This book is a moving and important affirmation of courage. Of the power of Love and of tragedy redeemed by compassion.

The Nurse and The Golden Goose – Guest Post by Carol Gino RN, @hopefulhealer @cgino8 #nurseup #nursefriendly #nursing #healthcare

NurseFriendly posted an update 31 seconds ago

The Nurse and The Golden Goose – Guest Post by Carol Gino RN, @hopefulhealer:”When I was working the night shift, one of my patients- a 44 year old man, had just gone for an angiogram. He had been brought back to the floor afterwards, but began hemorrhaging from his femoral artery. I’d added pressure dressings, laid on heavier sandbags, and then called the intern.
The intern took a while to get to the floor and all the while the patient kept bleeding heavily. When the intern just shook his head and did nothing, I called his resident. When the resident didn’t respond, I called the attending. Now I knew I was in big trouble. It didn’t matter that the patient’s blood pressure was 60/40 by the time I called, it mattered that I had broken protocol.
Because I knew this Directress of Nursing was good and fair, when she called me into her office, I decided to try to listen to her with an open mind, even though the whole thing made no sense to me.
She was sitting at her big oak desk and she hardly looked up as she waved her hand, indicating that I should sit in the chair across from her.”

#Nurse Advises ”Reconsider Choice of #Physicians” An Nurse’s #Ethical Dilemma. Robert W. Stein, III, RN, MSHA, CHE, LNC, #nursefriendly #nurseup #ethics

NurseFriendly posted an update right now

#Nurse Advises ”Reconsider Choice of #Physicians” An Nurse’s #Ethical Dilemma. Robert W. Stein, III, RN, MSHA, CHE, LNC, #nursefriendly #nurseup #ethics:”In this case the nurse providing patient care noted a decline in the patient’s condition, evidenced by weight loss, hallucinations, psychiatric symptoms, and acute distress. The findings were documented and attempts were made to contact the attending physician. The attending physician, however, failed to return any of telephone messages.
As the patient’s condition continued to deteriorate, the patient’s family asked for the nurse’s advice about what should be done for the patient. The nurse suggested that they ”reconsider the choice of physicians.”
The facility promptly fired the nurse after learning of the advice she had given to the patient’s family. The nurse brought suit for wrongful termination arguing that as a Registered Nurse she was obligated to provide ”teaching and counseling” to her patients and their families.”

Nurse’s Coach Keith Carlson Promotes Self Care, January 31st, 2012 By Jennifer Olin, BSN, RN, @Jolin2 @nursekeith #nurseup #nursefriendly

NurseFriendly posted an update right now

Nurse’s Coach Keith Carlson Promotes Self Care, January 31st, 2012 By Jennifer Olin, BSN, RN, @Jolin2 @nursekeith #nurseup #nursefriendly:”And so begins my introduction to Nurse Keith, aka Keith Carlson, RN. Over the phone, Carlson is soft-spoken and considered in his answers to my questions about this relatively new specialty by nurses, for nurses. Good traits when you need someone to listen. Carlson is part of the up and coming field of nurse coaches; health care providers who help others discover, or rediscover, what drew them to nursing in the first place and how they can find greater satisfaction and joy in both their professional and personal lives.”

Not Guilty: Texas Jury Acquits Winkler County Nurse, #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare:”It took the jury less than an hour to return a not guilty verdict this morning for Anne Mitchell, RN, defendant in the
criminal trial that has come to be known as the “Winkler County nurses” trial. Mitchell faced a third-degree felony charge in Texas of “misuse of official information,” for
reporting a physician to the Texas Medical Board for what she believed was unsafe patient care. Mitchell is a member of the Texas Nurses Association (TNA) and the

North Dakota Nurses, Could This Happen To You? #nurseup #amandatrujillo #nursefriendly:”If you have been the victim of a situation like Amanda’s we’d like to hear your story. It is a story that is being repeated with the “Kennedy Nurses” in New York, with the “Sunrise Nurses” in Nevada, previously with the “Winkler Nurses” in Texas.
In each of these cases, it is interesting to note where the nurses turned for support. These situations happen every day. We would like Nurseup.com to become a clearinghouse for nurses in these types of situations. We want to compile lists of organizations that can help nurses in these types of situations.”
