2. Anyone else regret becoming a nurse?

   Moriah01 replied to Florida Sun RN's topic in General Nursing

   Before I go to work I feel that way. Then when I start interacting with my patients they make me remember why I do it. I love patient care and taking care of people. I hate feeling like a commodity. Some of these jobs making you feel like they just n...

10. Misusing the low paid nurse

    Moriah01 replied to Saraz23's topic in LPN/LVN

    I'm Michigan so our scoop of practice is vague. I've hung IV antibiotics as well as flushed them. The only thing we can't do is insert a PICC line, pull a PICC line or change the dressing.
