<p>Hi. I haven't posted on MDC in a while but I'm struggling at my job. I'm a NICU RN in a unit that circ's. In the almost 5 years there, I have seen a number of really serious complications occur. Profuse bleeding being the most common though we recently had a partial amputation. Yjese babies go through so much. We spend so much time keeping them out of pain and watching for bleeding only to circ them!!! I don't get it!</p>
<p>Fortunately, we are a fairly low circ area, but not low enough, in my unbiased opinion.</p>
<p>I need this job. I cannot quit. But I am having a crisis of conscience here. Badly.</p>
<p>Any advice? Thanks!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>PS At least we did away with the labelled circ permit for every baby boy that was admitted to the unit. That's small progress.</p>
