thanks for this PSA
@DGlaucomflecken
as a trauma surgeon i've seen many patients who've blown their faces off after checking to see why fireworks haven't gone off. btw in addition to catastrophic facial damage, they can cause brain injury & death as well.
the trauma surgeon stood with their hands clasped behind their back staring out the hospital window at the first warm sunny day in awhile,
inspired deeply, then gravely said, "i smell violence"
it's that time of year when we'll be seeing 250ml IVF boluses, 0.25mg of versed, 5meq KCl, etc ☺
nurses & pharmacists thank you for patiently fixing these orders, training up young docs, and advocating for our patients
