I'm new here, but this forum needs a Staff Lounge...

You mean like an allnurses version of Facebook? :)

Yes.

But without worrying what our mother would think.

leslie :-D · Nov 28, 2011

...you know, an off-topic forum where we talk of our vacations, our one-eyed cousin that wants to move into the basement, virtually toast one another's greatness with one hundred of our closest, invisible internet friends, and post pictures of our cats.
Is it in here and I can't find it?
And to all you nurses not working tonight, I salute you. :)

there is such a place...allnurses central.

click on it at the top of this page and check it out.

much more casual, and non-nursing related.

Up at the very tippy top of the page, in small print, you will see three links on the right side. The first one says Central. This is where all of the non-nursing, but still interesting, topics live. Parenting, recipes, sports, vacations, pets, fashion advice, family dynamics and more. It's all there.

When you are in Central and want to come back to AN, the AN link will be in the place where you found Central.

Lots of fun stuff over there. Have a great time exploring.

Oh now I see it.

A little, obscure icon on the far upper right, hidden away from the neighbors like a red-headed stepchild.

So sad.

I see that. And helpful, too.

One or two post-clicks in and by gawd my FB security settings are already updated.

(no, really. I found useful info immediately).

xtxrn, ASN, RN · Nov 28, 2011

Well, come back and play a while :)

Go to general discussions, and join in the mayhem

I learn something new every day. I never realized that was there. Never thought to click on "Central". :clown: Can't wait to venture over.

Same here. I've been on here for years and never knew that was there.

It's much more social- a LOT of fun threads that aren't really "nursey" but when medical/nursey stuff comes up in the middle of things, it makes it crazier

There's sort of a "usual bunch", but we love newcomers - and we limit our eating of young to only dire situations We laugh a LOT, cry sometimes, and care about each other .....

Y'all come back, now hear? :up:
