As The Hospital Pervs-- It's Overtime Time

[sweepthefloor]

Today at my desk the nurses are discussing the no difference between free-based cocaine and crack type cocaines.

 

[sweepthefloor]

I want to brush my teeth.

 

[sweepthefloor]

These office nurses want to 'walk' on lunch break for exercises. I'm like bitches I'm working TICU this weekend and I'll have my 7,000 steps by noon. I'll just sit here and play with myself instead, thanks.

Today we are just cleaning up vomit.

Should I throw a glass bottle of diprivan on the floor to see how much force is needed to break it?

Nah. Sell it. You're a nurse, you need the money.

My job had some excitement last week. We tried a new matrix bone graft. Party!!

My friend at the bank told me she regularly wanders into the ladies room and rubs one off. I became somewhat jealous, actually.


Happy Sunday!!!


I'm home grabbing lunch and then it's back to work. Side jobs today - the best kind, really.

Bones are exciting!

It used to be common practice to ‘back-up’ every drip gtt gtt gtt for the night shift because no nurse wants to suddenly find a line gone dry, a blood pressure tanking, or the patient waking up in a confused rage tied to the bed with tubes in every orifice. It always felt great to say at the end of the report, all your drips are backed-up. We do not do it anymore because some nurse left a full Fentanyl 1250mcg/100ml at the desk and it was big trouble.

I hope she washes her hands! The money is dirty.

Happy Tuesday! Any kind of side work where you get to go home for lunch is the best kind, really.

My last facility had a 24 hour limit on all lines. From NSS to Morphine the lines had to be trashed within that time frame.

What a fucking waste.

Happy March!!!


It's a mortgage operation, so it's checks, and she may answer the phones. Still, she should wash her pretty little hands.


I'd like to be able to come home for lunch more often, but then there's that get-back-out-the-door bit, and that might be harder in the afternoon.

It is a big fucking waste of time and supplies. I can see trashing intermittent tubing but not the continuous infusions. The tubing will get changed when the bag runs empty fuckers. I have not been written up yet. I am not doing the waste paperwork.

Internal paddles are the sexiest.

i love joules.

 

[Jennifer]

i love joules.

Yes! Joules make me Ohm.

 

[sweepthefloor]

I miss working bedside full-time. Luckily, I am still putting in PRN shifts and get to remember why I left direct care.

 

[sweepthefloor]

It is so shocking.

I want a jump start.

Ohm Ohm Ohm Ohm Ohm yeah

I haven't done direct patient care for 18 years and have never missed it. I'm much better as an administrative nurse. Kudos to all of you who can do it and embrace it.

Blech. I have worked in the OR for 12 years for a reason. I hate patient care.

I am no Nightingale.

Nor am I. Although I still respond to codes when called. Nothing like breaking a few ribs every now and again.

thanks girls



I remain PRN two or three shifts a month but I won’t be able to keep that up forever. It’s a sad story because I truly do love working at the bedside in critical care. I do not have a long term plan but I know case management is not part of it!

I guess it is a combination of reasons and I figured it would be the same everywhere, so I went from the trauma intensive care unit to…. case management. It does not make any sense except I thought to myself: they are going to pay me more money, to do less work, I will be home for dinner every night and no weekend or holiday requirement. I accepted the position.

critical care clinical skill set experience including but not limited to:


it's true i can't take the desk. i won't make it. i can't survive it. i was tired but i am ready to go back.
