1. Need help

   livefully replied to Hunk's topic in General Nursing

   Unchart it, and write a comment saying why. It sounds like you didn't have the pt on that day and you accidentally charted, right?

2. Labs/Blood Gases

   livefully replied to salaw's topic in NICU

   Could I please have a copy too? Thanks in advance!!

3. How far should I further my education?

   livefully replied to ccarda's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Rock on, TheCommuter! LOL, I was under the (mistaken, apparently) impression that nurses tend to stick in a niche once there. Like once an L&D nurse, always an L&D nurse, but I see what you're saying.

4. Nauseous vs Nauseated (another grammar lesson)

   livefully replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

   How about "could of"? Drives me nuts.

5. How far should I further my education?

   livefully replied to ccarda's topic in Pre-Nursing

   That is an interesting assignment. Is the school affiliated with the site? Anyway, specializing is generally done once you graduate, so no additional expenses. I'm also not quite sure what you mean by "general RN".

6. Easy to get a job

   livefully replied to englishgeek's topic in General Nursing

   I'm sure people do. But the vast majority of us suffered through months of unemployment. So, lovely for you, but certainly not the norm.

7. 2 job offers

   livefully replied to Bbddll13's topic in New Nurse

   Another vote for home health!

8. I'm panicking! Now I can't resign!

   livefully replied to perfexion's topic in General Nursing

   I also realized that your job is cushy. Where is it haha?

9. So dietitians can now write orders: Denial of rights.

   livefully replied to puravidaLV's topic in Relations

   What was the order?

10. Got an interview but...I'm not so excited anymore

    livefully replied to Catch22Personified's topic in General Nursing

    FWIW, I would encourage you to go to the interview. You never know how you will feel afterwards. It may be the best interview you ever had, or you might feel the grass is greener where you are.

11. I'm panicking! Now I can't resign!

    livefully replied to perfexion's topic in General Nursing

    I would go up higher in the chain of command as well as give a dated, signed copy to HR. Leave a message on her phone and email her a copy with explanation that it's not ideal, but it's the best you can do. I am a newbie to health care, so take thi...

12. Please stop! Little things that are just bad practice.

    livefully replied to JBudd's topic in Professionalism

    Thanks! I'll avoid it in the future.

13. Please stop! Little things that are just bad practice.

    livefully replied to JBudd's topic in Professionalism

    Could you please share why the first one is bad if you've scrubbed the port?

14. IV tubing port selection for Y-site

    livefully replied to DatMurse's topic in General Nursing

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the drugs are incompatible, the shouldn't be run in the same line, no? And I would use the site closest to the pt to Y-site it in

15. Healthy Snacks

    livefully replied to NurseKateC's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's Orville (sp?) that has microwaveable kettle corn. It's sweet and salty and oh so yummy lol. I also like LaraBars. A bit pricey, and definitely high calorie, but natural ingredients etc.
