šš»āāļøāThe Doctor told me to keep the pit on when there was tachysystole. What can I chart to protect myself in court?ā If youāve been around, you might remember when I was writing "Shifting the Pitocin Paradigm" I asked you all here, what big burning questions you had. What tripped them you up or made work hard when it came to Pitocin? And this was one of the top responses. Whew....deep breath. The hard truth is, if your involved in a lawsuit, a patient was hurt. And there's nothing you can document that will help if you negligentl continue pit ...even when a doc is pressuring you. The standard of care doesn't let us as nurses to knowingly continue down an unsafe path. But letās delve into what the question is really expressing: "I know this is unsafe and I'm worried my patient is going to get hurt". That's a really scary thought. It feels more comfortable to be on the defensive, to think we need to protect ourselves. Just chart a "per MD order" & call it good. But the standard of care & our licensure, demands we embrace the role of pt advocate & lean into this feeling. Start with a conversation with the provider & express your concerns. If it doesnāt work, ultimately this is what the chain-of-command is for. Not comfortable, I know, but there's a reason we have it. And guess what? Youāre already in an uncomfortable positionā¦ Itās a lot. But weāll get into it, plus documentation, Pitocin, legal systems, fetal monitoring, all the uncomfortable & difficult stuff we run into on the floor in Reasonable & Prudent: Lawsuit- (and Worry!)Proofing Your Practice. You read right! Itās opening back up for a special LIVE 6 week round. Its been in the works for awhile, but wanted to make sure it was actually a thing the world needed. Iāve tinkered. Iāve tweaked. Iāve gotten rid of what doesnāt serve and added in MORE of what will. We start June 17th. Waitlist open now. šhttps://www.jenatkisson.com/live-r&p #awhonn #labornurse #laboranddeliverynurse #nurseeducator #BIRTHNURSE #pitocin #newnurse #oldnurse

40 years of nursing... I retired Wednesday after working just shy of 40 years at the same institution and here are some of my take aways... 1.Never forget why you're there, to take care of the sick and injured people in your community. 2.Never let a doctor make you cry. A good share of them were bullied as children and those who weren't probably should have been. 3.No one ever died from charting something twice. 4.It's ok to push Lasix fast (ain't time for that) 5.Don't be afraid to ask a cop if his mom knows he's out this late (keeps it real) 6.No one dies alone, EVER. 7.Undress your patient for F sake, you'll be surprised what you find. It's your job to "find" these things. It may be a remote control under a boob, or a stab wound to the flank, you can't see either if they're dressed. 8.You'll make lifelong ride or die friends that you will cherish just like family. They are a gift. 9.You'll also develop relationships that are mistaken for the same, as hurtful as recognizing the difference is, you also will learn from these. 10.When patients lie to you (and they will), it's not personal. It's not about you. 11.For God's sake, if you don't know the arm drop test, learn it. (and use it so you don't say something you shouldn't because you think they're unconscious) 12. I regret nothing, loved (almost) every minute of my nursing career. It's all I ever wanted to be since I was in 3rd grade. I feel so lucky, to have been mentored by Kathy Ryckeghem and Sue Beswick, 2 absolute treasures. 13. Turn off the O2 before you light your patient's cigarette. #oldnurse #finallyretired #nurseproud #nurselifern

Remember when I said you didnāt need another documentation course?! Funny enough-he-he- I made a documentation courseš³ āOkay, Jen, then why did you make it when you said you never would?ā, well hereās the thingā¦ Is documentation the #1 thing that keeps patients safe and you from being involved in a malpractice suit? No. Nope. Itās not even listed as a cause of pt injury by the Joint Commission. Itās tempting to use documentation as a scapegoat when we have fears around pt harm and lawsuits (āIt must be the documentation!ā). Know what? It makes sense that itās confusing! Not because documentation is inherently difficult, its because we get mixed messages all. the. time. Along with the mixed messages, we also get scary messages all. the. Time (āitās all you have to defend yourself!!ā Youāre powerful! Youāre the #1 thing that keeps pts safe in the hospital! I do still stand by the belief most nurses know how to chart just fine, but its still the #1 thing I get questions about. Just last week in an EFM class, a student told a story of a very intense nurses station debate on her unit, every one with strooong opinions. Its taking up a lot of mental space. So here we areā¦I made a class, with how to chart according to the SOC, when to chart, how to chart to āpt outcomes & prevent trauma, as well as a compilation of all the weird, random situations that seem tricky (like a patient declining something for example). But, the name isn't setā¦ I even noodled on it with some friends and this is the best we came up with.

In February 1982, I graduated from San Joaquin Delta College with an Associate degree in Nursing. Later, while working, I graduated from Saint Mary's College of California with a BA in Health Services Administration, in 1995. I was privileged to practice nursing as an RN for 38 years. I first worked in an Oncology clinic and then in an OB/GYN clinic for a couple of years. Then, I enjoyed working in geriatrics and long-term care for several years. Primarily, I worked in our community hospital. I enjoyed working in Med/Surg, Pediatrics, Pain Management, Nursing Management and Case Management. I treasure the most amazing memories!ā¤ļø #tbt #nursing #nursingcareer #RN #oldnurse
Labor Nursing can be so rewarding and so challenging.. It has been crazier than normal recently. So Iām gonna cope partially by sharing my feelings. So here is my first ever written Poem!!

