1. New to Pre-op/PACU and SO OVERWHELMED!

   ArreisBSN replied to MerBearRN's topic in PACU

   MerBear, God bless your heart. You don't have to work yourself like this. You don't need to prove anything to anyone, and that includes yourself. Your identity is not your job. Life is too short to be feeling this way. You're not in harmony with the...

2. Movement to Forgive Health Care Workers' Student Debt

   ArreisBSN replied to TracyColo's topic in COVID

   A system that pays for free whatever- will automatically incentivize the increase cost of whatever good or service it is. Our nation could have the money for public healthcare, and a million other great civil works, but not until we grab the cancer...

3. Movement to Forgive Health Care Workers' Student Debt

   ArreisBSN replied to TracyColo's topic in COVID

   Something to consider: once the government pays out for education, they will pay the salaries too. Anyone here ever worked in public health? I have! Pay sucks and the whole system is run much worse (to the detriment of the patients) than private home...

   ArreisBSN replied to EPS's topic in COVID

   I attend births at a birth center in IN presently. We are SLAMMED. My brother in law is an ER doc in KY. Their census is so low that he is only scheduled for 3 shifts in 21 days.

5. Inconsistencies in SVEs

   ArreisBSN replied to LNDNursila's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I think, like all sphincters, they can open and close. Although, I believe my colleagues would mostly disagree. Other reasons could be positional, the angle of the exam, or the woman pulling away from the examiner’s hand (the vagina is a vacuum after...

   ArreisBSN replied to LNDNursila's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I had a mom once and sve was 2 and paper thin. About a half hour later OB looked at the monitor (her uc’s had picked up) and he rechecked her and said she was a 3-4 and was pissed off. He lectures me at the nurses station about accurate vag exam bein...

8. To be a coward, or to be a fool?

   ArreisBSN replied to MsJenn_The_RN's topic in COVID

   Who cares how many lives you save if you yourself lose your soul? Lose the love of your child? How damaging this is to your son should absolutely matter to you. No wonder you feel unrelenting shame! Your DUTY is to your child. Your JOB as a nurse i...

   ArreisBSN replied to DannyBoy8's topic in COVID

   This is a pandemic of chronic disease. Diabetes and COPD and other almost COMPLETELY preventable diseases. That should be what stands out to you.

    ArreisBSN replied to jeastridge's topic in COVID

    ArreisBSN replied to Marianna5's topic in COVID

    Talk to your nurse manager or director, and advocate for your patients’ safety! Y’all to her just like you’re talking to a doc, and use your sbar. ”I feel unsafe” “I am very concerned” can you go in overtime and complete ACLS? what support can they ...

14. Re-entering clinical setting after work from home

    ArreisBSN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hey folks, I've been out of the clinical setting for almost 3 years. I got hired on at a free standing birth center. I wanna be super prepared for my first day. Are there any good CEU courses anyone would recommend on things which I could be rusty? I...

15. An RN and a doula, should I be a Montrice ?

    ArreisBSN replied to organicbirth's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I have never offered my services marketed as a monitrice. To offer those services, it would be best to practice under a CNM or OB. Doula in the hospital, never at home. I have worked in a 5000+ Birth per year setting as well as the clinic/ boutique ...
