   Is it legal for a hospital to tell RNs after they have completed their shift that they cannot go home but must stay at the hospital but NOT get paid. Sounds like a hostage situation. How can this be legal.

   Thanks for sharing this. And thanks for 'caring' about the person! You made a difference in their life and memories because of it. 'I always make that "time" before we leave with a patient." Please keep this resolve. As a patient, we cannot always do...

   That wife and daughter will be forever grateful (along with the husband) for that moment that you were so compassionate to give to them. How many people are haunted by NOT having that last minute to say something to their loved ones. We 'think' we c...

   GOMER42Re: Certified Medication Technician It takes a lot to remember all the information about meds. I think CMA's would be useful if they had more extensive schooling. A lot of medical professionals are intimidated by their existence. It births a ...

   I very much appreciate your understanding. I would do anything not to feel this way. I always had such positive experiences with great people and it makes me so angry to think one person has destroyed the wonderful trust I always had.

    Medication is a hugh responsibility. I need to know a lot more about this issue before I can comment on it again. However, I did come across the word 'assessing' which I have a LOT of questions about. Anyone interested in this as a thread please resp...

15. Blow out at the desk, who was at fault? both share blame I think?

    jennyanydot replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    definitely, you did the correct thing (in my opinion). hard to believe someone would go to such lengths to justify their actions for such an obvious mis-step. six to nine months is not a lot of experience no matter how much schooling you've had. i'm ...
