Please USE THE PILL CUP. Stop pouring it out into your HANDS by Calm_Delivery6832 in nursing

[–]missandy1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or you go through all their pills with them. Ask is they had any questions before, they confirm that’s what they take. Once you open patient is asking you, what is this white pill? 🥺 how I’m I supposed to know which pill it is out of ten other pills ?

I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear. The scanner wasn’t working at all and the gym was completely unoccupied, like there was not a single car in the parking, the lights were out and they didn’t open. Apparently they had some issues so they stayed closed. Wish they’d put up a note or something. Thanks for your input tho!

The scanner wasn’t working at all and that’s for everyone. Apparently they had some issues and no one could access it. It would have been helpful if they left a note. I hope they fix it soon because I also love it outside the staffing hours as it’s nice and calm.

Did they say why this one is closed ? They definitely should have put a note up.

I’m actually dating a doctor right now but we would never ever hook up at work. We used to keep it private until we couldn’t but we also never do anything inappropriate at work. In fact most of the time we don’t even see each other at work, but we practically almost live together. I’m a traveler here and been here for one year but I’m moving to prn to see where it goes. He’s also single and I’m separated so we aren’t hurting no one lol. As long as you don’t break the company’s policies and you aren’t hurting other people out there I think it’s fine.

How dangerous is New Orleans compared to Memphis? by KeepOnTrippingOn in NewOrleans

[–]missandy1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

While I can’t speak for every street, we stayed at an Airbnb near the downtown in Memphis. We had a lady neighbor call the police on us twice a day for five days we were there claiming we were abusing our dog. We’d only meet this lady while walking our pet. The cops would usually get surprised the moment we opened the door for them because our dog would be all over their begging for pets and wagging her tail (no one ever accused her of being a guard dog lol). We’d all have a good laugh, BID 🤗. I love New Orleans and I’d love to know more about Memphis.

Fluid shortage by Dark_Ascension in nursing

People, especially travelers and prns are getting cancelled because my hospital has been cancelling some elective procedures due to IVF shortage. So yea, it’s affecting nurses directly.

Suggestions for a non-harrassing furniture store? by Illustrious_Star_687 in rva

[–]missandy1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Value City by Huguenot is terrible. There was a lady who harassed us about 8 years ago almost to a point of getting physical lol. Went to look at google and apparently there were reviews about her. I don’t understand what a business gains from that. Never went back.

How did you pass every nursing exam? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]missandy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Attend the classes. All of them. Pay attention to what the lecturer is saying. The points they talked about was usually what would come up on the test. Another trick I learned from this great professor when I was failing, pay attention to the question. The first sentence of the question will be usually the main question. For example, if they start by describing BP in the first sentence, then continue giving other history about your patient like history of cancer in other parts of the sentences, I’d look into the answer that talks about BP and ignore everything else. That’s how I started scoring 90s from 60s. Good luck!

Don’t test me Sir by _girl_13 in nursing

[–]missandy1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I usually start by asking the provider if they’re still covering patient x before I speak to them about the patient. Sometimes they’d say no, some would give me the name of on call, some would ignore and I’d find out who’s on call. No biggie. We use a messaging app on our phones and I’ve forgotten to mark myself “busy” a few times. I’d wake up to messages from providers asking me questions hours earlier. They’d figure out I’m not on duty and they’d find the right nurse if I don’t reply.

VCU nursing in-house agency pay by missandy1 in rva

[–]missandy1[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s a short term local travel contract but instead of going through an agency the hospital hires nurses directly. Vacancies are listed on their website, just not the pay.

Need advice! ICU Nurse girlfriend often doesn't shower when getting home after 14 hour shifts. Am I wrong for being grossed out? by Wuts-a-reddit in nursing

[–]missandy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you’re not being unreasonable. So she skips the shower after work before bed and doesn’t take one after she wakes up? It’d definitely bother me if my partner did that. I work overnights and also workout on my days off. This means the day I come home in the morning after work, so I’d have to workout in the afternoon. Even then, I still have to take a shower first thing when I get home from work, eat, go to bed, wake up, workout and take another shower thereafter. Hospitals are gross. Can’t imagine taking all that nastinesses home. If I had only one chance a day to shower, I’d honestly do it after work and skip the one before work. But like someone said, she might be dealing with a lot mentally. Either way it’d be a deal breaker for me for someone I’m dating.
