There's other safety oriented tasks with the same attention required. I wouldn't pass meds on ativan or oxy, and would be pretty cautious with most other sedating medications. Weirdly I also don't pass meds without strattera. Weirder I think flight attendants are in the same boat (plane?) where a lot of people see it as a customer service role and don't realize how safety oriented the job is. Then people start some bullshit in a crowded aluminum tube with no safe exits and get surprised when they get duct taped to a chair.
(sorry, what do you mean by "pass meds"?)
So most hospitals have a time, usually depending on when they change shifts, that most meds are scheduled around. And the whole process is much more complicated than I think most people realize. The omnicell can make sure you pull the right drug/form/strength and it can tell you how many to take out but it can't take the patient's blood pressure before you give them the metoprolol or fingerstick before you give their insulin and it can't check for dangerous side effects before or after the dose or make sure the blood level is taken and sent down to the lab at the right time relative to the administration of the med they're measuring (the omnicell can't even verify that took the right amount of pills out of the pocket). And you're doing that for six patients at a time. So (usually) my job doesn't require fast reflexes, but it does require pretty intense focus.
Ok, so what do you mean by "pass meds"?
I love how you managed to paint an even more confusing image.
For instance, based on what you've written with NO additional context, "the omnicell" must clearly be a terrifying large robotic overlord the size of a room that demands the world of you.
Probably a pharmacy technician or similar job where they handle giving patients medicine.
Thank you, ok, so what do you suppose this meant:
Strattera is an adhd drug, so they probably dont feel comfortable handling patients meds without themself being medicated for their adhd.
