  1. I would say she evidently didn't listen to your report. I find that happens often, they get them and want to assess them without even listening most times. They hear the CC and do what they want when the patient gets there. ONLY good nurses listen to what has been done and will ask why and with good reasoning, will accept what has been done, and go on with their treatment of the patient.

    I have a question, off topic but was just curious... for my own information. Why an IV in both AC's? Wasn't one enough? Just curious, still learning.

  2. Thank you AZCEP, you have answered some of my questions, I was basically trying to get at specific situations that users have had and wanted THEIR experience with it and THEIR opinions.

    I appreciate you helping me and have had others send me messages answering more questions. I don't have a lot of time anymore to sit and read every single forum on here and when I attended our inservice, they called us in late and had started and it was 1/2 over by the time we arrived, is why I was asking questions. I have been on the web sites, but they just don't account or personal experience, which is basically what I was asking everyone.

    And medic, I will look up what you assisted with.

  3. I have to deduct 5 points though for not utilizing the search function to find that a similar thread to this has already been created and discussed. Feel free to search for the answers that have already been given. Should you have more questions after the search, post again and we'd be happy to use them.

    #1... I don't really care about points, I had a question and wanted to learn something. I glanced through, didn't see anything and don't want to spend 2 days looking for a "SIMILAR THREAD". If you don't want to inform me, then STFU....

    I also don't know that I'd use the words "BIG FUN!" to describe the use of the EZ-IO. As mentioned, it's another tool...not a replacement for good skills in the first place. If you don't know when you would typically use the IO access, it's probably in your patient's best interest that you refrain from using the device other than on a dummy to practice. Hopefuly your in-service training will cover more of your questions.

    #2 You have no idea who I am or my personality. I think this job is the most fun I have had in my entire life. I take it very seriously. It beats the past 8 years where I spent every single day in a "quality lab" inside the interior of a building, in a secure room with no visitors, never getting to see sunlight or get fresh air! So when I say something is fun, its because I am learning and something is exciting to me. So as I said before STFU...

    I do appreciate your information, I did have my inservice but WANTED OTHER OPINIONS! If you can do that without the criticism of one of your fellow peers and would like to assist once in a while, please do. Otherwise, keep your mouth shut. We all need to stop dipping in each others buckets and give compliments or assistance instead of talking about each other and maybe help or compliment once in a while!

    Thank you to the others for your information, I do appreciate it. I don't post about serious stuff all the time, I just read and learn, but when I do post, I am curious and would like information, NOT CRITISM!

  4. Anyone ever use this? How effective is it? How easy is it to use? What type of situations would you use it in? Any other information you can give, let me know... we are gettin them on our trucks, got to test them out today. BIG FUN!

    Thanks,

    Jen

  5. AMR has contacted me about coming on in Evansville....but in order to come on with them down in Evansville, you have to have Indiana State License, Illinois State License, Kentucky State License, NR License, PHLTS, AND a few other things.... it was just insane. I thought that was what NR was for, so you didn't need all the licenses for, but maybe I was wrong.

    That is off the subject of what the topic was in this post, but had to comment. Sorry.
