Our unit manager just called me into the office earlier to ask why I haven't charted yet!!?
Bitch, are you serious? I started off with 5 patients on my OB floor. One of the patient's being a fresh c-section with a foley still, and the other an antepartum whose K+ was 2.6, with severe vomiting. I was busy replacing the K+ and helping her nausea. And 3 other patients on top of that. It was 1200 when she asked me why there was nothing charted. I need to focus more on "real time charting" apparently...
Never in my 8 years of nursing have I ever been called into a manager's office to complain about the TIME I have been charting. I get my charting done when I get it done. I never have left my job without my charting being done. I'm just so pissed off right now.
