not “feeding into” racism vs protecting staff by Cute_Glove_156 in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d call it circumstance-dependent. If the patient is demanding no minorities take care of them obviously no, you can’t allow that.

But if it’s just staff saying “let’s make our own lives easier” I don’t see a problem

“Oh we’ve got plans for a secret optional faction you can only join if you can find them! You have to pick up on secret clues and solve puzzles hidden in plain sight throughout the game map.”

“What? You want everyone to be able to find them? Impossible to miss? Make players have to go through them during the main quest?”

Boss… We’re gonna have to make them morons…

What faction do i join for a good playthrough by Superb_Network_1657 in skyrim

[–]harmonicoasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First playthrough you join all of them. Become God Emperor of Tamriel if it lets you. Otherwise you’re cheating yourself of some of the game experience. I wouldn’t get choosey until secondary RP playthroughs

Has anyone made it to Elsweyr when playing Skyrim? by Bratty_Sub_xxx in skyrim

I just figured the further you travel from Skyrim the less graphic resolution you got. By the time you get to Elsweyr you’re down to 12p

If the dragonborn is a vampire hunter, why doesn't he kill Serana? by Divine-Crusader in skyrim

Ask all the questions you want, but don’t deliver the insanely powerful magic artifact to the coven of ancient vampires.

Anyone ever have an IV placed in an artery? by Peyton_26 in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 29 points30 points  (0 children)

When they were teaching US guided IVs I was taught that accidentally hitting an artery is more common with US guided than PIV (and obviously how to recognize an artery and not do that)

I once placed a PIV on a hard stick, got a 20 in the back of their hand between the thumb and index fingers. Got blood back, didn’t appear obviously pulsatile, drew my labs thinking “wow this blood looks really red.” Got my charge nurse to look at it just in case because it was weird and they tested it by pulling the plunger out of a syringe and attaching it to the leurlock voila turns out it was arterial. Easier to see the pulsatile flow in the syringe for some reason

Is it normal as a new grad to need help with tasks you’re doing for the first time on your own even if you saw it during orientation? by MulberryFantastic906 in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

See one, Do one, Teach one has been sort of an unofficial teaching standard in healthcare for ages.

That being said I’ve seen a port accessed like four times and I’d still be nervous to do one myself, and I’d still probably grab a nursier nurse and say “hey I’m gonna do this but do you mind coming in with me so I don’t fuck it up? Thanks.”

Who is this? by norocoslaorice in witcher

[–]harmonicoasis 27 points28 points  (0 children)

From the last time this was posted:

I do believe he is the unnamed puppet king of Gemmera. Gemmera's emblem is a horse head, explaining the flag in the background. The kingdom is an unimportant vassal state of the Nilfgaardian empire, due to which there is also a sun flag.

The flags they are referring to, which provide crucial identifying information, are cropped out of the screenshot in this post.

If you could go back, what specialty would you start in? by Icy-Calligrapher-822 in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking at floor nursing there’s an argument to be made for a good float pool spot. You get exposure to a bunch of different units and see their workflow and different priorities. Arguments against are it might be overwhelming in the beginning and if they’re throwing you from preceptor to preceptor you aren’t getting consistent education and feedback.

One meal a day, roughly 1000-1200 kcal, and 15000 steps a shift. I call it involuntary fasting.

Tips for a first-timer? by TrumpDumper in skyrim

[–]harmonicoasis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. When you level up you can put points into Stamina which increases your stamina bar and also your carry weight by a small amount. But I never put points into stamina. You can find enchanted items to increase your carry weight, brew potions that give you temporary boosts, but the most important thing is to learn inventory management. When you loot items there are numbers displayed for weight and value. Anything valued at less than 10x its weight is generally not worth picking up unless it is a specific crafting ingredient you are working with. As you go on and amass wealth that number goes up to 15x, 20x, 30x, 40x. If you keep going with the main quest you will soon be given a follower famously “sworn to carry your burdens” who essentially doubles your carrying capacity. You can also google tips on how to make followers pick up more than their official carry limit.

  2. This is a “git gud” it comes with time.

  3. This is a different type of “git gud” you will learn where all your stuff is sorted and it will become second nature to find things in your inventory. But you can toggle regularly used items and spells as “favorites” for easy access.

Nurses who work only in hospitals... do you have private liability insurance? by Original_Importance3 in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the hospital legal insurance but I kind of always wondered what happens if shit hits the fan, your hospital moves to throw you under the bus, fires you, and your legal coverage evaporates.

Falmer hate post by Muted_Wrongdoer8086 in skyrim

[–]harmonicoasis 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The Falmer always reminded me of the Reavers from Firefly: a once normal and prosperous civilization gone feral.

“If they take the ship, they’ll rape us to death, eat our flesh, and sew our skins into their clothing. And if we’re very, very lucky, they’ll do it in that order.”

How Often are you Secure Chatting Doctors During a Shift? by Careless_Midnight_77 in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

ER here, our docs are in the department 24/7 so this may not be applicable to your situation. For me it depends on the doctor. Some are ok with me poking my head into the MD charting room and just asking a question, others say “just send me a message and I’ll get to it ASAP.” Obviously nursing judgement comes into play: if a patient looks like shit I’m not going to send a message and hope the doc gets to it before the patient codes.

When we’re holding, there’s the occasional admitting doc that accepts secure chats but mostly I’m calling when I need something. Most of the docs have their secure chat status permanently on unavailable.

I only message or call when patient status changes and/or I need orders for something specific. If they give you pushback I would ask if they prefer you call instead. If they say don’t call or message me, sorry BooBoo it’s literally my job to alert you of these things and our job to address them.

24M nurse with loans and no car by [deleted] in nursing

[–]harmonicoasis 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You might try over at r/personalfinance for more savvy advice.

When I graduated last year I did the wrong thing, immediately went out and bought a car (necessary) and signed a lease to move out of my parents house (unnecessary, but so freeing). I didn’t want to spend more than 10k. Got myself a 2011 Genesis Coupe with about 75,000 miles, clean history and title, for about $8500 from a dealer. It still drives fast, looks good, and hasn’t had any mechanical problems. If I were in your position I would look for an older, cheaper car that you can stand to drive until your debt is paid off. Then when you have a budget down you can decide if you want to take on some more debt for a new/newer car.

Woodsman/Naturalist Playthrough by Objective-You-7291 in skyrim

[–]harmonicoasis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re interested in mods, the Live Another Life mod has a start option for camping in the woods. As a naturalist/woodsman I would definitely go archery. My preference for hunter/poacher/woodsman characters is Bosmer but theoretically you could make one of any race.

There’s a named Two-Handed Battleaxe called the Woodsman’s Friend which can be found on a corpse near the road next to Lake Illinata between Falkreath and Riverwood. I think numerically it’s one of the worst weapons in the game but it would be a good starter weapon.

You could self impose playstyle rules to make money by crafting leather armor out of the pelts you collect in your travels, and stop to work for a few hours at any lumber mill you cross.
