    9/11 20th Anniversary- Where Were You When Our Country was Attacked, the Twin Towers Fell and America was Changed Forever?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Hovering half-asleep over my desk in Algebra II class in high school. Found out in the next class, where we discussed the situation openly with the teacher, and some students were given the option to...

    HarleyvQuinn replied to grammieRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Trauma. Acute stress reactions. This same type of behavior was predictable and seen in pretty much all of us towards the end of our rotations during deployment, if not sooner in others. I keep saying,...

    HarleyvQuinn replied to grammieRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Condescending and lecturing don't work well. It tends to turn people off to what you're trying to educate them about. Better to try and meet them where they are, which requires learning more about...

    Harassment/Bullying

    HarleyvQuinn replied to Melissa Basney's topic in General Nursing

    I mostly use it to follow my favorite beach campground's fan page so I know what is going on there before I visit. Or, as you said, pet pics and family/close friend news. Every now and then I will...

    Do you think you are a "hero"?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Ohh. Thank you for clarifying. I appreciate your sharing this with me. I was worried I came off as a crazy person ranting there. I know we all have topics that get right to our hearts, of course. Even...

    Harassment/Bullying

    HarleyvQuinn replied to Melissa Basney's topic in General Nursing

    Great googly moogly. Block her. Lock down the privacy settings on your own facebook. They're better off being private anyway. Employers these days will look to see if you have one and peruse it prior...

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yeah, I ranted a little there. There are some sore nerves. Sorry about that.

    Do you think you are a "hero"?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I know, right? That's part and parcel of what we do. Now that it's widespread they want to announce "heroes," but look at how they treated those that went out of their way to help those impacted by...

    Do you think you are a "hero"?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Bingo. Although, I think it's all a dog and pony show for the sake of the public. In the back, they're still whipping the staff and yelling to work harder and not talk about conditions. It's only to...

    Do you think you are a "hero"?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The Admins and facilities are the ones banking off of it, not the actual healthcare workers. Unless you count complimentary pastries or random food donated from some companies, which happened...

    Our military is required to receive vaccinations with much harsher side effect profiles than civilians are exposed to, or they lose their livelihoods. There has not been a flu (since 1918), varicella,...

    Explaining Absence During Colleague's Vacation

    HarleyvQuinn replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Importantly, you managed to work through what was clearly causing you a great deal of anxiety and demonstrated resilience. You indeed were capable of handling everything in your co-managers absence...

    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Haha. We'd all be unemployed. My mind generated a Drill Instructor with a whistle, of course. I remember barely being able to get the lunch in at all due to poor staffing. Then the employer...

    Looking for Advice/Perspectives

    HarleyvQuinn replied to thegreennurse's topic in General Nursing

    You don't need critical care experience to be an FNP. Sure, your experience as an RN can and will help you with understanding the advanced material you're learning and handling the clinic. Depending...

    Medical Board Says, "Stop Issuing Bogus Mask Exemptions to Students"

    HarleyvQuinn replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Thought I would share this with everyone, as it pertains to schools and ongoing problems with the pandemic: Less than a week after Liberty University announced and enacted a temporary campus-wide...

    Mississippi's nurses are resigning to protect themselves from Covid-19 burnout

    HarleyvQuinn replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Please take care of yourself and remember that you're not alone. What you are going through is extremely hard and anyone would struggle with it. Believe me. I'm pulling for all of you and know the...

    Explaining Absence During Colleague's Vacation

    HarleyvQuinn replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Definitely hoping for safety and well-wishing. Even if there is a component of pathology involved, it doesn't take away from wishing someone well and hoping that things turn for the better in their...

    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This is entirely off-topic, but I have often wished that hospitals would provide a gym for us to work out in during breaks or before/after shift. I would be all over that. I think it's because we had...

    Why Do New Grads Lack Critical Thinking Skills?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I mean, that's what we're saying. Trial by fire is a terrible way to train healthcare professionals. For both the professional and the patient. While simulation is an excellent learning tool, it does...

    Healthy 44 year old BBC Radio personality dies from Covid vaccine complications

    HarleyvQuinn replied to GordonGekko's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It should also be noted that blood clots are associated with COVID infection, as well as the multitude of other sequelae that those who survive the initial disease have suffered. Which, just to note,...

    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    HarleyvQuinn replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Only one of the major hospital systems in the area has mandated it thus far. Ironically, the same hospital system that tests for nicotine prior to hiring and does not employ those who smoke/dip/vape....

    Why Do New Grads Lack Critical Thinking Skills?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Nurses who don't have enough experience themselves doing the precepting, and on top of that they're understaffed. There are many hospitals that do not have any form of preceptorship program, as well,...

    Why Do New Grads Lack Critical Thinking Skills?

    HarleyvQuinn replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    They did the same to NP and PA students. Residents continued their training programs. I'm not sure whether medical students did or not. My program ended up shuffling our scheduled clinical courses and...
