Guess who is changing her grandpa's abdominal dressing? You guessed correctly. The wound looks good and is healing. I did the dressing changes BID over the weekend and I do the evening dressing changes.
My grandmother is very particular and you know how scheduling goes with home care cases for evening dressing changes. Its the oncall person or a prn nurse or whoever can cover the visit so I am going his dressing changes in the evening.
My grandparents live within walking distance of our home (less than mile) and when I went in the house yesterday evening for his dressing change my grandfather asked me if I had a "paper" for him to sign so I could get paid. How funny and how sweet!
His primary nurse told him to watch his "Percocet" because some nurses may try to pocket the medication. Wow! I am a nurse license defense attorney and I wouldn't even say this. What's really going on here?
