    religion in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to elrondaragorn's topic in General Nursing

    I'd have to disagree. I was a true believer the first 22 or so years of my life. I still remember how I used to scoff at non-believers and the thoughts that ran through my mind. Just as the sun rises...

    religion in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to elrondaragorn's topic in General Nursing

    If you will look at the context in which this comment was made, you will see that this statement was not a general statement towards everyone of the Christian religion. It was a directed statement...

    religion in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to elrondaragorn's topic in General Nursing

    Roy, I was just pointing out the difference between hating something and fighting against it v. not containing a belief. I do think that is an important distinction. As far as a name...people have...

    religion in the workplace

    Also, even different denominations within Christianity are markedly different regarding public prayer. For example, an Episcopalian might feel quite differently about this compared to a Pentecostal or...

    Had my first doctor scream at me today

    Multicollinearity replied to TigerGalLE's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    When I was 18 years old, I worked in an ER. We had this terrible doc who screamed often. One day he started in on me. So he was shouting at me. I looked at him and said, "I'm not participating in...

    religion in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to elrondaragorn's topic in General Nursing

    I recall seeing a study done on healthcare workers offering to pray with patients and patients' perceptions. Some patients got worried and thought they must be sicker than they thought. I do recall...

    religion in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to elrondaragorn's topic in General Nursing

    I'd like to learn how to do this sort of thing, even though I don't believe in any god. All I care about is making the patient feel better, just like the above. That means working from the patient's...

    Do I let her know about my brother??

    Multicollinearity replied to zumalong's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, the most common psychological response to a shocking incident is to freeze. The more shocking - the more likely you are to not say anything at the time. It's only later that we can think...

    Do I let her know about my brother??

    Multicollinearity replied to zumalong's topic in General Nursing

    That's exactly what I was thinking. If she had made some comment about caring for a sickle cell patient and they may as well die...maybe she'll help them die...instant termination as it should be....

    Do I let her know about my brother??

    Multicollinearity replied to zumalong's topic in General Nursing

    The conversation you described was more than one uttered phrase that was a mistake. It was a drawn out exchange. In front of a patient (you). I would talk to this woman next time. I would mention...

    Sometimes the sales reps do both. They have the necessary technical knowledge and are the only one from the company in a large geographic area. But about this particular

    Is doing a little private duty on the side "okay"?

    Multicollinearity replied to Trying2BLPN's topic in General Nursing

    Do you have malpractice or E&O insurance? If so - is private duty work covered? I would think it would be easier to drift out of your scope if you are out there on your own, also. How are they...

    Do additional college degrees help when looking for a nursing job?

    Multicollinearity replied to krazykev's topic in General Nursing

    Are you sure NO ONE in your ADN program cares about learning anything? I doubt that is a fair assessment. Some, sure. NO ONE, I doubt

    Why?????

    Multicollinearity replied to Hillgirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This makes me think of "death by decimal point." Meaning, one math error of a decimal point in a critical medication can kill someone. "Death by decimal point" kept me awake at night right before I...

    Opinion about autism

    Multicollinearity replied to pat8585's topic in General Nursing

    Steph, I'm trying to understand your point here. Can you clarify? Are you saying that parenting is a cause of autism in your opinion? This is what I am interpreting from your post. If not, why do you...

    Multicollinearity replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Glina, get in where? For the community colleges, generally you only need a C in pre-req classes to get on the waitlist. Although in Tucson you must have an average of a B for BIO 201 and 202 to get on...

    You're going to Community College?

    Multicollinearity replied to Multicollinearity's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had a relative at Easter lunch today saying to me, "But if you go to a community college to become a nurse you will be a lower nurse, right? You won't be able to give certain important medications...

    Would you give away a semester's worth of notes???

    Multicollinearity replied to CiCigirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree. Angie's sharing to me was different. Those students were currently in the class and following along. Also, Angie was transcribing notes as a learning mechanism. She wasn't jotting down "x...
