  1. Best Men's Nursing Shoes???

    Nikes, dude
  2. If you could invent nursing supplies, what would it be?

    A sort of "condom cath" for women that fits like a suction and sends the urine to a foley bag. A bed alarm that actually said,"Please, lay back down" in a monotone voice to the pt, so that they would think that they had been caught. Wheechair cushi...
  3. Did you ever doubt your nursing abilities/judgement?

    By "gifted" I meant intelligent:wink2:
  4. Did you ever doubt your nursing abilities/judgement?

    Thanks for all the repiles, everyone. I feel a little better, now. I was just feeling a bit overwhelmed.
  5. I am in nursing school and will graduate in July. I am not trying to toot my own horn, but I am a very intelligent person, and I consider myself to be very gifted. In spite of all of this, I sometimes feel overwhelmed, as if I will not be a "good" ...
  6. So, what's all this talk abou manipulation?

    Oh, okay. Thanks! That makes a lot of sense.
  7. So, what's all this talk abou manipulation?

    I'm still a little "wet behind the ears" so forgive me for asking a silly question. I have been reading threads here in this section, and I was wondering how the inmates tend to be so manipulating; that is said here a lot. What do they do? And why...
  8. "fundamentals" of note taking

    I use those books. The DVDs have been a Godsend! Even though, I can point out a few things that they do wrong (i.e. reaching over a sterile field). I love them! I have excellent instructors, though, and I'm just really organized. When I type up ...
  9. What kind of voice recorder do you have?

    Thanks!!
  10. What kind of voice recorder do you have?

    I really want a good voice recorder, but I don't want to spend an arm and a leg for one. What kind do you have, where did you get it, and how much was it? I have never used one before, but I have a feeling that it will end up becoming my best frien...
  11. I hate it when the male nurses on my unit...

    Yeah, that bothers me, too. We actually just had an inservice on this, b/c our hosp has had a lot of MN injuries due to this. Though men do tend to be stronger than women, they aren't, as you said, meant to be "hoyer lifts." Unforunately, I see th...
  12. I hate it when the male nurses on my unit...

    Sad, but true.
  13. I hate it when the male nurses on my unit...

    I've had a male pt tell his nurse that I was flirting with him, and it made him uncomfortable b/c his wife was present. I was not flirting with him at all, I was just joking with him just like I do everyone else. So, it can definitely happen. I di...
  14. I hate it when the male nurses on my unit...

    Note that I said "on my unit." This is in no way intended to attack the entire male nurse population. That's absurd.
  15. I hate it when the male nurses on my unit...

    So, are you saying that you agree with these guys? If someone is that paranoid about working with female patients, then maybe nursing isn't for him. A patient could just as easily falsely accuse someone of hitting them, or abusing them in any way.
