| Re: Waaaahhhh! Your manager should see something your scope in the OR and in PACU are different. I work L&D but also circulate c-sections and tubals and recover them too. In the OR you have your responsibilities for counts and making sure the sterile field is maintainted but anesthesia makes sure the pt stays alive once you hit PACU then the nurse gets to read the monitors, vitals, give meds etc. Sure you could call someone should you have to but you have to be able to make the decision to call. We have to do lots of narative charting in PACU in OR it's fill in the blank for the most part. Those OR nurses should stand up too. I got lots more PACU orientation the OR orientation. |

| Re: Waaaahhhh! working with the God complex really rocks! that's why i became a nurse! NOT!!! we have a surgeon (the WORST!!!) who writes for lab orders then when you call her (which makes her worse!!!) she asks, "why did you call me? i don't care what the results are!" no joke. last time she did that to me i told her that if she really didn't want to know, she either needed to write the order not to call her or don't order labs because she WILL be called. i work in ICU, we don't just jack around and call for the hell of it! hello! that woman is truley a *****!!! what's worse than a doc having a God complex? a woman surgeon with constant pms and the God complex! the only thing that would make it worse is if she had some accent that made her hard to understand! shew! i feel better now! angeeRN |
