  1. Climate Change Nursing?

    DannyBoy8 replied to algorhyme's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    If you're geographically restricted to the point that you can't attend an in-person DNP/PhD (really consider the latter) program in a policy hub, you might want to closely examine how you might get...

  2. How do you deal with personal attacks at work?

  3. Any Mormon/LDS nurses here? I need help?

    DannyBoy8 replied to MaryFutureRN's topic in General Nursing

    That's all well and good. Feel free to keep on with that mantra. The rest of us are protected by title VII. Also, cultural practices and distinct from religious ones and aren't one and the same...

  6. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    DannyBoy8 replied to JennaSnow's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    What exactly am I wrong about? NPWH has a very clear and empowering position statement, "Healthcare for Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming Individuals" - ACNM's is wishy washy at best. The scopes...

  7. CNM vs WHNP vs Having Both

    DannyBoy8 replied to JennaSnow's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    From what I've heard, WHNPs are absolutely able to provide HRT to transgender patients , whereas CNMs who do so are practicing in a grey area. ACNM hasn't made an explicit position statement, but the...

  8. What's the nicest compliment you've gotten as a nurse?

    DannyBoy8 replied to NurseNinja1990's topic in General Nursing

    On dayshift a patient requested that they have the same nurse again on nightshift....the one who looks like Clark Kent from Superman....Das

  10. Any Buddhist Nurses?

    DannyBoy8 replied to CriticalJ's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I love the similarities and parallels between Bhuddhism and Christianity - or really between any two different religions. We're all just a stones throw away from one another..

  11. What would you do if nursing staff refuses do carry out your request?

    DannyBoy8 replied to Saflanut's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Post a job advert for a new RN position. Maybe that'll motivate

  12. Any Mormon/LDS nurses here? I need help?

    DannyBoy8 replied to MaryFutureRN's topic in General Nursing

    To OP. Sounds like a Monday-Friday gig would be a good fit for your priorities in life. Get a lot of experience in your area and maybe use that as a bargaining chip to land such an agreement -...

  14. Annoyed by commercial

    DannyBoy8 replied to jodispamodi's topic in General Nursing

    I really want to know where they're getting the money for these primetime commercials. They have been running nonstop in MA. The ad says funding is mainly from the organization of nurse leaders and...

  15. Annoyed by commercial

    DannyBoy8 replied to jodispamodi's topic in General Nursing

    I've posted about this a number of times...check my activity for the threads. The ANA is not 'for nursing'. They're a bunch of suit-wearing DC think tankers who are in bed with the AMA, AHA, etc....

  16. Failed breathalyzer

    DannyBoy8 replied to remorse's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Best of luck with the road ahead. Get help if you're addicted. If this was more of a youthful indiscretion, take whatever steps you can to be a more mature nurse and avoid situations like this (new...

  17. Anti-nurse commercial

    DannyBoy8 posted a topic in Nursing News

    Massachusetts voters will decide on a patient ratio proposition this fall. The opposition (ANA, hospital execs, insurance industry, etc.) recently put out this ridiculous commercial. Featured in it...

  18. Anti-nurse commercial

    DannyBoy8 replied to DannyBoy8's topic in Nursing News

    She spoke directly to the issue at hand, patient ratio reform. You can say something flies in the face of reason if it goes against common sense - i.e. challenging the notion that more nurses = less...

  19. Anti-nurse commercial

    DannyBoy8 replied to DannyBoy8's topic in Nursing News

    Generally speaking, yes, those are "bad things". Posting memes that disparage minimum wage workers is not something I'd like to see in a nurse leader. But, I'm sure that she's very supportive and...

    DannyBoy8 replied to magik01301's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you're spending 5-6 10 hours days on Gtown patho you're doing it wrong. You're going to be hard pressed to find a non-flipped online classroom....that is kind of the point of online adult...

  22. Any jobs that male nurses are "not allowed" to do?

    DannyBoy8 replied to skihan's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Interesting. I know men who are involved with these shelters in a variety of roles. For example, one who is involved with the kiddos and child care programs at the facilities. A responsible,...

  23. Student loans killing me!! stressed!

  24. Doctor Hiring NP's

    DannyBoy8 replied to DO89's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The Inception effect? A turf war within a turf war, within another turf war. Leo would be proud. Prior RN experience has been studied...it doesn't matter. Get off your Seabiscuit, he has been...

  25. Hiring manager offered position, HR said no and won't tell me why.

    DannyBoy8 replied to MiloRN's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe try completely different references for the next go around and see if that makes a difference. Could give you some insight into whether or not they're the reason....i.e. telling you one story...
