… or, yuh know, do forget. They’ll automatically move themselves as they’re designed to do.

And the decay proceeds unceasingly no matter what. Good morning everybody!

Where? They changed in the US on March 10th.

In the entire EU it is this weekend

[-] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

Ah okay! I assumed the EU didn't do it or already got rid of it because of how dumb it is.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

There have been suggestions, but I don't thing anything is decided.

Free hour of pay for many of my nightshift nurses, respect. Just watch those vanc levels.

Didn’t we just change the clocks like weeks ago? Am I tripping?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

EU and other countries use a different date than the US.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I realized that after scrolling further after posting my comment.

So I got to feel dumb twice.

I thought hospitals didn't change clocks so as not to screw up the timings of medication for the patients...

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Maybe some don't, all of the ones I worked in did. For the most part our timing can go plus or minus 1 hour on medication administration in general and anything that specifically can't will be reflected in the MAR. It's mostly seamless. Many actions that are specific require peak and trough levels anyway so they're kind of self correcting and medications that need constant coverage are generally supplied by IV so we're living on the drip's time, not the clock.

In the end, the nurse themselves have to use their knowledge to manage it, but it's not bad.

Now thats got me thinking something rather grim but interesting. If a baby is born just before clocks go backwards, then due to some complication dies less than an hour later, just after they can gone back, would the baby have a time of death before its time of birth?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Yeah but once a year they go backwards, which is neat.

My South African friends don't have to worry about this yearly sacrifice of sleep.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

If they did, it would be swapped anyway and they'd get the extra hour this time!
