  1. Do you ever get tired of hearing this phrase?

    I agree what I do on my own time is my biz but can u imagine having a patient for several shifts who recognized you from your porn web site?
  2. obstetrical surgery and boluses

    Thanks-my brain is not working today:hug:
  3. obstetrical surgery and boluses

    I am a relatively new ob nurse taking perianaesthetic courses (long story). In simple terms (i.e. obstetrical nurses for dummies) why do we give boluses prior to c-sections? I know during surgery, with anaesthesia our blood pressure drops but physiol...
  4. Seeking ED education on Labor/Delivery in the ER

    I live/work in Ontario, Canada. The resources I personally go to regularly are: SOGC website, NRP, AWHONN, WHO website as well as the CNO and RNAO. Your facility should have developed policies and procedures for dealing with imminent birth, fetal mon...
  5. Yes, I am calm now as I reflect on it so I can learn from it; however, at the time I was ****ing my pants! We only have 2 nurses on the floor (only 1 left on the floor if the other nurse goes on a transfer-as we are a level 1) and so if we are having...
  6. We are a small hospital with no nursery. I'll admit I have had sympathy for multips who are tired and could do with a nap before heading home; however, I don't feel responsible to babysit if there is not enough staff. I will mind the baby for a short...
  7. just want an answer please!!

    Then ask for more information and if you can't answer the question, then move on-it is you who was disrespectful first
  8. I don't know all the details. I wonder if anyone has information so we can all learn from it. http://www.thebarrieexaminer.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=2833581&
  9. Students in Delivery Room

    It is a great opportunity for students. When I was a student, during my ob rotation, I never was able to see a birth. The nurses there always said the woman refused but I think they (the nurses) just didn't want us in there. They were awful to us-jus...
  10. Improvement Ideas

    In order to make my patient's experiences "extra special", I give them the best care I can give. I ensure my care is competent and safe and always try to treat them with respect. I would not babysit on my own time because that is when I need to recha...
  11. I hate my job

    Disappointed RN, I think there are many people that feel the way you do. There are many things in nursing school that they just don't tell you. What I don't understand is the reason why people feel the need to put people down. I guess it is because t...
  12. Negative Attitudes Towards RPN's

    If people didn't get into it for the money, then there wouldn't be very many nurses. Nursing is hard and very little respect is given to nurses nowadays. Plus, patients are more acute with multiple issues and there is a greater patient to nurse ratio...
  13. Negative Attitudes Towards RPN's

    Actually, in LTC, RN's would be in charge and monitor the RPN's and PSW's. Although not an acute care setting, still a huge responsibility.
  14. Sorry "cherrybreeze"
  15. Um, problem....

    The ng was iced but we ended up calling the doc to deal with-probably enemas till clear. Thanks guys.
