Seems simple enough when you explain it like that but it (the blue side) won't accept my password nor let me start a new account because my e-mail is already in use.
Have you tried asking at the help desk? Link is in the grey area at the bottom of the page.
Ew that's creepy! Why would she be doing that?! I admit I'll occasionally Google screen names to see if people are legit. I've looked up myself and my husband, but I think that's actually good policy to know how much info a person will find on you online. (He's in law enforcement - can't be too careful!) But I couldn't imagine digging on another parent in my kids' lives. That's so invasive and rude.
I'm glad to even here that you agree with how creepy your actions and actions of others are. Even though it doesn't bother me, half of the stuff out there is untrue but some of it is. Thank you for pointing out my negligence.
BTW, I received an A on my assignment. As stated before, it didn't matter if the person who answered the questions were truly a nurse or not. The assignment was based on the response not the content of the question .
Another point my research shows that lateral bullying by nurses not only exist in the hospital but even exist in nursing social networks. Everyone knows how hard it is to be a nurse. The tiger eats her young mindset has to go away. In order to be respected as a professional, one must act professionally
As for the people who do not understand where hospice nursing and public health nursing tie together. In today's society, the goal is to keep the patient in their home. Therfore hospice nurses are out in the public and they are nursing. Research has shown that many hospice nurses were either a public health nurse at one time or vise versa.
Is it too early for the drinking game, Farawyn, Ixchel? What if it's mimosas?
Congrats on your A, OP. Best of luck to you through the rest of your program.
Oh man, you got there first!
It is kinda early here but I'm off hospice call so . . . :)
Interesting little thread here. I do agree that hospice and public health are linked in a way.
However, I don't think that the OP can judge the response here based simply on THIS thread. The responses are directly related to how many nursing students come here to have someone do their homework. The history of these kinds of questions plays a part in the responses.
So, the OP's idea that we are being mean and that NETY is alive and well is based on faulty information.
I'm hoping the OP has or will take some nursing research/statistics classes and learn about the null hypothesis as well.
