  1. Bullies at the work place.. vent

    I've been having a bit of an issue with this one nurse that I follow, 95% of the time (we both have set schedules so I usually take report from her and give her report when I'm going off). I don't know what to do about it as I don't want to "report h...
  2. What are the best shoes for nursing?

    My feet/knees/legs have been saved by Danskos and Sanita clogs! I swear by them! Check out clog outlet.com. They sell Sanita clogs as factory 2nds; I got mine for basically 1/2 off and I can't find a thing wrong with them to make them so low-cost! Si...

    I'm currently precepting in my first RN job and what I've seen my preceptor do at times like you're describing is if she hasn't gotten all her assessments done and it's time for meds is she'll pull meds for those pts she still needs to assess (we rep...

  11. Ever have a patient that "turns" on you?

    This same thing happened to me once when I was a PCA. Good rapport with the patient, all going well, etc then BAM! I come in the next day and she's a little icy to me, I ask her if she needs anything, could I do anything else for her, etc (I always a...
