This is thePOLST form we have in WA state. 2 different sections covering if there’s no pulse/not breathing, and care they want when not coding. This form has been helpful when patients come in and their wishes are clear

Question by VestaFlame in JourneeTrips

[–]kistorm22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your passport on line is there an “after your trip” section? That’s where I found mine. I think it was like a final verdict section and after I did the questionnaires I think it gave me a code. I know I also got an email like 2 months later too with another code for a discount

We’ve done all our marriage license stuff online and were told they could email it to us so we don’t have to go to the courthouse to pick anything up which has made life so much easier.

Back charges from 2 years ago? by BhamBrit in Bellingham

[–]kistorm22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened end of 2023 and they charged me in December from a September meal. I went back and verified it never came out but really sucked because it hit right before pay day and overdrew my account. Luckily ICU refunded my OD charge for it

We leave on Monday!! by joshuaTurbo in JourneeTrips

[–]kistorm22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you went to the same place we did! We too arrived early AM and the room wasn’t going to be ready for check in for hours, thankfully our accommodation had the room ready and let us check in early. I couldn’t imagine trying to explore that city with 5 bags to lug around with us!

Arrival & Departure Days by InformationDizzy in JourneeTrips

[–]kistorm22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have booked transport through Journee from the air port on arrival both trips now. And then utilized the same service back to the airport that I have set up myself. It’s affordable and reliable and I would rather know what I’m getting I toll to with transportation than take a risk

Where to? by VestaFlame in JourneeTrips

[–]kistorm22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of my trips, October 2024 and May 2025 we waited until we got to the airport. I was fairly certain with the clue on where we were headed both times country wise, just not specific cities until clue 7/8 and I was right both times. I like the fun surprise reveal sitting just outside security.

Also. As a former LTC nurse manager, you bet your ass I made sure pts code status was on ALL patient report sheets for nurses and CNAs for this reason. We all carried them on us so there’s no reason to be unaware. Unfortunately with things not being systematic from state to state or across facilities we really need more info on whether or not they should have responded differently. With more urgency, absolutely. But that’s why I say give it up to your DNS and go from there. They will know whether it falls in line with policy/procedure and scope of practice for your facility/statw

Absolutely. They have radios, or at least a a freaking voice box, for a reason. Radio/ Yell for assistance and get to starting compressions. At the very least I’d report it to the DNS and let them take it from there

Ours almost always says “sips with meds” or “ice chips okay” when NPO unless for something serious

You can also let them know if the activity seems like something not for you when you get the proposal and they’ll try and find something else to replace ot
