DDA drug

Incident 1

Somebody sat on a chair and yelled,"Ho, come and sign here(DDA drug check book) for me"

me,"can you give me the key to me to check the DDA?"

- excuse me, I only sign if I really see the stocks are available. You thought you ask me to sign then i'll sign blindly, weren't you? Thought I have no brain? If there was lost of drug, do you protect my nursing license?

Incident 2

After somebody A asked me to sign the DDA book blindly, somebody B asked me to help A sign it. She said, "yes yes, you can sign". I said," erm...I think you have better to ask the person who checked DDA this morning to sign it"

- I didn't even check the DDA this morning, just ask me to sign blindly? again sign sign sign.

Pre-operation Checklist

Somebody said, "SN Ho, can you please help me to verify the checklist?"

While I was looking through the checklist in order to check whether she has completed the checklist, she asked, "can you please JUST sign?". I ignored her, continued checking the checklist then only verify the checklist for her.

-excuse me, you are staff nurse or I am staff nurse? Anything happen people blame you or blame me?Don't teach me how to do my job. If you want to ask somebody to sign blindly, don't ever ask me again.

In conclusion, people here just love to give their signatures.Perhaps not all. I believes there are few of staff nurses very responsible in their jobs. Just couldn't stand with the culture of "BLINDLY SIGN".
