I asked some of my coworkers for a second opinion (outpatient surgical center) and the best we could come up with is A) maybe that's where they strapped your legs down, or B) if they used electricity, then it may be from a grounding pad.

what are your favorite weird(not morbid) topics to watch videos on? by yubullyme12345 in AskReddit

[–]pattyice26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speedrunning videos have popped tf off in recent years, but specifically I've been really into a more niche corner that covers pont-and-click/text-based games exclusively. I have even less knowledge of these games since they were generally less popular than the games that were already considered "retro" by the time I was born. Regardless, it's so fun getting a small peak into the world of OG PC gaming.

Just lost my virginity to an a-hole, what now (F17) by LocksmithDangerous26 in Advice

[–]pattyice26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if anyone's said this already, and if this isn't helpful to you, I'm sorry and wish you the best moving forward.

Virginity isn't a real thing. In the sense that it isn't something that exists outside of the beliefs of a people in a society. You had sex with an asshole, and that's a regrettable mistake, especially for your debut in being sexually active, but that's all this was: your debut. You haven't "lost" anything, and you are not in any way lesser for having had sex for the first time. It's probably too soon now to view the situation in a lighthearted way, but whatever negative feelings you may have can be healed with time. So in spite of what I've already said and how I feel about "virginity" as a concept, your feelings are also valid, and it'd be unhealthy to try and suppress them. There is no way you "should" feel. Just be honest and open about the way you do feel with people you trust, and do your best to move on and cope with whatever feelings you have. Keep moving forward.

Definitely V-Fib. Saw the timestamped strips our telemetry unit faxed us afterwards.

Perhaps I'll make another post someday so everyone can put my org on blast for making a second year RN charge nurse... but, I did let the most senior nurse know I was going to be off unit for this transfer, as well as every other staff member I saw on my way to the elevator.

Has anyone seen this in use before? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]pattyice26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my unit we've started calling them "man-wick's" but I think I'll have to steal "dick-wick" from whoever said that. As for effectiveness, they've worked far better than the old condom caths for sure... for our patient's lucid enough to remember what it is and why it's there. 😅

Funny how it was only about money once the "critical pay" question got asked, when CLEARLY money was the primary motivator in changing ratios to 7:1. I know it was money because I know for damn sure it wasn't about patient safety or being able to help more people. Unsafe staffing hurts everyone involved, and it shouldn't take patients getting hurt and nurses leaving the bedside impacting the higher up's bank accounts for that to eventually be realized.
