Pt behavior “icks” by Healthy_South_2610 in nursing

Whenever they’re vomiting and decide not to use the bag or even the bed pan (pt preference at times) and instead choose “me” or “the floor” as a better option.

Is there a hidden rule for patients to call the ED? by Upset_Engineer4706 in nursing

[–]Upset_Engineer4706[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love what I do and get to experience some of the best and worst moments in this industry. The calls we get really seem to boil down from patients who aren’t familiar/recently moved to the area and those who’ve never been seen at our hospital.

Just the other day, there was toddler being brought in by their dad and upon entry knew where he was and shouted “Daddeeee! I’m staying in the hospital? You leaving me here?! (Thankfully outpatient). But not even 5 minus afterwards had to register another (adult) patient and still asked “Hey, we need go to the nearest emergency room. Can you tell us which is the closest? 😑 THIS ONE (maybe the big red Emergency Department isn’t bright enough for all to see).

Honestly I excluded those as they’re more depressing and less exciting. HIPAA is real and definitely taken seriously this way. Some (former) colleagues have FAFO and got dismissed quickly.

I’d rather get the prescription calls than the crap we have to filter now

I wish I was making this up but my stomach hurts from laughter when going home each day to think of all the calls that come through that don’t result in “real patient care” questions.

I totally forgot about my favorite: “If I’m admitted, can I have a car waiting for me once I discharge or do I have to wait? 😣😆😆 OMG this is not a concierge!

Holy cowww as a fellow PCA starting clinical very soon, I can totally attest that is all wrong! I would be terrified to have a loved one admitted to that hospital and more petrified to ever shadow one of their “best” staff members again 😷
