   fortune-teller replied to nrsman1's topic in General Nursing

   Phasing out LPN's? My answer consists of 2 words: Not possible. Rationale: 75 million baby boomers and RN's cannot take care of all those aging patients alone. Many people/nurses have been saying it...

4. Abandonment

   fortune-teller replied to kamani811's topic in General Nursing

6. Is it worth going to school to be an LPN?

   fortune-teller replied to Shawn7997's topic in General Nursing

   If you could get into an RN Program, you should go for it. However, if that is not the case, you can use the LPN Program as a stepping stone. The very first time when I heard some nurses said that...

7. Confrontation with a Visitor

   fortune-teller replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

   I am not so sure if your bosses were really "understand." I think all the bosses are diplomatic and smooth talking is part of it. Have you noticed that some nurses are doing the same thing? In front...

   fortune-teller replied to ElderCare Nurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

   fortune-teller replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

   The administrator was correct as there is no evidence at all. A nurse's "intuition" is just not good enough in this

    fortune-teller replied to ElderCare Nurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    You must quote my post entirely! I said an incident report is not needed and I stand by my decision;however, it seems to me you intentionally left out the big part of it. Anyhow, I rest my case, as...

    fortune-teller replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    how do you know the wife is controlled by that man? are you closely related to them? is op's intuition a standard for all of us? it is just not right to judge a person when we are not even there. if...

12. Confrontation with a Visitor

    fortune-teller replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    I wasn't there so I don't think it is appropriate for me to judge what that man did. Different cultures have different ways to approach women. When you work in one of the Arab countries, you can't...

    fortune-teller replied to ElderCare Nurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Both of them are the same! The second one I had to spend more time to define the first one! What do you mean by "your prior statement...erroneous?" An incident report is not needed in this case due to...
