1. Pennsylvania Lawyers Resist Caps By Using Patient Photos

   liberalrn replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism

   Those "ambulance chaser" ads do not represent the majority of med/mal lawyers either. Agree that solution is prob. in the middle: rid the MD profession of lousy docs, curb the greed of trial lwayers and the ins. co--the true culprits in my book.

   Kenshi: Welcome to the BB! We hope to talk often. You work at night? In the hospital? You are a nurse? PS-can someone make me stop typing in this Dick and Jane way? I am saying the words really loudly and clearly in front of my computer! redshiloh:...

   liberalrn replied to Dayray's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks all. Didn't mean to sound so worked up, but really WHO are these people who touch us in all kinds of ways, at the doc's office, the outpt lab, the ER? It really burns me that every lay person I know will say stuff like,"the nurse came in and h...

5. Nurse is a nurse is a nurse

   liberalrn replied to Dayray's topic in General Nursing

   SC RN: I meant it exactly as written. I do not feel that it is "flip" to question the skills of the people "assessing" my children's vital signs. I was directly referring to my pediatrician's office where there are ( as far as I know) 2 RN's and the ...

   Agnus--thanks for the reply. "Wit" is fantastic--I keep thinking about it. Will most likely rent it again...there is alot there and not jsut about nursing. I think you will appreciate it! As far I can tell, no-one on the thread has said that LPN's ca...

   Many thanks.! So essentially, I should be looking for butternut squash? That makes more sense given the recipe. I appreciate the help. Can't wait to try it!

   Hello all. I hope I am not intruding, but I have a langauge dilemma. My daughter (13 y/o) has gone vegan on me. Go figure. Her grandmother, in the spirit of things, has sent a gorgeous cookbook of vegan and vegetarian meals. My problem is this: it is...

    Ask pt or soc. worker to contact his church--they might rally round. 'Bout the only thing I can think of at present. Best of luck.

    liberalrn replied to Dayray's topic in General Nursing

    oh, no! You read me almost completely wrong!!!! I do NOT like or approve of our "selfless, angel of mercy" image--it is truly a death sentence to people. The Teflon reference was looking at this static image that will NOT die.......no matter what. I...

    liberalrn replied to Dayray's topic in General Nursing

    Not trying to hijack thread, but I am so intrigued by "Wit". Loved the Prof. Ashford character.....Susie the RN was also very good. At the beginning, I thought that the doc was a jerk and then when the fellow came......more of a jerk! And then, at th...

    I love it! And I don't think we've come all that far...every hospital has a dress code......none of it gaudy! I love the zinger re: the needy pts at the end...so true. Am interested in the rest of this. give us more!

    wow. wow and double wow. Just watched "Wit" starring Emma Thompson. Excellent film. Nurses are portrayed realistically......in the caring and compassion and competence departments. Don't know 'cause don't work onc, but the RN's assignment seemed rath...

15. Nurse is a nurse is a nurse

    liberalrn replied to Dayray's topic in General Nursing

    OK. Many thoughts. I would go see Emma Thompson read the phone book aloud, so I'm renting that movie tonoc! Also, docs write "no brainer" orders because their butts have been burned one too many times by bad nurses--yes, they are out there! I shouldn...
