  1. DNR/DNI: What Age Would You Choose to No Longer Be Full Code?

    CardiacUnderground replied to LollaPaupRN's topic in General Nursing

    I do not think there is a set age, although I think it's based on condition. I see patients who are in their 70s who are in better condition than myself and are vibrant and full of life. Perhaps they...

  2. Bringing infant on job search...

    CardiacUnderground replied to katie1twin's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    You're too funny. I have a 2 year old and I've contemplated bringing him to class meetings just because I couldn't find a sitter. I always ended up skipping I know where you're coming

  3. A Change of Heart

    CardiacUnderground replied to nursemike's topic in General Nursing

    A family friend of ours has been an ICU nurse at AGH for 30 years. She told me last week "I take care of some of the sickest people in the world." I guess you were one of them! They have an intense...

  4. Demoted from ICU to IMCU

    CardiacUnderground replied to TiffanyB1313's topic in General Nursing

    That's your professional opinion but it's very judgmental of new nurses that you don't know. That's like saying "only nurses with BSNs should be hired because they have more education therefore they...

  5. IBCLC ?

    CardiacUnderground posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    I posted this in pediatric nursing because I couldn't find anything breastfeeding related (I could have simply overlooked it) but I'm finishing up my senior year of nursing school and I want to become...

  6. IBCLC ?

    CardiacUnderground replied to CardiacUnderground's topic in Ob/Gyn

    No that's exactly what i wanted to know, thank you. That's extremely similar to my situation actually. Had a baby in 2015, wanted to be a lactation consultant, went back to school in 2016 and finish...

  7. IBCLC ?

    CardiacUnderground replied to CardiacUnderground's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm sorry, 90 hours lactation specific classes and 1000 hours clinical experience, it's pathway #1 for health care professionals. Did your employer help you complete the process and submit your...

  8. IBCLC ?

    CardiacUnderground replied to CardiacUnderground's topic in Ob/Gyn

    It mentioned that I would need to obtain 300 hours of direct clinical supervision and 90 hours of lactation class, so who would I report these to and how do I prove it? Like do they need to be...

  9. Under the Covers: My Experience With Post-op Pain Control

    CardiacUnderground replied to Brenda F. Johnson's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry your son experienced so much pain, it is illegal for us to allow the family of patients to press the button for PCA and by saying you have "friends" who prescribed him meds does indicate a...

  10. Husband is not ready for me to go to nursing school!!

    CardiacUnderground replied to hamolady's topic in General Students

    Listen, tell him you're going to do it and he's going to help you. Tell him you will pay him back tenfold once you finish your goals and start making excellent money. I would never let somebody get in...

  11. Can stupid people pass nursing school?

    CardiacUnderground replied to countrygirl1234's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My report card in high school went A,B,C,D. When I went to college (undergrad, not nursing related) I received a F in biology. In algebra in high school I got a C ONLY because I cried and begged my...
