@Terihaynes@RNSuperHero Maybe he hasn’t hit you but if his words or behavior have made you think “I wish he’d just hit me” it’s time to go. Find your strength, get quietly pissed the fuck off. Narcissistic abuse will tear you to pieces and destroy your worth and strip away all agency. #emotionalabuse
Hey @VUMChealth if the nursing craft wasn’t broken before - you’ve done fantastic job of it now. Social media and the final sliver of humanity left will roast you. #istandwithradondavaught
My copy of @ALeeMartinez ‘s newest book dropped today!! Just in time for #InternationalWomensDay
I know Connie would never ‘do’ brunch… but if she did I think we’d have the best time.
A. LEE MARTINEZ’S DAILY WRITING TIP:
Fiction is made up. You can do a lot in a story just because you want to. It’s all a construct and part of writing is hiding that. But if you want to put a talking gorilla or a animated broom in your story, you can!
Fentanyl is NOT your sedation - if your drip is at 150mcg/hr & the pt is 🤬You’re doing it wrong. Even if they’re an intubated trauma with a “broken everything bone”… we can do better!
DAY 1 #EDNurse takeaways from #ACEP21
Sedation Besties - propofol and precedex. Titrate to chill/sleepy RASS 0/-1
Fent/versed gtt = ⬆️ delirium/⬆️ ICUlos
Pt still 🤬? treat pain - ketamine gtt or IV💉 dilaudid (dont roll your eyes, they’re intubated!)
ETOH withdrawal or Tox Ingestion? Pump the breaks on Benzo gtt, consider bolus IVP for better long term outcome (Think about after the pt after the ED, you guys)

we are literally administering IV antibiotics to people as they are laying in their cars, laying on the outside benches, sitting on curbs, etc.
