  1. Missing Daytonite

    I am so very sorry to here of her passing. I read so many of her post while I was in school and PM'd her to tell her how much I learned from her. All I have to say is heaven is lucky to have her!
  2. Compassion.... why is it so hard to give some?

    I could not agree with you more! I know I only have a little over a year of experience working in LTC. I have 30 residents I take care of. I work the midnight shift. No matter what is going on in my personal life i NEVER show it to my residents. when...
  3. Pain managing question

    Marachne thank you so very much for the links. Again thank you all for replying.
  4. Pain managing question

    Thank you all for your replies. I do understand about the non verbal signs when assessing for pain. It just seems that when someone is close to dying in our facility here comes the Roxanol. Marachne that is when we are giving it every hour. I have of...
  5. Pain managing question

    Although I am not new to LTC I am a new nurse. Recently we had had a lot of our redidents pass away. My recent patient had pancreatic cancer and was able to verbalize his pain to me almost up until the time he passed. I had no problem giving it to hi...
  6. Freaky Things

    A couple of years ago I was very close to a resident. I will call her Josie. I worked the night shift and she was often up at night. She started to decline. I had a feeling she would not be there when I got back to work and my nights off were coming ...

  10. Nervous about taking NCLEX-RN

    The best advice I can give you is expect 265 questions. Don't watch how many questons you have. Think before you answer even if you believe you are right. Don't let anything distract you. Keep focused on the test. You don't get through nursing school...
  11. Your Back

    First off I would like to say I am all for males entering the nursing field. I love men! I am even married to one lol. I would also like to see more enter the field. I think diversity is a great thing. Now that said I guess my point is that on some l...
  12. Your Back

    I felt the post was stating that you feel like you should get more pay for lifting patients. Why? I do extra lifting and I am not getting extra pay. It goes with the job.
  13. Your Back

    I have been asked many times to help another nurse or a CNA. I feel it's being a team player and taking care of the patients needs. I realize you were asking the men but I find this question a little offensive. If I need help I will ask anyone that i...
