    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    NurseBlaq replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    I asked a valid question and you wrote a whole "whoa is me you trivialized my complaint" thesis. It is a valid question! We don't live your life nor know your circumstances so the question is raised....

    Transgender man has stillbirth

    NurseBlaq replied to DaveICURN's topic in General Nursing

    I had to read this two or three times. I think I got it now. Yes, we need to ask patients their biological sex as part of their medical history. Not to be asinine but to be safe for the patients and...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    NurseBlaq replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    The South and Midwest don't have surpluses. There are several places that have shortages, some severe. The real question is are you willing to relocate? Some people have said they're hiring in their...

    NurseBlaq replied to NurseBlaq's topic in Nursing News

    Not only is it a travesty she was sexually assaulted a second time, there was a woman harassing her and feeding her attacker information. I'm livid for

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    NurseBlaq replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    They were saying BSN was going to be new entry level nursing back when I was in high school. Several years later, still the same. LPN/LVN, ADN, etc schools still exist. However, I will say some...

    Difficulty with coworker

    NurseBlaq replied to CommunityRNBSN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm thinking the co-worker has an AN account. At the same time, the irony of posting while at work about her also not doing her job while at work is

    How much math is actually used in Nursing school and at the job site?

    NurseBlaq replied to nay018's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Math is used daily to make sure things are right and the patient is safe. Pharmacy doesn't always send the exact dosage and it's up to you to know better. Also, pharmacy sometimes makes mistakes and...

    And The Reason Nurses Don't Get Fired

    NurseBlaq replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    Nurse did not get fired for stealing a whole pharmacy shipment of oxycontin, percocet, and morphine tablets. Instead of reporting the nurse, building administration was dumpster diving because she...

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    You are absolutely right, hence why I said "symptoms of" and didn't definitively state a diagnosis. Just made an

    Does size matter (Gloves nurses, gloves!)

    NurseBlaq replied to guest825264's topic in General Nursing

    I would call the board of nursing and ask them what they think about this...... that's after I find a new

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    I saw that as a sidebar jab but you said you didn't mean it as such so I'm leaving it alone. Let's move on from that. I was just responding to another

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    You haven't physically harmed the patient or prohibited her care so I honestly don't see this being a major faux

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't begrudge what he said in the OP, I found fault with the sidebar jabs and the immediate insult as a result of pointing it out. We've all been in adverse positions at work. Can't say you work...

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    Even as a nurse you may be upset but you still have to be mindful of where you're at and not offend the patients. Despite how you feel or what you meant to say the patient was offended. Apologizing...

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    You just proved my point. Dyslexic is people misreading things, not interpretation which is what you're trying to be a smart Al about. I wholeheartedly believe you said something offensive. I made an...

    BON and alleged verbal abuse via pt

    NurseBlaq replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    Yet you continue to type offensive, subliminal jabs which leads me to believe your tone and intent were condescending and disrespectful. People know when they should be offended and when others say...

    Feeling embarrassed, ask the md a stupid question

    NurseBlaq replied to RobertJo's topic in General Nursing

    Don't be embarrassed. It's best to ask & err on the side of caution than not to ask and pretend to know it all. None of us are perfect and know everything. If you have a question, call and ask. It...
