It’s so much fun watching some people getting their panties in a wad when others have different views then their own.

I didn’t either what I did was multiply 0.08 x 2.34 and comes out to 0.187% of unvaccinated people who had Covid before who get reinfected.

Yes it is a stretch but I also points out choices that we make that do not protect ourselves against known issues that can harm us and others.

What if that person on the bus drops over and codes but you are so out of shape you can not even do CPR? These is a far fetched thing that can happen but it could harm that person by you not being able to do what you were trained for.

Yes numbers do matter, what do you think percentages are it’s just numbers expressed if a different format. It’s not that I do not believe in percentages it’s just they do not tell the whole story. By the number you gave the unvaccinated rated is 0.1...

If this is the case every healthcare worker needs to do everything to have the best health possible. Which includes never driving over the speed limit, never eating junk food, exercising 3-5 times a week, not under or over weight etc.

How many people do not agree with a person carrying a hand gun who states they do “just in case I needed it” are saying get the vaccine because “ just in case” you might get reinfected? Or worse then come back as Sleepy Joe.

I am also one who will not tell someone to get or not get any vaccine without talking with their provider and doing research. Here are just a couple of things to think about when it comes to these vaccines. -The conflicting information from the...

No difference then if using a secure strap. No difference then positioning. Chart how it’s placed along with what it’s like at the end of the case.

I place it under the knee with some slack between the 2 body parts. Have never had an issue with the foley pulling tight.

I was just giving him somethings to think about so he can make a more informed decision.

Just a few thinks you need to consider. Since I do not know your age some of what I am writing will not apply but by your user name it appears you are in your mid 20’s. -What would your options be if you can no longer work on a rig due to injury o...

Words can also make you not see the truth when it is happening before your eyes. Can you now believe the propaganda machine (MSM) which denied the truth for the last 4 years.

I was not the one who started the politicization of the thread just point out the posters hypocritical thought.

New York, California, Michigan to name just a few.

You need to take a deep look at your self because the most facist states are the ones being run by Democrats.

Federal government is 10% paid at time and half rate.

There is a new job just listed today in USAJOBS and it list a salary range of $55,756 to $72,487 per year. You might trying looking in OPM.gov for housing and COLA information.

Check USAJOBS.gov. That is where government jobs will be listed. Because of the SOFA agreement there are time limits and other rules for employment you will not find in the states. As far as pay you would be a GS-11 and can find pay scale at https:/...

But we are also our worse enemy because to often when a HC company makes cuts and ask the nurses to do more we do because “it’s for the patient”. I try telling other nurses if we are doing non nursing duties it is not for the patient since we are no...

You need to talk with healthcare recruiters from all 3 services to see which one is the best fit for you. Each service has pros and cons, different promotion rates, advance school requirements/attendance rates etc. Ask about what really happens not j...

Do you have any Federal Government hospitals near you? If so I would look into one of them. I am not surprised about the pay; hospitals are like insurance company’s which screw over people with loyalty.

The only time I was ever asked about my GPA or a copy of my transcript is for the Military. The Federal government usually ask for a transcript but not always. Most DON’s know that a GPA doesn’t make a nurse.

I agree pre op nurses have a strong roll to play. OR nurses are the last check if it slips by. my question is how did the surgeon not know until you got to surgery. He should have seen you in the pre op holding area to do a site verification an...

I do not know what excuse the director from the OP will say when there is a wrong site surgery. I like to verify my patient to include their understanding of the surgery and what body part is being operated on before they receive their pre-op m...
