New technicians don't listen, wildly over-confident.
My wife is an at home user who's been going in center following a leg injury and eye problems.
The last 4 months we have seen a lot of turn over at the center and the new staff are wildly overconfident, not listening to nurses, training staff, or patients.
My wife is currently at dry weight and low blood pressure so the unit nurse and my wife agreed to withdraw the minimum. So what do I see but the new girl go up to the machine and turn up draw when my wife nods off.
Needless to say, I got the nurse over and stopped it, but WTH was she thinking, going over everyone's heads and making care decisions on her 2nd week on the job?
The other one has been at it a couple months, but is still learning machine operation basics, and keeps saying she wants to work with the home program.
Did they sell her a lie or something? You need to be a full nurse with a few years experience for those positions. Nevermind she knows nothing about home treatment so I wonder if she thinks it's easier?
