Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Hi everyone, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the words of encouragement last week. Jonah's PICC line went smoothly last Monday. We actually came home Wednesday evening and are doing the rest of his meds at home. I was very upset with his home health nurse though. She did not offer to wash her hands once, so I had to jump in front of her to keep her from touching him or his meds. She had never seen the eclipse(?) (ellipse) bulbs before, so she did not know how to use them. I had to show her. She tried to take the red caps for the end of his PICC line and put them on the saline bottle. I had to thoroughly clean with alcohol. UGH!!! Yes, I did call the nursing agency and tell them not to send her back. Anyway, Jonah is doing great. His cough is already much better. I am scared to death he is going to pull his PICC out or hurt his arm. He is jumping from the couch to the loveseat as I type. Lord, please give me strength. Take care, Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
