🔥Hot take🔥: any order in the hospital that is more frequent than every 4 hours should default to “while awake only”
It’s the humane thing to do ✌️

Continue hoping/living/loving/trying. The most human thing we can do at any given time is dare to believe beyond disaster.

I'm just a girl
Standing in front of the computer
Asking when they're gonna take docusate off all the order sets #Dontcusate

With code blue or rapid response, everybody runs to the patient.
Comfort care should be the same.
If patient with comfort care is not comfortable, that is a medical emergency.
If you cannot control it, call somebody immediately.
