This is pretty much my place to post pictures of my pet rats ;)

When I was a CNA, this is how I felt about the nurses. When I got stuck with a lazy/crummy group of nurses, I immediately started to dread my day. Just a nice reminder that CNA’S CANNOT DO ASSESSMENTS. If there’s a low BP, GO RETAKE IT MANUALLY YOURSELF! Angry birds is not more important.

Everything went better than expected.
Pt came in today for a cardioversion. Looked like he was in Afib on the regular monitor, but he had P waves in V1. Called doc and got a 12 lead ekg. Turned out he had P waves in all leads which was hard to discern from the monitor. He was in sinus rhythm, and we didn’t need to do the procedure after all.
We had a TEE later, but the travel nurse took care of the case. Asked to leave early because I am going to finish my hours mid April and will have nothing to do for almost a month until I graduate. My preceptor/backup preceptor(s) weren’t there so I didn’t see a point. Travel nurse was arguing with manager infront of everyone. I felt awkward so that was another reason to leave.
Still working on job aps. yay.

Srs insomnia, wondering how many coffees I will need. 82 hrs left of preceptorship as of Tuesday.
Would you send a patient with ST-depression to the cath lab emergently?
Well, if you’ve been watching these videos, you’d know that (1) posterior MIs and (2) LMCA occlusions often have ST depression and benefit from rapid cath.
Give 9 minutes of your time to this video and you’ll learn another cause of ST-depression that seems to need rapid cath…just 9 minutes and you could save a life!
IDEK, but this guy’s tumblr is badass. yay cath lab.
