1. Considering Quitting my Job

   debrasimons replied to Marianna5's topic in COVID

   How about because you prefer to live instead of being put in the direct line of possible death due to overwhelming bureaucracy.

2. Malicious "pimping" in nursing / nurse practitioner school?

   debrasimons replied to RomaniGypsy's topic in General Nursing

   The term is accurate in medical school. My daughter finished medical school and that is what she called it much to my surprise. As far as nursing school perhaps it's called the nursing instructors eat their young but at the same time I know that if o...

3. "I Narcanned Your Honor Student"

   debrasimons replied to EAGirl's topic in General Nursing

   You speak of affluent people in affluent areas as if they are the only ones who can be honor students. People from all walks of life can indeed overdose on drugs. Honor students don't need to be ashamed because they are honor students. Generally spea...

4. "I Narcanned Your Honor Student"

   debrasimons replied to EAGirl's topic in General Nursing

   What makes you think because someone is an honor student that they consider themselves high-and-mighty? I think generally speaking it's because they worked hard. That does not mean they cannot become involved with drugs but you sound as if you have a...

5. Angry Teachers

   debrasimons replied to MrsNurse08's topic in School

   The nurse explained that he is in a special class and has emotional issues so there is obviously something else going on so I don't think being so unempathetic is helpful in this situation either. Maybe finding out about his home life? Why his sleep ...

8. "I Narcanned Your Honor Student"

   debrasimons replied to EAGirl's topic in General Nursing

   I'm not sure it should be considered high and mighty to be an honor student which means someone probably worked pretty hard to get where they are so I'm not sure I understand why you think they are a schmuck.

9. Does anyone else ever envy their patients?

   debrasimons replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

   Certainly I do not know many people who would prefer to be bedridden or unable to live a normal life and be active instead of relying on others for simple care and complex care . Being independent instead of dependent on others is a far cry better th...

10. Overweight Healthcare Workers

    debrasimons replied to EmpoweRN's topic in General Nursing

    People should open the video because she goes on to say of course anyone who is good at what they do and caring and kind regardless of their size is welcome in the healthcare profession.. No one should just automatically assume something they have no...

11. Lied to in Interview

    debrasimons replied to westieluv's topic in General Nursing

    I would go to the dialysis center without a thought for the other place since they hoodwinked you at best.

12. I Should Be in Jail

    debrasimons replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    I think any parent or caregiver who deliberately chooses to abuse a child or stand by while a child is abused should die. So don't worry about what I think of you, you are fine, therefore I would be in jail for murder, not just simple assault.

13. Self defense and protection in a hospital.

    debrasimons replied to Ruger8mm's topic in General Nursing

    We know today's atmosphere is far different than a few years back.. Hospitals are not necessarily the safe havens they once were. that being said I think it might be necessary for hospitals to put metal detectors at patient and family and visitor ent...
