   Just btw, this thread is 4 years old at least. Things change rapidly in the EMR world. There's a good chance the original problem looks significantly different now. But the original issues are part of the reason I am now an RN Clinical Analyst and ca...

   haha. brilliant. i don't think anyone here was under the impression that birthing babies = CA. that said, i'd feel more comfortable with my delivering wife not having male nurses. and so would she.

   Notice the post was started "I would be willing to bet..." She didn't state it as a fact. Your suggestion is noted. And moot. The freedom of others to express their opinions is in no way affected by your hurt feelings. If it bothers you that much, ...

   Staffing is very inappropriate in more than one field in 2012. Whoever is responsible ultimately has to be at or above the level where schedules are made, hiring is done, ratios are decided upon, etc. They call those levels "management". Like when p...

   Desire for modesty is not a dysfunctional feeling. It is rather functional.

   No. This is an exaggerated example of the fact that many ppl (not just nurses) are being asked to do too much these days. (Saw it in the teaching field, see it with my wife and friends in their careers... speech therapists, PTs, etc.) But we can't j...

    I was a veteran for 9 years, teacher for 5 in my previous career. In my experience, a single individual who tries to change systemic problems (to me it sounds like the OP is in that situation) almost NEVER is able to do so through official channels. ...

    palmsofvictory replied to Wild Irish LPN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I am a male nurse and I think part of the difference is a male Dr. has usually had the chance to build a relationship with the pt over time (appointments, etc.) A male nurse involved in delivery is more likely than not a complete stranger. Being a ma...

    1. Practice Questions like a beast. 2. Pray & ask God's help with each question. Only He knows what these people are thinking when they write 'em! Good luck!! )
