  1. Lazy Coworkers?

    Okay, I think we ALL have had that co-worker we don't like working behind but this is ridiculous! First off, if she is signing off on treatments that were not done you have a responsibility to report them. It isn't about " snitching" or getting peopl...
  2. Seems a little harsh, but it appears we don't know the whole story. BUT! Why would they be documenting they did it when it wasn't done? That is an offense right there. I'm going with a disgruntled family member. Sad.
  3. Entitled Nurses

    I agree 1000%!!! Unfortunately in the career field some think that we deserve NOTHING. That every thing is " part of the job ". Everyone deserves common courtesy and respect.
  4. Should Hospitals Rehire LPNs/LVNs?

    Thank you, which is the point I'm trying to address.
  5. Should Hospitals Rehire LPNs/LVNs?

    " Even though technically I was senior to them" therein lies the problem. Most of what I have read isn't really welcoming . Guess you all Forgot that Lpn/LVNS must study, sit boards and do clinicals. You
  6. Should Hospitals Rehire LPNs/LVNs?

    I honestly believe that one of the first things that NEEDS to happen is that LPN/LVNs need to be acknowledged as NURSES. We had to study, do clinical and sit boards just as our counterparts did.
  7. Should Hospitals Rehire LPNs/LVNs?

    You know what? I read this article and I am really slightly bothered at the tone of the article. Why is there ALWAYS the connotation that LPNs/LVNs are " less than"? I know many an LPN/LVN that have mad skills, and can work circles around anyone! Ye...
  8. Did She Violate Patient Confidentiality?

    Whether she did violate HIPPA is suspect. There are some medical conditions that will appear to be alcohol intoxication. I think she should have just told the sherif about the odor of alcohol and let the sheriff take it from there.
  9. New Nurse: Discouraged and Wanting to Quit

    I so totally understand how you feel! The culture of nursing is definitely a strange one, and is VERY clique oriented. Why I will never know, the CONSTANT arguing who is better- RN OR LPN, trainers being TERRIBLE to new nurses and orientees. The TOT...
  10. New Job Not Working Out

    After your training, will you have to see them again? Will they be a part of your day to day activities? If not, leave them where they are, rise above what they have and haven’t taught you and do your best. Folk like that just aren’t happy with thems...
  11. Anyone encountered this before?

    Just an FYI on a few things 1. When you write something in quotes, it means you are repeating something someone said. It’s not used to “mock” someone at all! 2. WHENEVER you see a doctor’s order that seems unclear to you, get clarification a...
  12. I Left hospital nursing. What are you doing now?

    I am pretty much at the end of my steer. I did long term care for a few years but I’ve had enough. I took a gig with a nursing agency doing COVID screenings in the school system. BEST gig I have ever had! No bosses, no one yelling and being dis...
  13. I agree with every comment! It’s a bait and switch and if you don’t stick to your guns, they will bounce you around to suit their needs. Soooo, no preceptors for day shift but they have one available for night shift? How convenient! My precious emplo...
  14. Said No Nurse Ever

    Right! In fact they really don’t have. REMOTE clue.
