   I don't think anyone has ever questioned that theory, I don't know what to say now . Don't women go crazy post menopause?. My new theory: Half the women in nursing are hormonal, while the other half are just plain crazy. Please, please, please ...

2. MRSA exposure???

   Tash4nvyblues replied to moviefan2000's topic in General Nursing

   An incident report should definitely be filled out no matter how minor the incident seems at the time. And this girl should seek medical advice. My question is, as has already been mentioned, where were the universal precautions in this situation. ...

   I know I am in trouble here, but I am qualified to speak here, as I am one. Nursing is still predominantly female, and you know what we can be like every four weeks :argue:. I will retreat now:D

   :chuckle You are very brave, very legitimate question though, I probably would have left out the whining part cause that will ruffle a few feathers. If you have read some of the posts on this site, then you probably have already had some insight into...

7. Urgggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!

   Tash4nvyblues replied to Bella36RN's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks for letting me know, that is really sad, is there any nursing body that Bella can go to at all. Surely there has to be some place that you nurses can go to, to protect yourselves from these situations, because you can't expect an experienced ...

   [color=#a0522d] bowel prep!! for a client out in the community, with a colostomy/ileostomy, who doesn't have a lot of experience with caring for the stoma, because they are often temporary. you can imagine the state we walk into when that bag ...

   Tash4nvyblues replied to Bella36RN's topic in General Nursing

   Bella, I posted a little earlier regarding your thread, I can understand why you would be getting a little frustrated with the thread, because it does seem to be turning into a debate, rather then constructive advice. You obviously don't have a lot ...

10. New Grad feels lost... not cut out for nursing?

    Tash4nvyblues replied to soffy's topic in New Nurse

    Soffy, it sounds like you are feeling really down right now and like things are not going to get better, and it sounds like there are a few others on this thread that are in the same boat as you, which means you are not alone. Even though it probabl...

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Nursey2b3's topic in General Nursing

    You have done nothing wrong in this situation, every patient has the right to a second opinion and to choose what surgeon they wish to go under. There is no reason for you to worry that you will be fired from your job. I would have done the same as...

13. Help! I need career (change) advice

    Tash4nvyblues replied to uscstu4lfe's topic in General Nursing

    I agree 100%. I maintain that every nurse should have at least 2 yrs of acute nursing before thinking about moving to areas, such as rehab, homecare, psych nursing or primary health. The clinical and assessment skills gained during these years are ...

14. Very disrespectful !!!

    Tash4nvyblues replied to RedhairedNurse's topic in General Nursing

    That is unfortunate, I think we have all been in your situation, There are some nurses out there, where it doesn't matter what you do for them, they will never be satisfied with the work you've done. Their goal in life is to make others feel incompe...

15. Is the FDA failing?

    Tash4nvyblues replied to BradleyRN's topic in General Nursing

    The FDA will continue to fail, if this legislation goes through that the pharmaceutical companies cannot be sued, and it will go through, because the pharmaceutical lobby has far too much power. The FDA will still pass unsafe drugs because the pharm...
