I have only been awake ten minutes and get given a free shot at goal. Its gonna be a good day...apart from having to go to work though apparently its only a short shift while a couple of nurses are at a grand rounds lecture.Right on fuckin cue...![]()
Nah not in charge. Just basically got to keep shit moving while a couple of people go to a lecture. Unfortunately anything remotely recreational is locked up and requires two nurses to get out of the safe and count the stock and sign off on it.Are you in charge of the ward for the shift C? If its only a couple of hours and there are no critical situations I would just administer best option chill out PRN's until the regs get back from school.
Prob why I'm not fit to practise any more.
Same rules apply to MH nurses here too. Its law that all the good stuff has to be dispensed, counted after every time something is taken and signed for by two nurses. They have started to bring in machines that dispense the drugs now too and they require two nurses fingerprints to use so even further reducing any chance of dodgy stuff happening. I wouldn't do it anyway as my doctor will give me anything i need and i couldn't work under the influence of anything stronger than coffee. I would hate to fuck up and make a medication error or something. Anyway got to go get ready.I imagine, but you're a real nurse isn't it. In mental health we could just dole out benzos and neuroleptics all the time. Mickey mouse nurses the rest of the profession called us and they were right. Just drink tea all day, talk shit with the patients and put up with the occasional black eye following a scrap...
