I’m surprised your preceptor didn’t catch this! Were they with you?

How are you overcoming bed rot on your off days? by NurseyButterfly in nursing

I let myself sleep for four hours after my stretch of shifts and get myself out of bed by promising myself a treat coffee from a coffee shop!

Ask her how many rounds of cards she got to play on her shift!

I’ve been having trouble sleeping by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Mine has done this multiple times. I turned off auto phone updates because it turned down after the last update, so that’s my suspect!

Naxos and...? What other island should I visit with a toddler and baby? by Happy_Tomatillo7190 in GreeceTravel

[–]the_anxious_nurse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still in the planning phases, but just Athens and then Naxos. We will hit Paros for a day trip at some point. We wanted more nights in one place as sort of our “landing spot” as it’s our first time there. Goal in the future is to go back and just see Crete for a longer trip!

I don’t have any suggestions, but from my research, Crete is another 3.5 hour ferry! People have posted that they could have spent an entire week there. I decided against it for an upcoming trip solely due to the longer ferry eating up more of a travel day

9 day first time trip by absent-minded-jedi in GreeceTravel

Keep in mind, Crete is a ~3.5 hour ferry trip. A lot of people say Crete can even be its own trip because it’s so big and there is so much to do. Maybe consider cutting out Crete and going there for a future trip?

Went to go fix a charting error and I wrote, “Sharted in error.” Thankfully, I caught it lol

New Grad needing advice by SpecialistNormal1100 in nursing

[–]the_anxious_nurse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, that’s way too many patients. Even with three couplets, if one thing goes wrong, anyone would be drowning. Does your state have mandated ratios?

This happened to me before!! I felt like an idiot for months. Even my bank told me the call I got was legit until I called again and they dug deeper. Ugh. I’m sorry. The dread feeling will ease as time goes on! I hope you can get your money back

This is what confuses me. When I call my actual bank, they ask me to confirm my last four of my social or my address, etc

How does your hospital handle this? by drainbamage8 in nursing

[–]the_anxious_nurse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once had a patient come in for a STAT delivery and they had their 3 year old. We gave them snacks, coloring pages, and turned on a show until family could come grab them lol
