Except when there are bad outcomes because the actual patient status doesn’t match up with MAR? And then it becomes the M&M case of the week.

Imo it depends on the patient. If the patient says they take the meds but their signs - vitals, telemetry, routine labs, PE, etc show otherwise - then it’s your responsibility to confirm or deny patient medication adherence.
I’d like to say a functioning healthcare team means that the top level providers will trust their nurse’s judgement about the patients they are in charge of.
But at the end of the day this is about treating patients and ensuring that a standard of care is met. Part of that standard is allowing for shared decision making, non paternalistic care, etc.
But again, it is your responsibility to know what is happening with the patient. It’s not really that you’re forcing the patient to adhere, it’s to confirm if they take it or not.
Oy… sending love over the internet. A member of my community decided against going to nova the night before, I can only imagine what it’s been like for you.
Actually there are a good number of Arab Israelis who are not of Palestinian origin. It’s a more encompassing term. Plus from what I know Times of Israel is left leaning - so you might be barking up the wrong tree here.
And non Palestinians? What are you on about here
^ this - people keep making this assumption and it’s tiring. None of the groups involved in the conflict have European origin. Having diaspora that migrated to Europe ≠ being European or white
Damn this reminded me to think for a second before adopting or endorsing this. Thank dude
This reminds me of those hitler quotes that people were duped into agreeing with and then being told it was said by hitler.
May her memory be a blessing… I hope that the community she is a part of will find peace in the coming days, months, and years
does this include the MSG channel?
These kinds of generalizations do not help the cause on either side. It’s only going to help fan the flames. Plenty of Palestinians are just regular citizens who live under the tyrannical rule of Hamas, but would much rather prefer peace. May I ask, do you have personal involvement in this conflict at all? Do you see comments like this helping Israelis, Jews, or Palestinians reaching peace and stability?
I think ublock is working on a fix
yeah I was talking about leftist extremists. not sure how the term “far leftist” was interpreted as all leftist
Unfortunately this is a very classic far leftist take. Easy to blindly justify a cause you’ve been told to believe in when you simply dehumanize what you’ve been told are the villains
Far too many leftists, like their right wing nut counterparts, are contrarians at heart. This is what happens when political ideology becomes a personality trait; it becomes akin to a religion.
hit the nail on the head with that. I’ve seen so many leftists horseshoe into this perverted self righteousness. and it is even more frustrating when they act like they are directly involved in a conflict they really have nothing to do with.
I’ve seen you comment this before and I’m really sick of it. Get Jews out of your mouth and mind your own business. Idk where your hard on for Jews came from but it’s really weird. Grow up.
I tried checking the link but it didn’t work- anyone know why?
beats me. in the healthcare world kaiser is pretty polarizing. the effectiveness of having the entire healthcare system in one network has a lot of benefits (patient access, communication between physicians, billing) - but of course with that level of vertical power means that there’s ample room for greed to get in the way of prioritizing patient care and dignified treatment of their providers. So it’s possible they have a lot more money than we think, which means more time to try to demoralize the strikers.
It could be an emotional/ego factor as well… execs who feel too proud to fold.
what are your thoughts?
In order to properly document it, there would need to be visual confirmation of the medication being taken, and if it’s refused the medication needs to not be in the patients access. Otherwise OP is not a reliable historian and is unfit for their job as they refuse to comply with standard of care.
I’m on clinical rotations right now , and I literally just asked the nurse next to me about this and she said OP is dead wrong.
