    Explaining Absence During Colleague's Vacation

    I, too, was heavily leaning toward Axis 2 territory (even if the DSM 5 doesn't really do the whole "axis" separation

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    Debating, especially these current hot topics, can often involve a lot of charged emotions. As I've said in other posts, so many of us are in need of not just physical healing, but mental and...

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    I had to have the titer drawn for the last job I had. I was surprised to find that my measles result returned non-immune, which is what prompted me to research it. I happily took a booster MMR and...

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    I don't sense hostility at all. I actually enjoy the discussion, as I agree there is always room to discuss potential ethical concerns when it comes to these issues. There are a lot of practice issues...

    Anxiety over making mistakes?

    Thank you for sharing this. I saved it to go over in more detail later. It absolutely makes sense. Personally, I noticed a significant change in the sharpness of my memory, my ability to learn, and...

    So, It's Come To This...

    LOL. Odd. I've actually been ruminating over adding a line to my resume that states: "Fully vaccinated, including COVID." I'd have to update my Anthrax and Smallpox to list those, though. Wonder if...
  7. Indeed. Drives me nuts, but it is what it is. I was able to do part of my clinical rotation time in a specialty podiatry practice and learned a great deal there. What I learned there also stepped up...

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    You're ignoring that the practice likely already had these rules in place, regarding all childhood scheduled vaccinations, so the child wouldn't be going to that practice to start with. They would be...
  9. Maybe with the vast salaries, they're paying Admins, they can get them to tend those empty beds.

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    Your quote, in bold, caused me to absolutely bust out laughing. Yes, sit down for a "good long while" to educate them. Within that pre-determined 10-15 minute time slot for the entire visit where you...

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    What you're discussing is the inpatient environment. Not the outpatient environment that is being referenced here. In the inpatient setting, the patient doesn't have much choice as the provider that...

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    EMTALA covers emergency treatment of emergency conditions. The rules regarding the provider-patient relationship are a bit different in the outpatient versus inpatient setting, or the incarcerated...

    FDA to grant Pfizer full approval next week

    Same. Anthrax vaccine was a bit more painful than Tetorifice, but I didn't have any other issues with it. Typhoid was no big deal at all. Small Pox vaccination requires a lot of follow-up care...

    FDA to grant Pfizer full approval next week

    Yep. Anthrax vaccine is still required for deployment. So is Small Pox, which actually has a pretty significant adverse reaction profile compared to most vaccines out there. Has to be repeated every...

    Dismissal From Nursing Program - Is all hope lost?

    I imagine they're going to ask why you were dismissed. Nursing, and nursing academia, are not large circles. Those at the new program may even know some at the previous program, so they may have some...

    Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    So. . . you're suggesting the hotel from The Shining, right?

    Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    I imagine that, just like many other complex human emotions, that's going to vary depending on the individual. I certainly can say I don't hate those who are making this choice. I'm frustrated and...

    Rant About Covid Antivaxxers

    My personal favorite is when people keep jumping up and down and pointing to the fact that you can get breakthrough infections as if this was, somehow, not expected. As if every vaccination ever...
  19. That's without even creeping into the catastrophic territory that is bills associated with visual or dental care. Especially for those without good insurance and who need glasses/contacts or who...
  20. I'm glad you were able to make that happen. My experiences overseas came at the cost of wearing the country's uniform and serving during wartime. What I've seen of allied countries are beautiful and I...
  21. I'm not sure who everyone was that got all those overseas vacations, second homes, expensive cars, and boats were. My lower-middle-class working family had a small, reasonably priced family home in a...

    Sneaky Administration

    Worked on a floor once where the educator would go in an empty room during shift and pull the code button to "test our response" and run unannounced mock codes. On a post-partum floor. Didn't give...

    Arthritis and Bedside Nursing?

    This. I had to give up acute in-patient care and I'm in my thirties because of traumatic arthritis and a joint replacement. Hospitals often aren't willing to make accommodations for these conditions,...

    Management Progression Assistance

    You're assuming that those in the C-suite, which is heavily focused on MBAs, care more about actual healthcare leadership than they do about business-focused leadership. The Nursing Admin track, from...

    Management Progression Assistance

    They likely would also prefer to see the higher-level degrees focused on Nursing Administration rather than Education. Those are actually focused on management-specific and management-leadership...
