   Cotinine urine screening pre employment

   Tweety replied to CWS RN's topic in General Nursing

   I'm surprised you haven't heard this. It's been controversial but I heard about it years ago. People feel it's a violation of their privacy and choice. I'm not sure it's legal in all states or what the court challenges have turned up but it'...

   G'day. Joe, enjoy your day. Stars, sorry for the sleep trouble. I know that feeling well. Dogs let me sleep until 7AM but Waffles was not having it that I wanted to sleep later. Went to an 11AM yoga class. I noticed they'd stop...

   G'day! Dianah, that soup sounds good. I've been craving Mexican or American Mex. and almost ordered Taco Bell last night. I usually keep my Bluetooth and wifi off as I heard it uses up the battery and turn it on as necessary. J22, I...

   The Movie Thread

   Tweety replied to Tweety's topic in Lounge

   June Again is an Australian movie out on Amazon Prime that I really enjoyed. The main character is very well acted and revolves around a woman with vascular dementia after a stroke that mysteriously gets a reprieve and comes back to life to her old ...

   Good morning! Joe, hope today is easier on you. (I asked the mods to change your post to reflect that it's Wednesday today and not Tuesday. Had me confused for a minute.) I looked for an over-50 or seniorish group here and knew there was ...

   Great pictures Dianah. I've been way out of the loop news wise lately, listening sporadically rather than trying to keep up daily like I usually do. I think with it being an election year, I can't stand the news. I hate sometimes how it's pres...

   Pain Journey

   Tweety replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Exercise

   Good luck. I was in neck pain for three months and went insane, so can't imagine all those years. On a side note and I'm not giving any advice at all, but I had a good friend with psoriatic arthritis and breakouts that went vegan and it improve...

   Accused of falsifying charting

   Tweety replied to Dee1959's topic in General Nursing

   Sounds like you are omitting charting? I think it's semantics to say that you are "falsifying charting". But if you are doing wound care and not charting what you did, how the wound looks and is progressing then that is perhaps what they are talkin...

   Good morning! Joe, hope you have a good day and enjoy the dinner. Ado, hope the treatment takes care of the bed bugs. When it rains it pours sometimes. Hope things settle down. You know you're getting old when "sleeping in" means get...

    G'day! Another mass shooting. Sometimes I wonder when our turn is. Joe, hope you had a good day. Not much happening here.

    Too about about the tornadoes. Glad you guys were spared Ado. Hope the gypsies feel better Stars. Dianah, what do you use to keep track of things. I think I might have chronometer, but it's not on my phone. Uneventful day. One mor...

    G'day! Not too crazy of a day. Discharged 7 and got 7 in. It's relentless the amount of admissions we get. I guess it's a symptom of a sick society and a growing population I guess. Seems like every other admission is for some sort of cellul...

    I have vision insurance and pay nearly $400 for glasses and there is now a co-pay for the exams. I think with the bi-weekly premiums the discounts probably don't announce to much. I bet the insurance cards in my car are not up to date since I h...

    Good morning! Hope you have a good day Joe. Off today. Survived three days in a row. Tuesday I felt I got an unfair and almost bullying assignment of four known discharges that set me up to be slammed with four admissions. Stayed until 9...

    I gripe about the never-ending chores around here, I know I'd hate taking care of someone else. Dianah, glad to hear you're going off keto. Like I said it's good for losing weight I suppose but long-term health, especially knowing you were ar...
