A Patient Is Rescued, Quietly, @theresabrown, #oncology #nursing #nurses #nursefriendly #nurseup #cphc:"A real-life hospital emergency tends to be less obviously dramatic — and much more scary. A few weeks ago I had a patient in significant distress. This is the story of how we saved him.

He’d been admitted for a scheduled cancer treatment called a biological response modifier. The name matters only because we consider this class of treatments “hard drugs,” meaning they are very, very toxic. These types of drugs make patients feel so terrible that often after one round, they refuse further doses even when there are no other treatment options."
