    Daisy Joyce replied to NewRN'16's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My own wee “straw poll” at work also indicates that most of us won’t be taking the vaccine, and are willing to leave nursing. And in reply to an above poster, we are willing to mask up, and...

    Nursing and being a youtuber

    Daisy Joyce replied to xlightx's topic in General Nursing

    Diabetic Students - WHEN TO CALL PARENTS?

    Daisy Joyce replied to pineappleupsidedowncake's topic in School

    I’m a sub nurse, so I always call, because I don’t know who the nervous parents are. But I’ll leave a message on the machine. They like to be kept in the loop. The nurses I sub for also like...

    Because you mentioned “praying with the EM”, I’m going to answer you based on that frame. OTOH, it’s nice that you formed a bond with an lonely older lady. You probably brought a lot of joy...
