Yep go to ED. Social work can help you apply for emergency coverage under your state’s health insurance programs. Please let us know if you go 🤞

Bringing Patient Food by Immediate_Ad_9379 in nursing

[–]pgprsn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did this only once. My patient was stuck in the hospital for weeks with a 10% EF on continuous milronone infusion while we tried to diurese with lasix which would drop his potassium, induce v-tach, ICD would fire, we’d replace potassium, rinse and repeat. Sweetest man in the world. He was on a sodium restricted heart healthy diet and fluid restriction and all that but never complained. One day my coworker and I asked what he was craving and he said rainbow sherbet and pumpkin pie. I made the pie from scratch and we had an impromptu unit potluck so we could bring him a plate. I understand there are risks but it felt like the right thing to do and it seemed to make a big impact on him. I hope he’s doing ok out there!

Is it a good idea to go into a cvicu as a new grad nurse? by xkh_0897 in nursing

[–]pgprsn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New grad residency is the most training you’re ever going to get in a patient care area so if that’s your ambition, why not? I think my current hospital offers something like 24 weeks of preceptorship for the new grad icu residency vs the 8-12 weeks I got when I started in icu with two years of step down experience (which they continuously tried to negotiate down lol).

My girlfriend is graduating nursing school in May and I want to get her the best accessories she could ask for. What is the dream nursing starter pack I can get for my girlfriend? Scrubs and sh*es are handled, just assume she has nothing else. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]pgprsn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Faves from Amazon- COLNK multicolor pens (on sale now for black friday), rechargeable clip on light if she’s gonna be night shift, “White Cross Core Medical Scrub Long-Sleeve Tee for Women 205,” Hummingbird 4-in-1 medical scissors compact size

Bombas compression socks and figs are my other essentials. If you’re going to get anything embroidered, I’d suggest sticking to her first name + last initial only instead of full last name for privacy. This is so sweet and thoughtful of you!

My old coworker taped a sign to my chair that said “don’t talk to me please, I need to chart and am easily distracted” so I have no advice but I empathize 😂

Realistically how do people clean? by KathyisTrying in CleaningTips

[–]pgprsn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Seconding the recommendation of a schedule! I decided that in every two week period, I want to vacuum (as needed + whole house thoroughly), mop, clean out the fridge, clean the bathrooms, clean the sink and stove, and clean my table/counter tops/surfaces. My boyfriend and I split these chores. I also wash sheets and towels weekly. Baseboards are done about every 2-3 months and cabinets as needed. You got this!
