    Read in entirety: Nurse attacked, brutally beaten by Elgin Mental Health Center patient
  3. These psych facilities continue to not get it. You staff for safety in Psych. Sue the facility.
  4. At my facility, we don’t have 400mg Seroquel tabs so we give 2 of the 200mg. if a patient only takes 1, I can’t force them to take 2. in my case if they agree to take 1 instead of 2 that’s what they will get and I will chart it. now if it’s a 300mg t...
  5. Keto diet & pills on ca probation

    Muno, I’ve read and enjoyed your posts for years but in this instance, I don’t even know where to begin to respond. I am a diabetic, wearing a insulin pump right now, intentionally in ketosis, and have been for a long time like many diabetics.

    These fill in nurses crossing the picket line for $840 a day in Chicago. Good money now, but don’t let those 2200 nurses see your face. Don’t cross a picket line.
  8. What are Psych NP/CNS's looking for in Salary/Benefits

  9. patient pretending to fall?

    I deal with fake falls all the time. When they do it, we discontinue all narcs. Narcotics are fall risk drugs and we don't want them to fall again.
  10. Giving insulin late patient request

    If I'm reading it right, it's sliding scale, that's just correcting a high sugar so I totally get that, doesn't matter if they eat or not. Now if it was a scheduled 15 units then I would be curious if what I said above my edit is happening.

    Why? I'd rather be fired and possibly collect unemployment while I seek new job.
  12. Demand for Nurses in Chicago

    Union hospital on top of saturated market. People get hired at Stroger and stay.
  13. Addressing the Predicted Nursing Shortage

    The is no requirement for BSN to obtain magnet status. It is 1 of the biggest lies in nursing next to Joint Commission caring about having a closed bottle at your workstation.
  14. Foreign BA, ADN or ABSN?

    ADN programs at community colleges are extremely difficult to get in to. They are inexpensive and extremely competitive. Accelerated BSN programs are usually expensive, but you'd end with a BSN in the same time-frame.
  15. Fox News calls CNA a nurse

    Every other news source that reported it called her a nurse too. Sadly, the girl is dead. Let's let her be a nurse in memory and not worry about if she was one or not and which news organization reported it.
