  2. What's the RIGHT answer to this clinical scenario?

    osceteacher replied to OregonRN91's topic in General Nursing

    In the UK here so might be slight changes in procedure but we would instantly trigger an immediate review from the doctor and our nurse outreach team. Those numbers are an early warning score of 10+...

  3. Dr. Pimple Popper Thinks Nurses Have No Place Educating Patients

    osceteacher replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in General Nursing

  4. Huddle being used as a disciplinary tool

    osceteacher replied to Zay's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Yes, this is normal practice imo. We had someone attach an IV to an art line and an art line to their peripheral canula, it was in the morning huddle. To be fair, there was no naming and shaming but...

  6. To Vaccinate Or Not To Vaccinate, That Is The Question

    osceteacher replied to Joe V's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That globalresearch article is the utter worst of causation=/=correlation fallacies. A terrible article that anyone should be embarrassed to link. Its also notoriously anti-semetic, pseudoscientifc,...

  10. RN in Medical School -Should I keep this to myself?

    osceteacher replied to RNthenDoc's topic in General Nursing

    osceteacher replied to Joe V's topic in Disaster Preparation

    90,000 people died because of measles in 2016, but sure, generally speaking its not drastic. Yeah, I see, Tetorifice shots are kinda pointless. Polio still occurring, its almost like they should sell...

    osceteacher replied to RNthenDoc's topic in General Nursing

    osceteacher replied to Joe V's topic in Disaster Preparation

    No, the silly logic is equating a kitchen item with military style

  16. Dayton Ohio Shooter's Own Sister Megan Betts and Nursing Student Lois Oglesby Among Victims

    osceteacher replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Nursing News

    But you're okay with the strict access to cars though right? you're okay that there are tests before you get to drive a car? Or we should just allow people to go in to a shop and buy a car and use

  17. Dayton Ohio Shooter's Own Sister Megan Betts and Nursing Student Lois Oglesby Among Victims

  22. Does Being a Nurse Remove Your Constitutional Right to Free Speech? The Carolyn Strom Case.

    osceteacher replied to steven007's topic in Nursing News

    The thread title is misleading to say the least, this has nothing to do with free speech as its written in the constitution, even if it was in America which it isn't. This is pretty harsh on initial...

    osceteacher replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    I really don't need any more information than 'Nurse administered 2000mcg of Fentanyl', that is more than enough to know you should lose your job. There isn't a circumstance or situation in the world...
