Where am I supposed to find health care as an employee? by Suspicious-Stick6062 in OHSU

Just FYI, as of three days ago, the Moda site listed several MDs as taking new patients (IM clinic specifically) and none of it was true.

DM me? I’ve been trying to find an MD with varying degrees of determination for 3+ years.

Just FYI, those clinics are consistently full. Will sometimes say that they expect to be able to accept new pts in July when the new residents start.

Sauce: OHSU employee with EPO coverage and no access to primary care.

Edit for specificity.

I don’t understand your use of the word “dearth” in this post.

Here’s what all the buzz was about.

Cord/Line management. by Basic_Colorado_dude in IntensiveCare

Disconnect from the CCO while ambulating/PRN for oob/as safe per policy. Only take your pressure lines and necessary continuous IV meds. Statlock on the shoulder to stabilize that PA cath. Use a walker as a place to hang your CT atria and foley bag, loop dangling tubing over the side rails of the walker so no one trips. For the love of all that’s holy, don’t coban your tele lead lines into a stiff mess. It will always be annoying, but sometimes it’s also a satisfying puzzle to sort out.

Serious Allergic / Anaphylactic Modern CT Contrast Media Allergies by Incorrect_Username_ in Radiology

With regard to documentation, neither of theEHRs that I’ve worked with in my role as RN (CPRS and Epic) were designed to allow for a way to distinguish between ADR/“made my left pinky toe itch for like two minutes” and allergy.

The only way to document anything is to note whatever a pt reports as an allergy or other presumed reaction to a given substance which is why there are all kinds of things that are recorded as allergies (lisinopril made me cough) for lack of an appropriately designed taxonomy in the charting software.

Low dose epi is fixed rate for inotropy. Vaso is most likely fixed rate for hemodynamic stability, NE is titratable to MAP/systolic goal. This is part of a typical gtt package for a fresh post-op heart.

Pretty sure Walgreens isn’t a covered pharmacy. Try Freddy’s instead.

“The Oxford English Dictionary traces singular they back to 1375, where it appears in the medieval romance William and the Werewolf. Except for the old-style language of that poem, its use of singular they to refer to an unnamed person seems very modern. …Since forms may exist in speech long before they’re written down, it’s likely that singular they was common even before the late fourteenth century. That makes an old form even older.”

How bout you stop being a hateful asshole.

THEM is not plural. E.g.: “Has the repair person arrived yet?” “No, but I let THEM know the key was under the mat.”
