The big bosses aren’t medical staff, they’re calling is not patient care, it’s profit.
What op is experiencing is delusion in the system and burnout.
OP is right. Document, cya, and move on.
All these downvotes and replies seem to be from people who want to think a hospital is altruistic place of healing. Unfortunately it’s an end stage capitalism hellscape that chews up and spits out most people who give a damn.
Oof this is definitely wrong. A blood thinner is one of the most important things whether a patient is taking or not. It's the nurses job to let the doctor know whether the patient is compliant not only for medical reasons but for documentation. That's outside the argument about profit in healthcare in US, that's basic medicine. What if that patient falls and hits their head? Do we need to know if they're on s blood thinner? What if they're hemoglobin starts dropping? What if they need a procedure? What tif their platelets start dropping? Etc, etc, etc.
Don't be a dick and not do your job, that makes your coworkers miserable and puts people in danger especially in medicine. I agree with burlit being and issue and chronic understaffing but be an adult and quit or move positions if you don't like it.
