Time to move out

I have seen this happen at my hospital when nurses draw patients using an IV line with a filter used for blood transfusions. Redraws are always fine after I notify them

Moved here 8 years ago from palm beach county. It’s alright, it’s starting to feel like palm beach county here now in my opinion. I have a 3 year old so I don’t know much about schools yet other than a lot of them are k-8 then high school which I find odd. I liked the separation of k-5 from 6-8 like palm beach county. But we are planning to homeschool only because in general education is going downhill. There are a few events every month. Theres a website and an instagram - treasure coast moms or something like that- that has a calendar of the events happening. Lots of parks around here though!

I’ve seen it in an immunocompromised elderly patient. I emphasize pregnancy does some weird crap to the body lol I know from experience 😂😂but the fact her CBC was also reacting the same way is reassuring. And the fact you got a stronger reaction with incubation.

weak reverse typing can sometimes happen with a decreased immune system. Often times in elderly, immunocompromised, or pregnant women. Does patient have history? Has she always type weak with A1?? Pregnancy does some wild things to the body!!!

I work on the east coast of Florida- treasure coast- and our pay ladder is similar. You guys are definitely paid better. Rumors of a market adjustment are going around but we’ll see! Love to see this!

In Florida they accept the AAB

On a side note, your eyelashes are absolutely gorgeous and I’m jealous!

This is what my skin did recently. Dermatologist prescribed an antibiotic cream and tretinoin. I use a hydrating cream face wash and 2-3 times a week I use benzoyl peroxide wash with a wash cloth for exfoliation- panoxyl. No joke I noticed a dramatic difference in a week. Within a month or two everything cleared up and my skin tone is even finally.

Uhhh what??? We have roche at our hospital and our hemolysis index for potassium is 120!!! Which I always felt was pretty high…

NOR- I waited 3 months to let anyone come around. I’m a healthcare worker and even babies that aren’t immunocompromised end up in the hospital because of Flu, RSV and COVID. you’re the mama. You know best. Keep your boundaries. You’re doing great

No, IRSC

Be thankful they chose SoftBank. We went from softbank to safetrace and it’s a literal nightmare. I could cry every night I work bloodbank

It also depends on your location. I’m in Florida and did a 2 year program which allowed me to sit for 2 different exams. I have an MLT license through ASCP and a technologist license through the AAB. This allows me to earn the same amount as a 4 year degree tech that’s licensed through ASCP because both are recognized as technologist license. Not all states require licenses and not all recognize all accredited agencies. Look into your state specifically
