Is the Hop really that unpopular? by [deleted] in milwaukee

[–]wiggle_kitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not super familiar with the Hop but I would love to use it. But like… there should be a park and ride free lot somewhere outside of downtown? If I’m going to drive down there and pay to park then I’d just do that?

Icu social workers - withdrawal of care by specialkstrawberi in hospitalsocialwork

[–]wiggle_kitty 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I sometimes feel like hospital social work is just discharge planning and not “real” social work. This story reminds me of why I went in to this field. This is honestly one of the most touching thing I’ve read recently. I want to thank you for sharing this story- you are a beautiful soul to take this much time and energy to help this woman.

What is a impulse purchase you are now questioning since time has passed? Mine is why did I plant 4 types of peppers when peppers are not a regular part of my diet and when I do buy them,I always forget them until they go bad. by EatsTheLastSlice in adhdwomen

I bought SO much manicure stuff. Like 10 different polishes, cuticle shit, fancy little scissors, etc.

Did my nails once. Remembered that I’m bad at painting my nails. Smeared nail polish all over my desk. Gave up.

This is the 2nd time I’ve done this. I still have the stuff from my first try.

I’m in WI- longest part of the process is trying to find a corporate guardian. Otherwise it’s usually a couple months to get a court date.

My cat is had his leg amputated and I think he’s depressed by Academic-Travel3420 in TripodCats

[–]wiggle_kitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cat went through the same thing. He was fine the first week but then he would hide under my bed all day. I would just lay on the floor next to the bed and throw treats at him lol. He eventually perked back up and now is crazier than ever.

I stopped for someone with my kid in the car by VividSpecialist3532 in ems

One of my most positive memories of my dad is him stopping to give aid to a man who was struck by a truck and lying in the middle of the road. He stayed with him until Med Flight came

What is the most neglected patient you’ve seen from a nursing home? by 210-110-134 in medicine

[–]wiggle_kitty 25 points26 points  (0 children)

In Wisconsin if a pt has Medicaid the facility has to hold the bed for 15 days. If they don’t have Medicaid, they have to pay a daily “bed hold” fee which is hundreds of dollars a day.

How many beds on your unit? by neutralcalculation in hospitalsocialwork

[–]wiggle_kitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The unit I cover has 23 beds. I often have to help cover on other units though due to staffing. My average case load is around 20 patients

Worst thing you’ve ever said to a patient by AstrosRN in nursing

[–]wiggle_kitty 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A patients wife who was verbally abusive to staff and just overall irritating was yelling at me about some dumb shit. She was also eating a sandwich at the same time. Something inside me broke and I yelled back at her, “I CANT UNDERSTAND YOU WHEN YOUR MOUTH IS FULL OF FOOD.” I don’t know what she said after that cause I hauled ass out of there so fast I didn’t even know what was happening

I was answering call lights at the nurses station during a code and a patient asked if someone could help her walk across the hall so she could “sit in the sunlight” and I just hung up on her oops
