Hang in there! I went from almost homeless to an MLS-degreed librarian in 2 1/2 years...was trained in Records Mgmt and Archival work but found Records MGMT was what I HATED! Spent 2 1/2 years in Public Librarianship and on my 4th year in Academic......
Nursing Theorists provide the background for helping develop one's OWN theory of Nursing...this I have noticed from working with various Nursing students over the past 3-4 years at our university.

However, I do have to ask...Why would a hospital allow sexual intercourse between a patient and family member or patient and patient? Help me better understand...thanks!

I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE!!!!! YES, YES, 1000x YES! That is my response to the question would men die without sex? On a more serious note, read the book His Needs, Her Needs: How to Affair-proof Your Marriage for a more authoritative answer...Sorry, not...
The problem is twofold, the transgendered nursing student may/may not have tried to discuss this with the study group/s in question (it was not mentioned in the post either way) AND the instructor told the class, without mentioning whether or not the...
Do Nurses make the worst patients...in the words of Nursing students...YES!!!!! I've heard numerous times that when 1st year ASNs are doing clinicals and ask patients (who are/have been Nurses) the answer is NO. My question is that if you are wanting...
Apr 14, '05 by erroridiot There are two sides to every coin. I guess that I can't see anything to joke about when human emotions and lives are involved.......but I did notice - IMHO - that you are displaying some ambivalence about this subject...

Sending positive/loving energy your way...you are right, it should NOT have happened this way...that lady should have been able to pass with pride and dignity!

Louis345...GO WITH YOUR GUT (AND YOUR HEART)! I spent 25+ years in Sales & Marketing and ABSOLUTELY HATED IT! Lost several jobs, had THREE Nervous Breakdowns in 8 years, then bottomed out! Went to Library School at 48 years of age, graduated at 5...
WSteven1 replied to Doc Lori, R.N.'s topic in General Nursing
Just trying to point out how much I've learned (in a humorous way) by subscribing to this blog, AND HOW, as one on the periphery of the Nursing profession, I have come to understand and appreciate (as best I can) what you all deal with in your lives ...
WSteven1 replied to Doc Lori, R.N.'s topic in General Nursing
I understand...from a distance...BOTH sides of this issue. While seeing different colored/patterned/cartooned scrubs on medical personnel, I used to presume they were nurses. HOWEVER, after becoming a Nursing Librarian I have DEFINITELY learned diffe...
I joined because I wanted to learn about Nursing from the 'after-graduation' nurses' perspective. As a Nursing & Allied Health Librarian I ONLY get to talk with students or faculty and this helps me better understand what all is going on in their...
