Always be on call with a dedicated line. Just as robur lift trucks does its job to a nicety, the coolie lift trucksare also experts in delivering the best of material handling work. Efficiency and perfection are the two words that have become synonymous with these two equipments. Clever design and smart architecture are what have contributed to such merits. New furniture can be one of the biggest expenses when choosing to redecorate a room in your home. This goes well beyond the paint and curtains to just change the look partially in a room. Many people set a budget for furniture when doing a room redecoration and one of the easiest ways to stay within that budget is to shop online at a furniture warehouse website.

On my NHS round I just keep to the agreed time, and toast the F2 if he doesn't know the patient backwards including the nursing details as to fluid balance, nutrition, domestic circumstances etc. If he doesn't know then he will by the following round. I always make sure that the ward nurses are their MSF delegates.

In ICU we have no actual housekeeper so everyday if we do have patients who can eat we have to phone the kitchens and try and book some meals. They get no choice as we seem to get whats left over.

They are either backward or foreign with no basic grasp of the English language.<br /><br />One of the kitchen staff complained the other week to the matron that we do not take patient nutrition seriously, because we do not leap to the meal trolley with our green pinnies on the minute the bell is rung for protective mealtime.<br /><br />I take patient nutrition as seriously as the next nurse and if I am not handing out meal trays or feeding patients it is for a damn good reason i.e.<br /><br />1) Trying to get up gelofusine on hypotensive patient.<br /><br />2) Obtaining an ECG and vitals on patient with crushing chest pain and a cardiac history.<br /><br />3) Attempting to inform docs that patient's pedal pulses are absent and their leg is now cold and turning blue.<br /><br />I would argue that not taking patient nutrition seriously is wheeling the food trolley back to the kitchen and throwing food into bin, when you are fully aware that the nursing staff have not managed to get around to all 30 patients!<br /><br />Right I've ranted enough for today.

Used to happen to us A...OH MY GOD ANONYMOUS YES!!!<br /><br />Used to happen to us ALL THE TIME when we were a surgical ward.<br /><br />We would have a list of 20 patients to go to theatre. First person on the list would be the first one to go. Last person on this list would be the last one to go. Supposedly.<br /><br />We would ring first thing in the morning and the theatres would assure is that the list was stable.<br /><br />Next thing you know ( 2 minutes later)the porter shows up for patient number 11 on the list and demands to know why he isn't ready. And pulls the nurse and hca away from feeding the other patients to sort the guy out for theatre.<br /><br />So we would just get everyone ready at 0900.<br /><br />Once they came first thing in the morning for number 15 on the list. I didn't see them take him because I was hanging blood on a bleeder. I didn't even know that the guy had been taken to theatre until the anaestatist rang the ward screaming and hollering and wanting to know why patient hadn't had the medication that was prescribed to be given "just as he is leaving the ward for the theatre". The words in quotes are how the order was written. <br /><br />If we don't know when they are going and cannot stand by their bedside all the time and theatres change the order on the list before telling us how will we actually know when they are going to theatre.<br /><br />But seriously. Don't get me started about ambulance transport crews and mealtime. Motherfuckers all of them.Nurse Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05400048448105519082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277229251527832949.post-79812354190237410242010-08-05T12:24:49.820-07:002010-08-05T12:24:49.820-07:00Lets not forget the "theatre club". Love...Lets not forget the "theatre club". Love it when the list gets changed at the last minute and theatre DON'T tell the ward.<br /><br />Low and behold the theatre porter arrives slap bang in the middle of the drug round demanding to know why the patient is not ready and checklist has not been done.<br /><br />End up abandoning drug round and dragging HCA away from feeding breakfast to 90 year old lady to help get patient ready all the <br />while listening to wisecracks from porter about incompetent nurses.<br /><br />Escort patient to anaesthetic room where anaesthetist makes remark (in front of patient!) along the lines of "what took you so long."<br /><br />Hence you are made to feel like a complete moron and any confidence the patient has in you has been completely eroded!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277229251527832949.post-59324024063337602022010-08-05T08:45:15.516-07:002010-08-05T08:45:15.516-07:00Oh they do snap their fingers.

They don't care what that lone Nurse is in the middle of, they don't care what is going on with her patients. They show up for rounds (we have no idea when they are coming so we cannot plan for it) and expect the Nurse to immediately drop what she is doing to follow them about. <br /><br />Ambulance transport crews, social workers,porters, psychiatrists visitors,crisis team workers, managers, etc do the exact same thing to the Nurse at mealtime. <br /><br />Everyone thinks that the Nurse exists to service them and that is why the Nurse never gets an uninterrupted moment in her day to do her job.<br /><br />Ambulance crews are the worst. The worst. They show up and expect a red carpet to be rolled out for them so that they can keep to their schedule. Must be nice to only have to deal with one patient at a time. And they don't give a shit about the fact that the Nurse they are dumping on has 20 patients.Nurse Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05400048448105519082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277229251527832949.post-35534101572941022010-08-05T07:05:40.682-07:002010-08-05T07:05:40.682-07:00PS if anybody snapped their fingers at me I'd ...PS if anybody snapped their fingers at me I'd verbally eviscerate them.

I don't want to use my PEG for nutrition yet - although it's incredibly valuable for fluids and meds - but after a few days of watching your plate of food cool and congeal, occasionally actually having it removed untouched after the statutory 20 minutes... well, pass the Fortisip, I give up. It's depressing.<br /><br />Nurses couldn't believe their eyes when a registrar friend dropped in to say hello and ended up staying and feeding me - I don't think that ward had ever seen such a thing.<br /><br />It's no fun being profoundly impaired and in hospital.Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15436653419185638854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277229251527832949.post-49909414201799173612010-08-04T15:30:05.661-07:002010-08-04T15:30:05.661-07:00Good for Charlotte - now she needs to send an inci...Good for Charlotte - now she needs to send an incident report of inappropriate physician behavior to administration.
