   Justus replied to eddy's topic in Geriatric

   Eddy - you honor all ! I wish I could say that your post surprised me but frankly I've seen it all before. There are good/ bad LTC's but in my experience the scales tip in the bads favor. As to the question of how do they get away with it... This...

   Justus replied to inna's topic in Relations

   Re:RN34TX I had to reread your post(s) and must admit you were somewhat right about "haste". To conserve space I won't quote the posts in their entirety. It is so hard to tell on b.b. when one is being a smart a$$...truely I'm not. I mean this with ...

5. Rude Cna To Nurses

   Justus replied to inna's topic in Relations

   RN34TX...To read your post you are of the opinion that "all CNA's are jealous and have low self esteem" and that there is some reason why they did not become nurses. Although I agree with everything else, to state the aforementioned is stereotyp...

8. Rude Cna To Nurses

   Justus replied to inna's topic in Relations

   Not sure I understand, is that to say that you would open the can on a CNA and overlook your fellow RNs? I agree that it is "infuriating" and there is no room for it. Which brings me back, yet again, to why is this type thing so common and acceptable...

    "It turns out the tech had been fired at one point, and her family threatened to sue for wrongful dismissal..." How old was the tech that her family could sue in her place? "However, I do not go to work to be demeaned and belittled, so I quit."...

12. Forced Csection Paper

    Justus replied to Miya Lusk's topic in Kentucky

    I had toxemia with my first 2 pregnancies and all the symtoms of it with my 3rd BUT midwife told me that because 2-3 had the same father there wasn't a chance of it with the 3rd baby. Never made any sense to me. Also, I talked to a nurse that said ...

13. Forced Csection Paper

    Justus replied to Miya Lusk's topic in Kentucky

    http://www.ican-online.org Maybe this will help? I have always questioned my c-sections. I was told that my pelvis was "too small"- FYI- hard to imagine as big boned as I am!

14. CNA's in KY LTCF

    Justus posted a topic in Kentucky

    If you have ever worked in LTC you have seen it all. Staff shortages, neglect and abuse top the list. Some nurses / CNA's do it because they love it, some because "it pays more than Wally World". In truth I think the latter started with the best inte...

15. Horrible breach of personal confidentiality!

    Justus replied to ferfer's topic in General Nursing

    Perhaps give it a cooling off period first and then tactfully confront your "friend"- be thankful for her concern but firm in the importance of your privacy. Then I would contact my attorney, and have him contact the doctor/lab. Thats a wake up call....
