1. What are some of the nicer hospitals in twin cities?

   blynn replied to ivn75's topic in General Nursing

   Gosh, I would kill to see that at my job. I should clarify that I don't work at this hospital, but I definately have noticed a trend in upper management to say 'we hear you, we're going to work with...

   OUCH Pannie! Thanks for the warning, hope you feel better

3. Anyone get snowed in today?

   blynn posted a topic in General Nursing

   Love the snowfall we're having today, don't you? I tried for over an hour just to get my car out of my driveway today, took a lot of shovelling just to get my car back down the hilly driveway and...

4. Discharge orders you'd LIKE to write!!!

   blynn replied to LoriAlabamaRN's topic in Emergency

   Hey, if she's insinuating that she's going to beat you up in a parking lot, can't you slap a restraining order on her? Or does HR frown on that sort of thing? Does anyone know how that type of...

5. LPN"s and telephone triage

   blynn replied to 4kidsrn's topic in Telephone Triage

   This thread has got me worried. I work for a clinic that only hires LPN's and MA's. We don't have any RN's employed at our facility. We are each assigned one doctor to work with, and we handle all of...

6. Im sorry, but light stomachs please do not read!

   blynn replied to onconurseRT's topic in General Nursing

   I was just wondering what your son felt about all of this? Was he really disturbed by this, or did he just think it was a lame joke? Does he really not get along with the boy who did this, or are they...

7. "but doctors are better than nurses"

   blynn replied to AussieJack's topic in General Nursing

   What's that saying again? Doctors save lives, nurses save doctors. I work one on one with a surgeon as his office assistant. I triage all of his patient calls, make sure all of his orders get to the...

8. Grrrr, sick of the RN Vrs LPN's

   blynn replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing

   I think that that is a very clever way to teach a bully to knock it off and start being fair.

9. Questions about foley removal

   blynn replied to nanmad's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

   That patient's foley must've been plugged or kinked or something, there is no way they should have 800cc's after only two hours with the foley out. I think your idea of being sure it's drained is a...

11. Scared outta my mind!

    blynn posted a topic in LPN to RN

    I've been pondering the idea of taking an accelerated RN program at the local community college, I know I need to get more information from them, but I am scared out of my mind that I won't be able to...

12. Think I've Done All I Can for This Person?

    blynn replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    :uhoh21: Oh NO, are you kidding? How will she be able to tell her patients bad news? The LPN in our clinic that I mentioned earlier was about two inches from getting fired, but she decided that the...

13. Can a new grad be a HH nurse?

    blynn replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Home Health

    I was hired as a new grad LPN for homecare. I had worked as a PCA with the same company so I kind of had my foot in the door. I worked in home care for my first four years out of school. I was...

14. Your Safety

    blynn replied to runner11's topic in Home Health

    I worked a night shift at a client's house and someone tried to break in, the parents of the child I was caring for yelled at them to get them to run off. It worked, but it did not sit right with me...
