1. TV drug ad study

   Lawnurse replied to sunnyjohn's topic in General Nursing

   lol :) The law has to try to 'accomodate' all people, including people who aren't very smart. It was only a short while into my nursing career when I realized that human beings have an infinite capacity to be stupid, and no matter what you think th...

2. Verbal Contract Valid????

   Lawnurse replied to bise75's topic in Travel

   What her obligations are is the issue. If there are circumstances that void the contract, or there are circumstances under which a court is unwilling to enforce a contract, her obligations could change. I'm not saying a court would rule it inequitabl...

3. Verbal Contract Valid????

   Lawnurse replied to bise75's topic in Travel

   "weasal out"? Her son is recovering from EYE SURGERY. I'm sure the OP would rather her son did NOT have eye surgery so that she could easily fulfill the contract...I doubt she is celebrating the eye injury... Gosh, I brag about lacking compassion (he...

4. Verbal Contract Valid????

   Lawnurse replied to bise75's topic in Travel

   I'm not saying she had no contract - exactly the opposite. Verbal contracts are nonetheless contracts. The OP is definatly bound by the contract. However, there are extenuating circumstances here, and the existance of those circumstances may affect t...

5. More Strange Baby Names

   Lawnurse replied to RNLaborNurse4U's topic in Ob/Gyn

   This also happens in a Beverly Cleary Ramona book - no actual baby-naming, but Ramona wonders who the Smo King is and why he isn't allowed. :)

6. TV drug ad study

   Lawnurse replied to sunnyjohn's topic in General Nursing

   And drug companies need a way to pay for it all this research. Drug companies create new drugs because they bring in money. Where else would we get new drugs if drug companies did not have an incentive to make them? BTW, although my opinion may sound...

7. More Strange Baby Names

   Lawnurse replied to RNLaborNurse4U's topic in Ob/Gyn

   It seems to me that even someone without a lot of formal education has been in a grocery store and seen the jello box...its not an expensive food. Secondly, when people are sounding out words, they do so by finding a part of the word, or letter, that...

   It's part of the Miranda rights - the stuff they have to tell you when they get arrested and taken into custody. 1. You have the right remain silent 2. Anything you say can be held against you in court 3. You have the right to the presence of an atto...

   Criminal court. Crimes are heard in criminal court, where all defendants are entitled to a free lawyer.

10. Very angry

    Lawnurse replied to labman's topic in Men

    Knowing there will be some false accusations, our justice system provides every defendant a FREE lawyer. As well as the right to call witnesses to back up their own story, and the right for their own lawyer to shred to other witnesses to peices on th...

    I bet the admis. office of those schools would LOVE to tell you their rank - perhaps you could call them.

12. Male Nurse and OB/GYN ? Is this okay ?

    Lawnurse replied to earthlovers123's topic in Ob/Gyn

    There are MANY male MDs who are OBGYNs - women docs don't dominate that specialty in medicine...should nursing be any different? IMHO, perhaps a male obgyn nurse would have a little bit of uphill battle, but if there's something admin, fellow staff, ...

13. Completely innaccurate report!

    Lawnurse replied to Rocknurse's topic in General Nursing

    Rocknurse, you did exactly the right thing by calling the PACU nurse (in case there was some reasonable explanation) and then writing up an incident report, esp. considering she did not take the blame for her mistake. Whether or not the incident repo...
