1. Is this a matter for the State Board?

   WondeRNurse posted a topic in Professionalism

   Sadly, I work with a liar. Everyone knows this coworker is a liar. At least that is what I am told. I have taken the matter to our DON in the past, after watching him/her tell a patient's family member that she did a procedure that, in fact, I had do...

2. The film: Vaxxed.

   WondeRNurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

   Macawake, I appreciate your post, but only because you clearly voiced your opinion (a freedom) out of concern for others' well-being (compassion--a good thing). I will use a quote I heard one doctor say about current treatment of cancer: "You can't f...

3. I Should Be in Jail

   WondeRNurse replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

   It makes me cringe to read , "What have you seen that makes you want to commit assault? " The very question seems to hold within it the essence of violence. I would suggest using a different means of conveying the same question, such as, "What have...

4. Poop Free Nursing Jobs in the Hospital?

   WondeRNurse replied to IcySageNurse's topic in General Nursing

   Maybe you should consider a different vocation. People have poop. They give stool specimens, at the very least, when at a doctor's office. And who is it that takes that poo and puts it on a stick, or digs it out with a stick, and puts drops on it, or...

5. Poop Free Nursing Jobs in the Hospital?

   WondeRNurse replied to IcySageNurse's topic in General Nursing

   I have found that if I take myself out of my *self*, and think about the patient, then my little misery is nothing. I may not like the odor, but perhaps this patient has been defecating profusely due to a condition that has him in dire need of assist...

6. Homeopathy practice?

   WondeRNurse replied to healinghand's topic in Activism

   AUGH! Sleepy me! Agnus, I apologize for my FYI, which was clearly an inappropriate response. I appreciate what you had to share. Please disregard my previous post. (I'm heading to the bed right now!)

7. Homeopathy practice?

   WondeRNurse replied to healinghand's topic in Activism

   FYI, a Naturopath is ND--Naturopathic Doctor. NP is Nurse Practitioner.

8. Homeopathy

   WondeRNurse replied to CharlieNylund's topic in Holistic

   CharlieRN, I suggest you read a book entitled, Vibrational Medicine by Dr. Richard Gerber, MD. In that book you will get exposed to more clinical case studies, and, hopefully, a new awareness of what's really going on in this material world. I am cu...

9. Survey: Do you think the federal government is taking the nursing shortage seriously?

   WondeRNurse replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

   My heart goes out to you and your family. But, FYI, I am taking care of a Nam vet who has been treated pitifully by the VA. His words were: "They throw dirt in my face." Of course, that is from a man who was diagnosed with prostate cancer one year, a...

10. How do you waste medications?

    PLEASE RESPOND! Everyone, talk with your co-workers and friends, families. See what they think, and share here!

11. How do you waste meds? Environmental concerns.

    WondeRNurse posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have been running a thread in the General Nursing Forum regarding how meds are wasted. It has been a concern for the nurses I work with and for others across the nation, as so much goes down the toilet or sink. Some say it goes into the trash, othe...

12. How to set limits on inappropriate pt behaviors

    WondeRNurse replied to RNcDreams's topic in General Nursing

    mpccrn has the right idea, in my mind. After years of psych experience, I have learned that sending the angry energy back to the "problem" only keeps the anger 'fed', and the problem escalates. True control comes from being in control. Another ke...

13. How do you waste medications?

    WondeRNurse replied to WondeRNurse's topic in General Nursing

    neneRN, I had the same idea, to do this as a poll---so I am! Please, anyone reading this thread, hop over to "Nursing Polls" and contribute!!! I believe the environmental concerns are huge, and we are strong. This issue is not going to go away. It ...

14. How do you waste medications?

    WondeRNurse replied to WondeRNurse's topic in General Nursing

    I continue to thank everyone for their reponses and request all viewers to share and/or comment. This is a HUGE ISSUE, and one that can be directly influenced by nurses' actions!!!!! The issue is not going to go away. Rather, it must be dealt with. M...

15. How do you waste medications?

    WondeRNurse replied to WondeRNurse's topic in General Nursing

    I want to thank all of you for contributing your thoughts and experiences. As I told Turtle in Scrubs, we aren't conducting a study, although it sounds like it would be a good idea. I AM unofficially collecting data to support my passion for the envi...
