Thanks 🙏 please, keep going!
Thank you so much for these videos. I've been an RN for 3 years and I'm using this playlist to prepare for my psych board certification.
Nice talk. The order for violence restraints must be updated every 4 hrs, the 24hrs window is for non violent restraints.
I have the cards and i'm hoping to pass the mental health proctor the first time lol! love the mini quizzes after the vids!
Thanks
Thank you for the video. It is clear and helpful
The min quizzes at the end make the videos better . Thank you for everything
I remember assault = being an a$$ battery=beating
Isnt the restraint unlawful restraint
If its not needed
i love your videos.. thanks for sharing and keep it up 🙂
Love this playlist! Prepping for my class next week and hoping to lay a good foundation. God bless you and your work!
Did you ever consider the patient just does not want any treatment that is forced upon him, this only escalates anxiety which is caused by the healthcare worker mainly nurses, I for one many times told nurses just leave me alone, to the point where I said where is my clothes I’m leaving, their attitude changed
I found the A before B helpful. All of it, really. I love the way you just talk. It just sinks in. Thank you so much.
Just want to say thank you.
Thank you ♥
1:24 Assault and Battery are two separate wrongs.
For example, if someone holds up a baseball bat in order to INTIMIDATE another to MOVE or otherwise COMPLY with a DESIRED OUTCOME, that’s ASSAULT. The assailant doesn’t have to strike the victim.
If a person comes up from behind a STRIKES another, that is BATTERY.
My female doctor touched me in an intimate are without informing of what she was about to do or gaining my verbal consent. What the heck?!
Why would a female doctor do this? Especially since she’s quite attractive and about 15 years younger than me. I don’t get it. She’s married with four children.
Seeing that my underwear were still on, why would she instruct me to remove them, not tell me what she was going to do and then feel my testicles? Also, she did a test for inguinal hernia on both sides except I was lying down the whole time. Isn’t the patient supposed to be standing for this test?
This situation is so bizarre.
4:16 FYI: You are incorrectly using the phrase, “If you did [X], you would be GUILTY of …”
“GUILT” only applies in criminal cases, whereas TORTS are CIVIL wrongs. Therefore you would say, “If you did [X], you would be FOUND LIABLE for …”
I was put in an incduced coma when i woke up i was in restraints almost had a neverous break but i got myself off the restrsints. I still get nightmares.
I was put i false impriosement the Dr. Never explained yo my power of attorney about the no n restrsints. Was nit put in my medical records that i was restrained until i talk to someone from social services then then restrsint record was released. When i got myself iff the restsints that is still not in the records never was documented
What's a tort
❤
When i saw your degree on the wall i felt like i knew you. I live in north county. But I grew up in NOVA and played my state championship football game down in Charlottesville! At UVA. Thank you for the great videos!
Great videos just subscribed
I'm a psychiatric RN working in an acute mental health hospital I'm Indiana. Wanted to clarify a statement you made about a voluntary patient being able to leave when they want since they signed themselves in voluntarily. This is not true, at least in my state. A psychiatric provider has 24 hours to make a decision whether a voluntary patient can be discharged. A patient can sign an AMA form requesting to leave, however the patient does not get to leave at that time. By law the physician has 24 hours to make their decision. As a nurse it's my responsibility to inform the patient of the risks associated with signing this form. It's also my responsibility to notify the provider that the patient signed the AMA form. In my 22 years of working in behavioral health nursing, I have never seen a patient get to leave immediately, even if they signed themselves in voluntarily. If they sign the form in the evening they will definitely be staying the night until the provider sees them the following day. Then the provider can either let the patient sign out AMA, or Emergency detain them for another72 hours if the provider doesn't feel they are safe to leave. As you said , the patient has to be a harm to themselves, or others, or be gravely disabled for the provider to petition for an Emergency detention order. And weekends and holidays do not count towards the 72 hour emergency detention.
Torts, assault verbage battery you touched and it caused harm.a. threat, b. Battery following through of threat. C. False imprisonment, chemical or physical restraint. D. Invasion of privacy sharing pt info without explicit pt permission. E. DEfamEmation of character harming their character in sight of them and others. Unintentional vs fail to do duty guilty of malpractice. Failure to reposition a pt would be malpractice which is negilegence on part of professional.restraints alternatives reduce stimuli, diversions, calm interventions prn anti anxiety med if ordered. A restraint must be given by md ASAP if put on in emergency situation. Mittens least restrictive, to most. Check vs q2hrs ROM skin integrity under restraints, toileting fluids. Every 2 hours, order 24hrs only document q2 hrs, will be audited. Remove as soon as no longer a threat. Provider in 24 hrsmust do in person assessment and prn orders aren't allowed. A new order must be reobtained and how often what care provided q2hrs
Question: restraints are so monitored and looked down against, when do we gauge is the time to do this? I feel like with the way things are you need the order even in an emergency situation because you're doing it without an order…..is if they hit someone the emergency warranting it or if they try to cut themselves….i just wonder when does NCLEX say apply. One question said a confused pt ripping out IV and fall risk apply the mittens (i think it said hitting staff too) but……does that really qualify? If there A&Ox2…is that enough for them to refuse tx simply? At work ylu basically never do this period. In hospital they do but nursing homes never
Great thanks dear