Fetal Demise for a Nurse Iām sorry you had to see me today Iām sorry we met like this The loss of all hope in your eyes As I tell you what this is I try to explain the process So nothing is a surprise I know that you are in pain This situation I despise Now I have to help you do The one thing neither of us want I use your babies name when we talk I try to be nonchalant We talk about baby colors to make the silence end I talk to you and comfort you Though I know Iām not your friend I coach you when to push I tell you when to breath Your agonizing cry breaks my heart When you feel that sudden relief Poem by Liz RN (ME) MombieRN.com #landdnursesatyourcervix #landdnurses #landdnurse #labornursesrock #labornursemama #mombiern #newnurse #oldnurse #nurseblog #nursebloggers #lpn #rn #rnlife #lpnlife #mommyblogger #mommyblog #labornurse #nursessupporttheiryoung #nursesofinstagram #rnofinstagram #registerednurse #momsofinstagram #fetaldemise #infantloss #momsofangels
Florence was straight up wild!! It is no wonder she is the founder of modern nursing.. JK! Our patients may not remember our name. Some may even treat us like we are a personal slave. But in their true time of need, we will be who they are yelling out for. Our job is to comfort our patients, we get to know them sometime too personally.. But caring for them is why we went into the profession. Sometimes I need to remind myself that, because most patients do not make our jobs #labornurse #labornursemama #mombiern #landdnursesatyourcervix #landdnurses #nightnurse #nursesofinstagram #nurse #nurses #labornursesrock #newnurse #oldnurse #nurseblog #nursebloggers #lpn #rn #rnlife #lpnlife #registerednurse #registerednurses
The Unit Meeting is back on April 7th! April we are looking at Fetal Monitoring research and have we picked two super important, yet commonly overlooked research articles. If you're into simultaneously having your mind blown, but also feel like "wow! everything makes soooo much more sense" when it comes to the much misunderstood (and misutilized) fetal heart monitor...then this is the month for you!! We'll answer such questions like: wtf do they mean when people say "the fetal reserve" and wtf do we have that nonsense of a Category 2? "The Fetal Reserve Index Significantly Outperforms ACOG Category System" 2019 by Evans et. al. "A framework for standardized management of intrapartum fetal heart rate patterns" 2007 by Parer & Ikeda <-----this one comes with a serving of NICHD gossip and how we standardized EFM nomenclature...I know..so exciting. $15, 1.5 CE's, but you do need to access the articles on your own through google or through your hospital, etc. About us: It may seemJen and Paula didn't get the memo that after grad school, there's no requirement to go late-night rabbit hole diving when it comes to research articles...but they did get the memo and just don't care. The upside: we really know how to critically review the literature. We believe this is a skill that can help nurses reclaim their power and make an impact on their units and the care patients receive. Contact hours provided by Jen Atkisson.

Then they hit the flooršš»āāļøand us experienced nurse, disillusioned by our experiencesš , feel we need to make them realize what itās really like. So, we grab our š“ and we get ready for dinner. We need to break this habit. The old thatās how I was trained and now I know what Iām doing so it must work idea! Well it doesnāt work, so letās put down the cutlery and step away from the new grads!! Letās envelop them in our protective nurse arms (not literally) and letās make them feel safe with us. Let them know they have back up. The patientsš„Ŗ and hospital adminš will make sure they get the idea that healthcare is hard. Donāt forget to follow me here for more nurse infoš©š»āāļø, mom infoš©āš¦, Labor infoš¤°, and more!! Check out my blog when it launches next week!!
As an experienced nurseš, let me tell you that I have learned so much from every member of my team!! I have learn numerous skills that help me in my practice daily from my previous CNAs! As a profession, healthcare puts us in tiers based on our education levels. This causes a divide at times where people in higher tiers think they canāt learn anything or are in someway superior to those people in the the tiers below them. This is not the case! We need to break down those tiers and work together as members of the same team! When we build a good relationship with out support staff, it improves the teamās dynamics and makes for a better working environment!! Thank you to all the CNAs and Techs in my career!!š©šļøāāļø Who have taught me how to turn a patient when you donāt have many people to help you, how to change a brief with the patient on the toilet without taking off their pants, and other important nurse life skills..

āØon my ownāØ A few thoughts on going through orientation, againā¦ -a lot of people will think you are a new nurse and try to explain things. This can be good and bad. -be patient with yourself when you donāt know things right away. -take charge of your own learning. No one knows what you know and donāt know. -some preceptors suck. Ask for the ones you like. -your workflow will change and change again when your preceptors change. Have patience with these changes and expectations. -you donāt have to be excited to work on a new floor. Youāre burnt out. Give yourself grace. At least you showed up. -you will have to break old habits that youāve built. -Find people you can trust and count on. Especially on a floor where most people are new nurses (no offense but new nurses donāt know anything) -trust your gut -you will learn a lot of new things and you will have to spend some time off work debriefing. -work culture on a new floor can be completely different and you may not like it but you are here now for at least the next year so just accept that itās your new reality. I need to get my hair doneā¦ If you read all this, thanks!! Iām nervous and surprisingly excited to be on my own. (Although I was on my own for half the day yesterday) Do you have any tips for being on a new floor?? Iād gladly take šš¼ #oldnurse #newnurse #orientation #nurse #medicine #nursingstudent #nursingschool #rn #nursepractitionerstudent #nursesofinstagram #health #doctor #hospital #confidence #confidencebooster #worktips #workingrn
and it is that I am still afraid of it, and it is that I prefer not to look, and it is that I prefer to lock it up in that double glass box, humans are wrong but it is human to improve, to be better every day and allow ourselves to attempt ā¦. hate is for the "what would have happened if" a tear of a coward ā¦ . . . . . . . . . . #thoughts #quotes #photography #photographer #nature #tree #leaves #wildernessculture #oldnurse #charlygr
