An attending I’ve never met nor have spoken to before walked into the patient room I was in triaging my patient, glanced at me, said “whoa she’s scary” and then started assessing the patient. What the fuck?????? Did I miss something???
@RNSuperHero As an ER RN - we have been needing inpatient RNs to float down to assist us with our boarders on and off for last few years. When we get floated RNs- we assign pts appropriately. A med/surg RN is going to get med/surg pts. The only difference is they aren’t upstairs.
Im usually a skeptic. I think most “paranormal” things can be explained. However, the other day while receiving a post arrest from EMS, I felt a hand on my upper back only to discover that no one was near me, looking at me, or touching me. I just hope I made her feel at peace❤️
@HalfwayKnown I’ve worked in rural little 18 bed ER’s and I’ve worked in massive trauma centers. The job you will do is the same everywhere you go. My biggest advice is that a good team makes it all easier to manage so be a good teammate. You will be fine ❤️
@Q2turnQueen@ffmichelle I would say ideally ICU. Even when I have sent a 3% NS patient to a step down, it was technically ICU overflow and the RN only had 2 patients for closer monitoring.
