   Nurses Who Smoke Marijuana

   Anona-mouse replied to NenaRK's topic in Recovery

   "....If you smoke pot, you could potentially lose your freedom to practice nursing. Do I think this is right? No. It's ridiculous. Marijauna users are no more likely to have a drug problem than occassional alcohol drinkers....." Despite the numer...

   Evolution and Nursing

   Anona-mouse replied to TheFowldogg's topic in Lounge

   Whether or not I believe in Intelligent Design, I allow for the possibility of some of evolution being possible. But what I find completely unbelievable is Abiogenesis. I find no credibility to the idea that life began from nonliving material. That i...

   Young CNA here: help me understand this union thing

   Anona-mouse replied to ravenpuff's topic in Union

   Just because this particular screen name has only been in use since Feb. does not mean that I have not been a member for a few years. I have posted enough information under my "normal" screen name that I could possibly be identified by friends/co-wor...

   Anona-mouse replied to ravenpuff's topic in Union

   And the union bigwigs will use your dues to pay themselves an outrageous salary, go on political junkets, and to donate to their favorite political party whenever the members agree or not. Then when they decide that YOU have to strike, you do so for ...

   Calling patients and/or co-workers "honey" or "hon"

   Anona-mouse replied to Emergent's topic in Relations

   Even though I grew up in the southern culture and call my female friends " darlin' " and " sweetheart ", I would never use terms of endearment on the floor.

   "compassionate" Atheists...

   Anona-mouse posted a topic in Spirituality

   Am I the only one who is just stymied by atheists who come on this board and yell about how they don't need a deity in order to be caring and compassionate, but then appear to lurk for no other reason but to bash any post by a christian. I have even...

    The *EXPERT* Beginner

    Anona-mouse replied to Kelly_the_Great's topic in Relations

    "D. No, you're becoming a newbie hater" What I'm sick to death of are nurses that generalize about all students and all new nurses while seeming to revel in bashing anybody who would dare step into their unit with anything less than half the experien...

    The Future of Nursing Question

    Anona-mouse replied to On_a_mission92's topic in General Students

    I apologize if misunderstood the intent of your post, I took it to mean that you supported those people being DENIED hospital admission. BTW, the Death Panels are a little known addendum to the Obamacare bill. It allows the formation of panels of "...

    RT over-stepping boundaries?

    Anona-mouse replied to 1RN4Christ's topic in Relations

    There is a BIG difference between a doc and a RT discussing what lab values might mean and a RT interpreting lab values for a patient or family. Even as nurses we have to be careful about telling a patient or family what lab values "mean", lest we st...

    Anona-mouse replied to rn865's topic in HIPAA

    Overwhelmed First Level Nursing Student!!

    Anona-mouse replied to cate3624's topic in General Students

    Buck up! No one promised you that nursing school would be a tea party. You are learning to hold people's LIVES in your hands! They are not just going to let you skate by. Learn the material or change majors to something where a simple mistake will no...
