   bsveillon replied to Mini-Murse's topic in General Nursing

   I once gave an injection, back when I was still intimidated by older nurses and Doctors, And I was told to give a Morphine injection, when I went to check the chart for myself for drug allergies, I...

2. Have you ever been insulted for what you do?

   bsveillon replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in General Nursing

   Yeah, I saw a DON tell that to a patient one time in the ER, he told him, "Please, next time, finish the job so we won't be forced to take you any more." I told him he was a sorry excuse for a nurse...

   bsveillon replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in General Nursing

   Well, that's probably another thread, but I'll say it anyway. Non-nursing folks, including patients and family members, wouldn't have any opinions about different licenses if the industry wouldn't put...

   bsveillon replied to purplesteth's topic in General Nursing

   I tend to believe you would have a huge advantage getting a job in a "closer to normal" market- if for nothing else, you're experience. I know when I'm in the hospital, I am very picky about the...

   bsveillon replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in General Nursing

   I get comments all time about being "Just" an LPN. I was told last week, "You should really consider become an R.N. because you're too good to be just and L.P.N." I've nurses I've known for a long...

   bsveillon replied to gayle_the_RN's topic in General Nursing

   Lol. Very funny. Ok, You're right, My mistake. Well, You're right and wrong. Right, I misread your comment, wrong about my "MO" being drama. but anyway, have a good day. P.S., the point is, I'm not...

10. Okay, why do ER nurses think they're so cool?

    bsveillon replied to gayle_the_RN's topic in General Nursing

    What I call drama is taking something small and making it big. If calling your job "Easy" is the WORST and MOST DISRESPECTFUL thing you've heard from a fellow nurse, then you must lead a very boring...

    bsveillon replied to gayle_the_RN's topic in General Nursing

    How simple is that? The concept simple to me. OH! Don't let anyone else read this- this might beat me out for being "the most disrespectful thing I've heard from a fellow nurse". How dare
