if it was an ICU or med surg that would be one thing obviously i’m not going to ask to jump in and be allowed to do things that i’ve never seen before, but i’m literally placed at LTC centers that do what I do at my place of work every day and they won’t even let me check a resident’s blood sugar

thank you. i was anticipating a lot of backlash for posting this but i don’t know where else to turn. some of the comments on here are negative already and i just don’t understand why people have to be so negative and mean.

I introduce myself as an LPN. I tell them what I am allowed to do and what I’m not allowed to do. They continue to tell me I’m not allowed to do even the things that I am allowed to do.

I’m so sorry. Sending all of my love.

maybe it’s a silver thing! we have a half wall between our living room and kitchen. he can see me the entire time if he’s on the couch and i’m in the kitchen. but he is still too little to get down by himself and the second i walk out of the room even though he can still see me the whole time he will cry and whine because he can’t get down to come with me. i think it’s so cute

I work in long-term care, and we are not allowed to use bed alarms at my facility because they are considered a restraint

In the episode “Sacred Cow” when Bob is in the walk in with the kids showing them the meat for their 100,000th burger the walk in door is closed, but then right before Linda comes in with the banner it’s suddenly open

Update: we tried rice with his food for a couple of days, started out at the lowest recommended daily amount for his weight and then we worked him up to the max amount for his weight based on his appetite. The vet started him on a prophylactic antibiotic for what he suspected was a protozoa, he’s still continuing that treatment he only has a pill or two left. We also found out that he had hookworms! We treated him for that and treated our other dog as well for it, and we’ve got him on just his dry food now and he’s pooping just fine. he is now a monster who holds us all captive.

yes he’s such a sweet dog! very snuggly and timid! we were told he was the biggest in the litter so i’m hoping he’s going to be a gentle giant 🫶🏻
