Originally posted by narcism always good to file an incident report with these things, i spend half my shift writting the fucking things.....nothing major will happen to the nurse i dont think, ive seen people give ketamine instead of ketorlac, completely different drugs/ completely and utterly wrong Its always good to document everything that happened and everything you done, ie. writting down the patients bsl's everytime you took them ect issues like this will happen throughout your career and you should never feel obliged to stick up for anyone...that shit doesnt sit well in the coroners court (if that ever eventuates)

Yep. I ALWAYS document everything I do.


I guess the thing with this job is that I'm just a student, and I'll never be able to find such a good opportunity anywhere else. But then, what are they gonna fire me for? Doing my job? LoL.

I just don't want to get raped for hours. Honestly, this place is so fucking shady.

Good job Ms Pie, you did the right thing. I was in a similar situation when I was working a part time doorman position . I noticed the handyman in the building we worked in was one lazy douche. He would constantly tell me that if anyone asked for him tell them that he's busy working in an apartment. He especially used this to his advantage when the superintendent was away on vacation. I finally had enough of the shit and reported him to the building Manager who just happens to be a serious Jewish man and it really worked to my advantage.

He was suspended for 2 weeks with no pay, the union is what helped him from getting fired. My last day of work in that place he waited in the lobby for me. I tightened up my fist thinking this guy wanted to throw the hands, but he just wanted to vent. I'll never forget his words "I can't believe you fucking did that? what the fuck did I ever do to you?"
He was probably expecting a long winded explanation from me, I just walked past him and simply replied in a calm low tone "go fuck yourself"
Sorry for the long story, lazy people piss me the fuck off.

Yes. But I honestly don't know how it works because I'm a student. There's 3 of us (students) working there right now, and the best thing we can do to protect ourselves is follow the best practice guidelines.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't given at all, actually. And if she and the other student WERE giving insulin...the only extra pen in the fridge was filled with Novorapid.

Fucking idiots.

Are you sure the nurse didn't give the patient an analgesic the "wrong" way?

welp now i know no who NOT to trust if im ever doing a shinding

Originally posted by jennypie An ethical thread I guess. This weekend at work I discovered a HUGE mistake, actually a lie, that one of nurses made. Thing is, she's the charge nurse. I was hesitant to write her up, because I feared that I would get less hours for exposig her mistake (yes, it's like that at my work). But then I thought, "No, I have a duty to the residents' safety first and foremost, and if I don't report this I will also be liable". So I wrote her and the other nurse who made the same mistake/lie. Actually, I tried to not point the finger as much as possible...but it was pretty hard not to. So anyways, I feel good about doing the right thing...but now I'm scared to see her next...or even what's going to happen at work. This is the kind of shit that our facility can get sued for, and the charge nurse can lose her licence. Anything like this ever happen to any of you?

yeah, be carefuly jenny. it doesn't get any better the further you go up the nursing ladder, let me tell you

As someone who's had a relative in the hospital recently, allbeit for a routine operation I know i'd rather a nurse was honest about something like this and if I was the patients rellie and found out, I'd totally buy you dinner for doing the right thing.

Well, if you're making the joke I think you're making...technically it isn't "wrong" to administer an analgesic anally. If the patient is vomiting, then rectally is the actually the best route. Well, provided there's no diarrhea.
