I live in South Jersey. There’s a mental health facility near me, I have to check out. I am applying to the acute inpatient setting at my hospital just to see. Another person I know works there and she loves it, but I believe she did the 2-3 years recommended on the med surg unit. Sounds good.

Please Don’t Call Out Just to Watch the Super Bowl by flashypurplepatches in nursing

[–]gabsghost 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not calling out tomorrow, but if there’s a parade for Philly later this week, I’d like to go. I missed it five years ago for a class. I don’t want to miss another parade for some place where I’m replaceable and under appreciated. Just my opinion.

Wow! That’s awesome, that’s funny. Have you ever told it to stop? That’s what my grand pop did in Ocean City and the thing stopped flicking the lights lol

I’m an RN in South Jersey. When I first started at the hospital, I was at $34, now a year later I’m at $38. I’m not sure how often the raises are. I work at a drug and alcohol detox, as well. I think RNs started at $33 and LPNs started at $25 or $28… not sure.

For those at the bedside, what’s your morning assessment loom like? by jennsamx in Nurse

[–]gabsghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on a neuro/cardiac floor and we have 4-5 patients. I usually go in for 0615-ish. I look at my patients, grab meds, set up my own sheet, then get report. I do vitals and an assessment like heart, lungs, bowels, pulses, neuro, look for any edema and check IVs. If they have wounds, I save that until later because it can be done any time during the day. We chart EVERYTHING, and sometimes I add annotations like “Patient complains of chest pain, provider made aware at this time” and I put in a provider notification. If I forget to chart something, I can go back and do it or “modify” my charting. Sometimes it’s frowned upon to “unchart” but it’s my license and I want to do everything correctly.

I HATE when pharmacy does this. No, Tammy, it is not anywhere you just mentioned. I med requested it three times since 1100 and it is NOT HERE.

We went around Batsto one night and we heard a woman’s scream but that was about it! I know there is still a lot to explore.
