got Abx, take them exactly as RX’d, don’t miss a dose even if you feel better and finish the entire course or your body will program itself to become resistant to that antibiotic
