1. Decapitated baby

   CommunityRNBSN replied to SHH's topic in General Specialties

   Yes-- SOMETHING horrible happened here (a baby definitely died) but honestly we know very little right now. Wanting to reserve judgement until we know what happened is not crazy, or evil, or...

2. Decapitated baby

   CommunityRNBSN replied to SHH's topic in General Specialties

   Yes, the thread is a dumpster fire. I hope a thorough investigation is done (NOT by the hospital!) to figure out what the hell happened, and who was involved. This is the doctor. Her...

3. Sick of other NPs abusing patients - psych practice

   CommunityRNBSN replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

   You sound really defensive. You came on here for advice, and you got good advice. I'm sorry you're in a tough spot, but lashing out about how anonymous online nurses-- all of whom tried to help...

4. Patients Filming You

   CommunityRNBSN replied to Anonymous666's topic in General Nursing

   I mean, of course each province varies, as do each of our

5. Miss being bedside

   CommunityRNBSN replied to rn_guy89's topic in Health, Stress Management

   Some people love outpatient, others not. Although I did love outpatient and I still don't think I'd enjoy what you describe. I worked in primary care, and I was able to form relationships with some of...

6. LVN Semaglutide Business

   CommunityRNBSN replied to Gabbyfrances's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   Okay, well, you asked, and we all told you, "Hell no." I'm glad you decided not to pursue

7. LVN Semaglutide Business

   CommunityRNBSN replied to Gabbyfrances's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   Yes. In many states a CNM is the equivalent of an NP— just a different title. Which is 100%, entirely, completely irrelevant because you're talking about an LPN/LVN giving people questionable shots...

8. Change in Triage Policy

   CommunityRNBSN replied to skylark's topic in Emergency

   Wow— sounds incredibly unsafe. If the person is in active labor or anaphylaxis, how is anyone going to

9. Suspected Diversion

   CommunityRNBSN replied to nurse_elle1956's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Thank you for finding that!— definitely adds some context to this

10. Help, unable to comply with IPN

    CommunityRNBSN replied to Ovrblown's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I know you said it's impossible, but basically you have two choices: Do it, or find another career. And please don't write it off as "impossible" until you and your wife have really sat down and...

11. Alarm Fatigue Allegedly Leads to Woman's Death: Lawsuit Filed

    CommunityRNBSN replied to allnurses's topic in Nursing News

    I see this even in outpatient! We don't have audible alarms. What we have are "critical" pop-up screens. Often they are about drug-interactions that are vanishingly rare, or just not relevant to the...

12. Advocacy

    CommunityRNBSN replied to CommunityRNBSN's topic in Advanced Practice

    I was horrified by it too. I think what happens is, in many online schools, students are responsible for setting up their own clinicals. So they go through the phone book and call anyone with a...

13. Was this unethical of me?

    CommunityRNBSN replied to guest1200295's topic in General Nursing

    Honestly, it is hard to differentiate idle curiosity from "need to know" sometimes. I was working as a school nurse, and I saw a note in a child's chart about a tragedy that their family experienced....

14. Confused new nurse seeking advice ... please help?

    CommunityRNBSN replied to jss1985's topic in General Nursing

    Honestly, it is hard to shift from a PCT role to an RN role with your "old crew.” I'm not saying people can never do it, but it is hard! The people who were your friends and coworkers (other PCTs)...

15. My professor isn't the easiest to deal with.

    CommunityRNBSN replied to ForJanesSake ASN RN's topic in General Students

    I feel like if the professor gives you the answer key, it is totally reasonable to expect students to go over it themselves and figure out what they did wrong. There may be a small number of questions...
