1. Verbally abusive patient, worried I could have handled the situation better

   l1234567 replied to NurseMom2016's topic in General Nursing

   I don't understand why people are so angry at the doctor. It was the smartest thing to possibly do (giving the coffee). It calmed him down, and stopped the situation from continuing to escalate. She also even made the coffee and give it herself allow...

2. Surrendered RN license

   l1234567 replied to Elanas888's topic in Criminal

   I don't work in England. But as far as AUS go there's no way you could do any of those things without an RN license. Your best bet would be to do a post grad in public health and do that instead, your degree in nursing would be a positive but you wou...

3. An external student(distance education) in Australia but want to move to the US afterwards

   l1234567 replied to Perlas's topic in International

   I have met a few nurses who dos meet the criteria for BSN-RN with just an undergraduate degree. Did have to sit NCLEX. They all had quite a bit of experience though. I'm unsure if they did distance but I'm unsure if it would matter. None of them enjo...

4. Does anyone else ever envy their patients?

   l1234567 replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

   I have the feeling looking at op's threads that she may work in a posh retirement home of sorts that have nurses on staff to help on a as need basis. Therefore not a real LTC. I think that would make a lot more sense looking at her posts through thos...

5. Worst shift, now depressed.

   Why do you have three pts as an ICU nurse!!!? P.s the pts map should be at Minimum >60 always (at least where I work)

6. 10 months as An assistant nurse, still getting scolded.. so discouraging..

   l1234567 replied to Jellyunicorntoast's topic in Relations

   Also op, incase as a new grad you're not familiar with the areas I suggested I thought I might break it down Mental health inpatients: usually one set of obs done per shift MH and physical. Tiny chance of a code. All interventions that are of risk ar...

   l1234567 replied to Jellyunicorntoast's topic in Relations

   Okay so our American friends don't know what an EEN is. But I do. Firstly EENs are not assistant nurses. I'm wondering why you would say that? That is an AIN. A completely different role and a misrepresentation. Secondly, I've never found a EEN that ...

8. I'd like an RN's Input on Professionalism, please

   l1234567 replied to ManWithNoUserName's topic in Professionalism

   I recommend against that!! Last thing I would want is to be annoyed by anyone on my lunch break. See if there is a careers day or networking event. I think the assignment is a little silly if you're not on prac. i would answer your assignment questio...

9. I am not proud of my track record.

   Also op I have looked at a few Bon sites. One included Mississippi http://www.msbn.ms.gov/DscAction/dis2015.pdf lookd like minimum of suspension

10. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure how voluntarily surrending your license and studying something completely different doesn't seem like fair advice. Also the OP has not said the school has been notified etc. so I think it is fair advice to not disclose it to the school. ...

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Anyway good luck OP.

12. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Yes but she may be able to get credit towards another program. But I'm not from the US. If she gets a good lawyer and revokes her license she may not get what I'm assuming is referred onto criminal charges. I would recommend her self revoking her lic...

13. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    I would finish your degree and see if you can do graduate entry. Try teaching highshool biology and English. They can take away your license but they can't take away your degree- you will definitely limit your options by dropping out. I highly doubt ...

    What do you mean by millennial generation? There has been ethically challenged people from the beginning of time... It's not a generational issue at all

15. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Fair point, but should we really be quoting 'dr' phil? He's not such a great example of an ethical practitioner. It's like Jerry springer but 'better'
