2. If you can say one thing to your boss, what would it be?

   Daisy Child replied to rn4ever?'s topic in General Nursing

   For the 1st time in my Nursing career (since 2001) I'm thinking about changing my profession. I can't take it anymore. My boss has created a terrible working environment. She has came in and turned our unit upside down. She has given us more change t...

3. Fearful of Licensure in South Carolina

   Daisy Child replied to Tijoux's topic in South Carolina

   I'm having a little trouble with this one. I'm not saying your friend is lying, but I had a good friend who was diverting and was eventually caught. They did everything in their power to help her keep her license. They let her go to rehab the 1st, th...

4. RN positions in SC

   Daisy Child replied to trimeduRN's topic in South Carolina

   It is extremely hard for even an experienced Nurse to get a job right now. I dont think we have a Nursing shortage in our area... we have too many Nurses and not enough jobs. A cousin of mine is a Nursing Instructor and she says she has students who ...

6. OBs doing unnecessary C-Sections and inductions

   Daisy Child replied to a_wallace4's topic in Ob/Gyn

   where i work- it doesnt seem to be an older vs younger ob thing. we have an older ob who accepts medicaid patients and the trend with him is to section 90% of the medicaid patients for one reason or another. he sets a record for the fastest section. ...

7. May be silly questions...

   Daisy Child replied to mommybess's topic in Ob/Gyn

   We have house keepers, but we still have the responsibility of pulling trash and linen when it gets full. I usually just tie up the bags and put them by the door. We also have 4 couplets and occasionally 5. We have to supply the fresh towels, wash cl...

10. Has this ever happened to you?

    Daisy Child replied to Daisy Child's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Those are some wonderful ideas!!! Her plan is to get volunteer's from day shift to come to nights for 8 weeks. She is going to rotate us out.. 3 at a time. So far she has had one Nurse volunteer and the Nurse is one who used to work nights. If she do...

11. Why lvn's /lpn's should not work in labor and delivery

    Daisy Child replied to LNDBSN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I have known LPN's who are better Nurses than many RN's. Sitting in a class room isn't where you learn to be a Nurse. You learn on the floor. LPN's are just as capable of doing anything that an RN can do. They used to run the hospitals years ago, bef...

12. Baby Friendly Hospital

    Daisy Child replied to ragingmomster's topic in Ob/Gyn

    We are in the process and it has been a bumpy road. We get to deal with starving Infants during the night. I don't care what the experts say. I know a hungry baby when I see one and many ARE hungry. Not all mom's produce colostrum right away... the o...

13. Adoptive mom brings in pumped breastmilk to feed baby: what are your thoughts?

    Daisy Child replied to redbeads's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think your hospital is nuts. If this Mother wants to feed her Infant breast milk then that is her business. I'm sure she made sure the milk was coming from a safe donor. Some people are so uptight about breast feeding.

14. Has this ever happened to you?

    Daisy Child posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    i'm almost scared to even post this here, but i really need some advice. i have been a nurse on the l&d/mom-baby unit for 2 years. i've worked both units because, at one point, they were combined. our hospital delivers around 300 babies a month. ...

15. Nurses, are you glad that Obamas Healthcare Bill Passed?

    Daisy Child replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    In all honesty... I am shocked anyone in the medical field would vote yes. I've never met a seasoned Nurse who doesnt agree that Nursing has become too political. When the government sticks it's nose in Healthcare- it will become even more about poli...
