1. Implied/actual 'Right' for nurses to 'Do' Hands-on Procedures.

   It's like a Vit C replied to James W.'s topic in General Students

   @James W.I posted this in the thread Cowboy made that you are referring to... Simply put, this topic is about sexism. Sexism is discrimination and/or prejudice against another based solely on one's sex. Cowboy and/or James W, can you honestly tell ...

2. Why is it "legal" for patient to decline male nurses?

   It's like a Vit C replied to carti's topic in General Students

   That's the point I'm trying to make. I just want the OP or other posters to come to this conclusion on their own.

3. Why is it "legal" for patient to decline male nurses?

   It's like a Vit C replied to carti's topic in General Students

   Simply put, this topic is about sexism. Sexism is discrimination and/or prejudice against another based solely on one's sex. Cowboy and/or James W, can you honestly tell me that you feel your fundamental rights are violated when a female refuses yo...

4. Why is it "legal" for patient to decline male nurses?

   It's like a Vit C replied to carti's topic in General Students

   That and "Why don't you want to be a doctor?"

5. Why is it "legal" for patient to decline male nurses?

   It's like a Vit C replied to carti's topic in General Students

   Honestly, I have never felt the least bit insulted whenever a patient of mine refused care due to the fact that I am male. I don't view it as discrimination. Regardless of past trauma history or whatever, it just makes sense to me that some people ...

6. OB/Maternal be an elective class for male nursing students

   It's like a Vit C replied to carti's topic in General Students

   Well, I take back everything I said in your defense. I'm sure you will no doubt make a stellar nurse when you rely on the education of others. After all, that's "literally why they have doctors for."

7. OB/Maternal be an elective class for male nursing students

   It's like a Vit C replied to carti's topic in General Students

   I feel most people on this thread need to calm down. The OP's post is ignorant... but seemingly unintentionally (that's a joke). It doesn't seem worthwhile to start calling people insensitive and wishing never to be in their care. I think the natu...

8. 5 things would have detered nurse from killing

   It's like a Vit C replied to Emergent's topic in Headlines

   I personally believe she should not have been given the means to further her own narrative and agenda through this article. To claim that more regulating of insulin would have prevented her from killing people is most likely not true. Then she move...

9. Working as an online nursing tutor

   It's like a Vit C replied to It's like a Vit C's topic in General Nursing

   I have, and I think the commitment in being an actual faculty member, be it online or in-person, would be too much for me right now.

10. Working as an online nursing tutor

    It's like a Vit C posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello All, I have been thinking of getting some type of a side job that I could do from home. (I am currently a PMHNP full time). I like teaching students and have some experience with it and thought that online nursing tutoring may be a good optio...

11. Pt fell and I think its my fault

    It's like a Vit C replied to Jen and Larry's topic in LPN/LVN

    One of the biggest take aways from this incident should be to never chart that you gave a med if you didn't actually give it. From an outsiders perspective (I'm not accusing you of this), but it may seem in this incident that you're trying to cover ...

12. PMHNPs, what is a typical day like for you?

    It's like a Vit C replied to justsaiyanRN's topic in NP

    I work outpatient only. I typically see about 15-20 medication management appointments a day for the people on my own caseload. The times for each appointment vary on complexity and the history I have with the client (typically 5-20 minutes). No t...

13. I am not satisfied with my assigned preceptorship unit

    It's like a Vit C replied to Nabeelaodu's topic in General Students

    You are putting entirely too much weight on this situation. Nursing is almost all learned on the job after graduation. Get what you can out of the experience and move on towards graduation.

14. Hand Massages

    It's like a Vit C replied to saraaileen76's topic in General Nursing

    I think that's absurd! I understand the hypothetical benefit to the patient but to expect a nurse to have the time to massage people's hands is unreasonable. Do they really want you to chart that or are you exaggerating?

15. Amazon Textbook Rentals?

    It's like a Vit C replied to longwayup's topic in General Students

    Great service! I highly recommend it. They have everything, prices are good an the books were in good condition. It's so much cheaper than buying and you aren't left with a stack of books that become worthless in a year or two. Figure out which books...
