  2. If you are drunk, don't drive!

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to chuck1234's topic in General Nursing

    I never said that is someone has a DUI they must be drunk at work. You assumed that. Separate the DUI issue from clinical ability. The MINDSET is still the same. IF you're holding your OWN self...

  3. If you are drunk, don't drive!

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to chuck1234's topic in General Nursing

    Y'all...this is about a mindset, a personal moral code, personal integrity...and the lack thereof is something that's running rampant in America. Too many people are not holding their OWN selves...

  4. ER wait-times a customer service, clinical concern

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Not trying to hijack the thread, but I'm hoping this ties right into it.... What happens if there are simply NO staff members available? I'm talking if all available staff members are treating...

  6. i need it urgent

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to bonanza's topic in Emergency

    I think you're asking a very broad question that could encompass SO many things. . .I think it's unrealistic to expect other posters to hand over their entire knowledge of ER policies and protocols....

  7. Need advice, feeling really bummed :(

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to LIZ07's topic in General Nursing

    For whatever it's worth... My school only allows 1 repeat, BUT that includes a "W." For instance, I took A&P II in 1997, but withdrew after the first lecture. That left me with only one shot to...

  8. Familiar with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to CathyRN06's topic in General Nursing

    I just did a paper for Microbiology about Candida albicans. There are resources that explain how the systemic overgrowth of this yeast can cause some of the same symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome...

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to Brian_SRNA's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  10. So I am scared out of my mind.

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to bluegrassboy's topic in Nursing Career

    Go ahead and get the general education courses out of the way before you register for clinicals (assuming no wait list)....the English, Math, Psych, etc. Then, go for the Science classes and try to...

  11. Illegal Alien- frustrated!

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to SaderNurse05's topic in General Nursing

    I don't like that the system is abused in so many ways. Are these agencies so overworked that they can't verify the validity of documents presented? Why are they allowed to "overlook" citizenship? I...

  12. Child In a Cloud of Smoke

    LuvMyGamecocks posted a topic in General Nursing

    Okay, this has been weighing on my mind for a while now. My nephew (who has successfully recovered from Hirschsprung's Disease that I've posted about before) has been sick for the past month and a...

  13. Children, Husband/wife, JOb and Nursing school??!!!

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to RNsoon!'s topic in General Nursing

    What's working thus far for me.... Children..(I have a 3 and 5yo) If you have a choice between washing dishes or reading a second book before bed, go with the second book. If you focus the time you do...

  14. Ethical Issues in Nursing (HELP!!)

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to wunurse08's topic in General Nursing

    There are several forums on this site that should help point you in a direction to research. https://allnurses.com/forums/f100/ (Nursing Activism/Healthcare Politics)...

  16. Moms who want to feel absolutely NO pain

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to HappyNurse2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    As a mom that has experienced pitocin, I think that it should go hand in hand with some sort of pain relief (if nothing else, to take the edge off) unless specifically requested otherwise. I had an...

  17. Career Advice - Please Help!

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to struggling_student's topic in General Nursing

    I'm still a student myself, but I'm nearly 100% positive that you have to have the BSN (beyond just the RN) before you can apply for Post Graduate Studies. I do know this is the case at USC (the real...

  18. Experienced Nurses Only

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to RunningWithScissors's topic in General Nursing

    I, for one, am particularly grateful for the "human" side of the nursing profession that this forum presents and would hate to lose that until I have a

  19. Micro whining

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to DaughterofRuth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in Micro this semester and I'm HATING every minute of it. The material is explained to us in a way that makes it easy to understand, lucky for us. But, it's just the material. Hate it, hate it,...

  21. I want to write a killer essay on why I want to be a Nurse, my goals, etc...

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to RNsoon!'s topic in General Nursing

    It seems that, judging from your collective previous posts, that you may not have the solidity (word?) in your gut to "do" nursing. I have no doubts, am 100% positive that I'm choosing the right...

  23. Starvation: A good thing when concerning the Obese.

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to xt1's topic in General Nursing

    I have read that the up and down of crash dieting (which is what fasting would seem like to me....eat, don't eat, eat don't eat) is 75% MORE likely to cause heart disease because of the strain it puts...

  24. Falsely Accussed, Manager a Witch

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to Furoffire's topic in General Nursing

    LuvMyGamecocks replied to stillpressingon's topic in General Nursing

    They have the standard starting classes in NUR 101 in Fall and Spring which admits students based on their place on the waiting list. Only 80 students per semester start clinicals like this. Merit...
