Feels like my foot is nailed to the floor...

Just talked to the hospital...Vallejo won't accept her straight out of the ICU, SO, they have to transfer her back to 3N (lower level of care), so that Vallejo will accept her.

I talked to her nurse and asked that Dr. Hospitalist write orders that even though she is in 3N that she still gets the same frequency of respiratory care and treatments, so we don't end up with another issue that throws her down to 2N-ICU again.

I've got a call into the discharge planner to see if Vallejo had a bed when they made this determination this morning, or were they just saying they wouldn't accept her from the ICU when they did have a bed...

I'll keep y'all posted. (yes, I AM from Texas...)
