When I assessed the patient pain, it was 8 out of 10. His pain medicine was given at 12 PM, so it was okay to administrate another dose since it was 3 PM. Jackie did an amazing job when assessed his respiratory and abdominal. The patient was feeling nausea so I called the doctor for a new order for that because it has not passed 6 hours to administrate another Phenergan. When I called the doctor, Jackie administrated another dose of Dilaudid. The doctor gave an order for NG tube intermitted suction for his nausea.

One thing Jackie and I forgot to do was put the pulse oxymetry on the patient. We were supposed to make sure his O2 stat was above 94%. I think we were to occupy doing the assessment, we forgot about his O2 stat. One thing I realized that, when given the patient medication if it is the correct time to administrate the medicine, I do not need to call the doctor to confirm. Before given the patient another dose of Dilaudid, I called the doctor for another order, however, it was not
