   CocoBug20 replied to Accolay's topic in General Nursing

   'But do you just throw text books away, who wants old ones? And then I find books from the 1800's, a family bible from the late 1700's, coins from the 1870's, I can see my kids tossing these, but...

2. Sexual harrassment or just an old creep?

   CocoBug20 replied to CBlover's topic in General Nursing

   Most people wouldn't think of it like that old men using inappropriate endearments are 'just being friendly' and 'grew up in a different environment'..........old ladies doing the same are considered...

3. Gender Discrimination Against Nurses or Other Healthcare Providers?

   CocoBug20 replied to CocoBug20's topic in General Nursing

   No, so many things that patients can do disrupts the ideally smooth workings of a unit. Not every request can be accommodated, but do they have the right to make it? I know that special requests make...

4. Gender Discrimination Against Nurses or Other Healthcare Providers?

   CocoBug20 replied to CocoBug20's topic in General Nursing

6. Michigan hospital sued after honoring woman's request for "white nurse only"

   CocoBug20 replied to klone's topic in Nursing News

   No, I didn't realize I had to quote the post I was replying to. I had assumed clicking reply meant 'reply to this post' instead of reply to the entire thread. Beyond that I have no idea what you...

7. Michigan hospital sued after honoring woman's request for "white nurse only"

   CocoBug20 replied to klone's topic in Nursing News

   Uh, there is a big difference between being a racist jerk and trying to follow your religious convictions, I'd say. A Muslim woman wouldn't refuse your care because she considered you inherently a...

8. Working in MedSurg with ONLY RNs...

   CocoBug20 replied to newgradnurse2018's topic in General Nursing

   I'm curious now seeing all of the different terms used in both countries- can an American trained nurse move to Canada and get a job or would she have to re-train like in some other

9. I hate being a nurse and i'm about to graduate

   CocoBug20 replied to Newtons's topic in General Students

   I don't know if this'll help you at all, but in terms of awkwardness and low confidence just remember that nobody remembers things that you do. You might feel like you've completely made a fool out of...

10. Advice? Sexual Harassment Related

    CocoBug20 replied to Emhotovec's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I don't know how the job market is in your area, but maybe you should look for a new job if you don't want to do the messy thing and confront people. It sounds like more than one person responsible...

11. Talk to someone for free??

    CocoBug20 replied to Losa's topic in General Students

    Hi- I know the lonely feeling when no one responds to your posts so I thought I'd pop in. I haven't even begun nursing school myself yet but I'd be glad to I guess offer emotional support sometimes or...

12. Ramadan & Field Day

    CocoBug20 replied to SavyNurse's topic in School

    Hey- just an answer from someone who fasted as a kid all the time- make sure the parents know the kids are fasting. Sometimes kids can be stubborn enough to do it even when their parents don't want...
