    Scrubs for the Blesses in size

    Multicollinearity replied to laverty's topic in General Nursing

    I don't understand what you mean by "blessed in size." Is this the name of a particular

    What do you call a PA?

    Multicollinearity replied to iHeartNICU's topic in General Nursing

    I have to admit that I am bothered by adressing a PA or NP, "Mr" or "Ms." The last time I called anyone (except elderly folks) by Mr or Ms was when I was a child in school. It makes me feel small...

    What do you call a PA?

    Multicollinearity replied to iHeartNICU's topic in General Nursing

    I think you need to ask the PA how s/he would wish to be addressed. I would imagine that most would go by first names, but I'd check first just to be

    Co-worker hitting up the Dr.s for meds during shift?

    Multicollinearity replied to babiesX2's topic in General Nursing

    Years ago when I worked in an ER, one of the docs gave me an Rx for antibiotics. I had worked with him for quite a while and we were just quite comfortable with each other. I don't think it should be...

    Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    Multicollinearity replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You are not a criminal based upon your ancestors actions. You know that, too. My ancestors came thru Ellis Island. But even if they didn't - it wouldn't matter. What matters is the time we are in...

    Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    Multicollinearity replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Some of my fellow liberals basically argue that we ought to have no borders. Think about it. That is what they are arguing. I find that

    Multicollinearity replied to Lfransis's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Actually, as I think about it, I'm sure that there are certain treatment techniques that academics would be loathe to put in print even though they know sometimes it must be done. This is where...

    Multicollinearity replied to Lfransis's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    How we make children feel safe comes to mind. We don't always answer their questions truthfully. We answer what they can handle as age appropriate. I think our approach would be similar with those in...

    Meth is destroying communities

    Multicollinearity replied to WVUturtle514's topic in General Nursing

    I need to understand better myself. I don't understand. I have a cousin who had a loving wife and three little girls. He had a good career, and a lovely home. After starting meth he lost everything....

    Racism in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    I remember seeing an American news reporter on location in London, asking people on the street questions. I don't remember the context, but the white American reporter asked a British black man...

    Sleep Deprivation Anyone??

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

    It sounds like she has accumulated a sleep deficit during the week, and her body is making up for it by sleeping so long. It's normal actually. If I only get 5 hours per night for a few days, then I...

    Racism in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    I am learning from this thread. I am sure many more are too. I think part of the problem is that generally speaking we are too afraid to talk about these issues. We don't learn anything about the...

    Multicollinearity replied to AZmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    If you take courses for your BSN while waiting to be placed - be careful that you aren't going to exceed 64 credits to be transfered from the community college to your BSN program. Most of the RN-BSN...

    What would make you happy?...employee satisfaction

    Multicollinearity replied to natsfanrn's topic in General Nursing

    Anything that gives me more autonomy and independence. And that doesn't cost money. Go figure. I've read studies that say one of the top stressors on employees is lack of

    Racism in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    All I know, is that as a white lady I cannot imagine telling someone of another color what they can do or can't do with words that have been used in hate against them. I know that I am a bit...

    Betty Boop is her 'chat name' here on the board, and I'm pretty sure that I-140 is a type of work visa for immigration

    What Causes Idiopathic Bruising?

    Multicollinearity replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

    I was surprised when my nurse practitioner started asking me questions and I realized she was screening me for domestic violence. I know what causes my bruising. It's a moderate dose of Flovent and...

    Racism in the workplace

    Multicollinearity replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    It is only disempowering the word if the minority person uses the word themself. Of course only an African American can use the n***** word, and nobody else of another color. As a white person, I'm...

    Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    Multicollinearity replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Hey, I'm all for voting out the oligarchy we have going on. I'm certainly not a fan of NAFTA and CAFTA. At the same time, I want the border closed to illegal immigration. I want legal, safe, and...

    I am aware of this, which is why I quoted figures for "white, not hispanic" from the census figures. You will see this if you click on the links I provided to census data. I too believe that everyone...
