It makes tital sense. I'm in Florida. I've worked with A FEW nurses that baffled me. Not knowing really basic things- 5 rights/disposal and sharps/that you cannot abandon your patients bc you are tired/hungry/etc. Have lost count of how many times I'...

I am with you. I wear my old green surgical scrubs out for errands. Everyone cuts a wide path around me and they pull their masks up over their noses, as well. They are comfy. I don't see why anyone should be dressed up to run errands. To ...

You are obviously really intelligent and have real grit. MDS, informatics and research. Also look into Trancendental Meditation. My IQ is way up there. I get impatient and annoyed when people don't get information the first time. I took up TM and i...

i am one of those "please don't use the 'q' word". i fake crying when people say it. i am joking. BUT in nursing school our antique proctor told us to NEVER say quiet.

I give them resources. I take them through how I am required to vet information when I am writing. It's circumspect but it works about half the time. I give them information I have and the tools to find true, reliable sources. So they come away with ...

Derived? Not really. They are adulterated chemical copies of substances that come from plants.

If your kid has seizures CBD can work wonders.

You obviously haven't got a clue what reefer madness refers to. I'm finished responding to you. Have a lovely day.

Actually the term 'marijuana' was part of the whole reefer madness demonization of the plant. The name of the substance is cannabis. It isn't political to call a thing by it's actual name. Great you are pro legalization. Fantastic. Getting everyone t...

And what about the therapeutic compounds in the cannabis plant? Anyone go through the American Cannabis Nurses Association certification? Unlike alcohol, no one has ever died directly from marijuana use. We haven't scratched the surface of the possi...

I was wondering the same thing; which is how I found this thread...if you have nothing to contribute please delete your snarky posts. I have been through a few. I think sports bras work best. I find, despite the expense, good jogging ones are the be...

Because they've had some negative experience with being vaccinated.

blood glucose reading 242. pt: (refusing any intervention)that's my normal blood sugar. I'm just sweet natured. my brother ( worst patient ever) calling me from his remote cabin on top of a mountain an hour drive from any civilization: " I was chopp...

It's Santa Fe College...isn't it? Try Rasmussen, Jersey or Taylor. Yes they are expensive but they are all professional. They are private. They have a vested interest in your success. Pretty sure they are all accredited and most go to BSRN instead of...

I was assaulted by a supervisor. I am a different ethnicity than she. She habitually called me racist nicknames. A patient of her ethnicity called her on it. He was defending me ( his nurse) and being older than her, spoke to her in a chiding manner....

During my LPN program every single person who worked, failed. I don't have family. I don't have any backup. I will do what I must. I already am working 60 + hours a week saving up before my program starts. Crowdfunding isn't for everyone but how nic...

I am bridging from LPN to RN. During orientation we are warned that working is detrimental to school. Our clinical schedule can change without much notice. Our course work is massive. So, distasteful as it may be, private funding is an option. Its no...

I work 12 hours overnight, 5 days a week. A fellow nurse suggested Orgain protein shakes. I love them i mix two servings and keep it in a thermos to keep cold. I just drink a little whenever hunger strikes. Very quick, very healthy, very convenient. ...

Freeze your eggs and go for it travelling!

Thank you! I am bridging to RN and hoping to travel. I am considered excellent by everyone who works with me and would like to stay that way. Thank you for posting good advice.
