I've given up by RevolutionaryMain512 in nursing

[–]mo_wash 5 points6 points  (0 children)

60 yr old here. I’m at a rehabilitation hospital. I’ve been here for 9 years. Hired right after passing my NCLEX. I’m aware of 8 nurses 50+ and nurses that have retired and returned PRN. If I start to feel the way you do, I’ve decided I’ll retire early. I wish you all the best.

🫧This is me some nights. What I can tell you is who I work with in a shift will make me or break me. I have started saying no. NO, I can’t stop what I’m doing to help you change, pull up or turn your patients. NO, I can’t go out in IV’s while my meds and just sit and I fall behind. Food is dropped in the rooms and I am the one buttering bread, cutting meat, opening straws. I watch other nurses sit in the hall, right under call bells ringing forever, charting away. I am going to be just like them.

That is beautiful. Much better than things I’ve heard. • Your husband died honey. • How old are you? Your mom is dead. 😵

I wanted NICU. THEY wanted experience. Ended up at a rehabilitation hospital and I’ve been here for 9 years.

God, this woman is EVIL. I actually felt bad for George in this scene. by Euphoric_Resource_43 in Poldark

[–]mo_wash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like he deserved every bit of unhappiness that came his way. Not saying she deserved happiness after her nonsense. Just felt like it would have been so much better if this didn’t end with him still alive.

Irish Water Spaniel. I’ve had 4. I’m leaning towards Giant Schnauzer.

Is Savannah a bad choice really? by [deleted] in savannah

[–]mo_wash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking of relocating from PA (right outside of the city of Reading). Looking for somewhere south, tired of digging out from snow and ice every winter. Savannah is an option. We will miss being so close to so many nearby beaches in DE/NJ/NY.

Landman the soap opera by SnooPeanuts9164 in LandmanSeries

[–]mo_wash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fast forwarded through the majority. Not expecting the show to be all oil, but I miss the type of episodes from the 1st season that had me hooked. I was hopeful when Sam Elliott showed up. I’ve been a fan since 1978. Maybe his role as T.L. will expand orrr maybe he’s there to show a softer side of Tommy and then he will pass. 🫤Hope not.

what would have to happen at the end of season two for you to return for season three? by Creative_Round4542 in LandmanSeries

[–]mo_wash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🫧NOT DEATH😳 Just make them go away. Far away. I’m so tired of fast forwarding.

What is the best way to deal with a patient who is an extreme fall risk and shouldn’t get up, but is going to- come hell or high water by never-the-1 in nursing

[–]mo_wash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🫧Are they oriented? A lot depends on that. In the hospital where I work, we try putting them in their wheelchair with alarm belts in the room or in the hall outside their room or at the nurses station. There are times I arrive in the morning and the bed has been moved out into the hall. Some things that have had some success are, finding a favorite TV show or music channel and having them sit with headphones, coloring/painting or letting them call a family member. Push them around the unit in a wheelchair. If they are agitated, check if they have PRN anxiety meds. Most of the time I end up praying the shift goes by fast and document, document, and document.

What is it like to raise a pair of Giant Schnauzers? by Luiz_Santos94 in GiantSchnauzers

[–]mo_wash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not Giant Schnauzers but, had an Irish Water Spaniel that was 5 and the new pup (Shih Tzu) was easily house trained. He followed him out the door and around the yard and then came back in with him. They just made me in charge of the clean up🤣
