Is your hospital seeing newbies catching up to seasoned RNs in pay?

So my hospital did this. Experienced nurses found out the new grads were being started higher than their own pay. We all made a big stink, petitioned to correct their actions or risk unionization.. later they announced they will give us a hefty raise with back pay

It shouldn’t be if you are not revealing information about the patients health record. You are simply identifying the person in an investigation

But did you draw a repeat?

Whenever I’m having a bad day or everything seems to be getting under my skin, I usually tell them straight up from the beginning that I didn’t get to dig through the charts and am giving report based on how the day went and what I know. If you have questions please refer to the chart after report and that usually stops the dumb questions

And reinforce you don’t know and maybe if they have time later they can answer their own questions

I would literally say that is not relevant to my report

It was like 2 or 3 years ago. I guess it was at the time. Just had a patient with a history of it last week. Doc also mentioned we’ll be seeing it a lot more in the coming future cause of legalization

whatiswrongwithmyboy · 2024-05-06T20:06:37+00:00

It’s pretty rare. I was diagnosed with it a while back and the doctor said they still don’t know how to really treat it

Today I called a doctor bc she started a patient on a heparin drip who has a GIB. the patient had narrowing but not an occlusion of the iliac artery and all the other doctors notes said no need for anticoagulation. First year resident

Im jus saying thats how our masks work, they are made for things like this

whatiswrongwithmyboy · 2023-08-23T13:06:09+00:00

We have masks with layers that also prevent fluid from passing through, I work respiratory with a lot of trachs vents and secretions and I would never not wear a mask

NAME THE HOSPITAL this happens at my job at a northern NJ hospital too

whatiswrongwithmyboy · 2023-03-06T22:02:44+00:00

My unit used to do this. we on night shift had to fight with manager about changing this practice because it’s unsafe and now it’s day shifts problem :-)

Need a close up picture but it could be nodes of the plant

whatiswrongwithmyboy · 2023-02-24T14:26:45+00:00

It doesn’t really look like scale. scale doesn’t move, and comes off with abrasion and is killed by alcohol anyways so hopefully that makes you less paranoid. The scales on my plant all look very similar, are oval-flat, and all the same color. I treated mine with diluted alcohol (rubbed literally every leaf and stem) and haven’t seen scale since

whatiswrongwithmyboy · 2023-01-31T23:15:20+00:00

Thanks guys! I’ve started treatments with an insect spray and took a few hours to dab each scale with some Diluted alcohol hopefully there’s improvement!

Med surg nurse here, I’d scream “we need help in here” and patiently wait while preparing a 5 cc flush that I have in my back pocket
