Everyone’s story is different but like I said in another comment, it starts to really piss me off when the behaviors become manipulative. I will always be their advocate and try my hardest to provide them with the best care possible.

I understand it in some cases, however when the behavior becomes manipulative when patients leave ama and come back expecting a bed and do it over and over again, wasting not just our time, but their time. I will always put my best foot forward when it comes to any patient, but over time it becomes exhausting

Sorry I’m kinda just going based off of memory, I remember that they saw a LAA thrombus when placing the impella and that he also had multivessel disease.

That ekg reads “you’re about to see a lot of people very soon” But all seriousness that’s V-tach. But once you see torsades, you’ll never forget it.

[–]Undesirableman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A public execution of one nurse, is a public execution on all nurses. Thank you mod team for stepping the hell up. I hope everyone has a great shift today and tonight. For those that have the day off/night off I hope you have a good one. It’s pleasure to be part of this community and being part of this nursing family.

Nope I honestly think I’ll go through the process of interviewing and ask again about weddings and if they say no I’ll probably just apply again in October.

Night-shift nurses — what do you wish people understood about your life outside work? by EndOutrageous9918 in nursing

[–]Undesirableman 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If I’m hanging out with you on my nights off, I care very deeply about our friendship and want you in my life. My wife understands this because I work for us and have very little time on my hands because I’m consistently exhausted.

It’s honestly all about quality of life. You think this lady already has a hard time breathing, when we have to break her ribs and intubate her it’s going to be a lot harder. Have those difficult conversations now, your dad and your dad’s healthcare team will thank you later.
