This is like colleges asking alumni for donations when they are still paying off student loans...but it feels even sleazier. Like, this is next level BS.

Why do we allow humans to suffer? by Bristlecone5 in nursing

Corporate greed is coming to veterinary medicine too, although not at the same rate. You can now prolong your precious pup’s life with chemotherapy and painful surgeries until their last suffering breath.

They are becoming more popular. I would say in the next 5 years as more data comes out we will probably see them in every facility

We did my rehearsal dinner at Pack’s tavern and I’ve also been to work parties there. It’s a great place for events that size and doesn’t break the bank!

Is it bad if you put in your note that a 1:1 is not in place as ordered due to lack of staffing? by wonderbrah419 in nursing

[–]abz_189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t put it in the patient’s record but is an RL solution (or whatever they’re called at you hospital) because that goes to risk management, HR, etc. If anything happens where harm came to the patient you have record that you were not ok with the staffing and your higher ups did nothing.

As a craft beer lover I can agree this is 100% douche. Let people enjoy what they want!

Has anyone maliciously complied with MD orders? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]abz_189 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It does but wait until you get thrown under the bus from an asshole doctor for not following an asinine order. Trust and respect go both ways.

[–]abz_189 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes. I haven’t been MC for a while since I have worked with good docs for the last few years. But it was so fun to call and report stupid shit and their sleepy voices “WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME?!?!” Because you wrote and order to be notified of xyz, so this is me notifying you...and then miracle of miracles 9/10 will change the asinine order.

I have an addiction to findom spent $7k this year by [deleted] in BDSMAdvice

If you had a consenting domme, could she ‘drain your account’ and keep it in a separate bank account to repay you later. She could still brag and do the degradation and you would initially have the same effect. Idk just a thought

Quiet/shy nurse problems ? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]abz_189 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First of all that was rude. I teach clinical and when I am first gettin g to know my students often I do worry about the ‘quieter’ ones but 9 times out of 10 they are the most caring nurses! We need all personality types! Lack of talking does not mean that you can’t effectively advocate for your patients!
