The infusion pharmacy - wonderful folks - will set up Dilaudid CADD pumps and fax me the order to sign and fax back. The RESPIRATORY CARE department, last week, refused to send out a mask to a patient who wanted one for his O2 until I faxed them a scrip. That's right - a patient who already had a valid order for O2 and wanted a mask instead nasal cannula. They wouldn't send it out without a written order.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15886225476339783827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816413964252528093.post-38772336038360482742009-05-21T07:50:49.409-07:002009-05-21T07:50:49.409-07:00@ Tim...

Hi! And thanks for the comment.

Needless to say, I don't live in the South.

Always the best about accepting education as provided. Gracious about the level of care they're receiving etc. Where do you find these patients!? : )el chupacabrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16561225364468732743noreply@blogger.com
