  1. Why is BSN required for CRNA?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to MM1989's topic in General Nursing

  4. They want us to give drip meds on med/surg

    ArmyRntoMD replied to bindikwan's topic in Patient Safety Issues

  5. Aggressive Resident and Alcohol

    ArmyRntoMD replied to guest336699's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Lol 3 oz of ETOH will cause inhibition? It would barely cause inhibition in a non alcoholic patient, in the alcoholic patient it’s withholding a med he needs to function normally. Why would you hold...

  6. Is being an LPN REALLY that bad?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to peppapig123's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    If you want to work in a doctors office or nursing home you should go for it, but most hospitals I know have extremely limited LPN

  7. Please Help

    ArmyRntoMD replied to guest1136129's topic in General Nursing

    Why would she let herself be controlled? That is the big question I have here. You dont go into a career for someone else- it’s YOUR

  8. Do I have to join the Union?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to friendlylark's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Probably lack of interest. I along with most of my coworkers aren’t interested in unions. I make WELL above the average income for my area as well as have an amazing schedule. I don’t feel like...

  9. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    You contradict yourself. In one breath you say all RNs across America should make close to same wages, but on the other hand you say California’s high wages are offset by super high cost of living....

  10. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I’m not against unions, but often the unions are there to protect the unions. They start off good, but then they are concerned about their own survival. Just like a corporation or government....

  11. Nurse Accused of Taking Naked Photos of Nursing Home Patients

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Melissa Mills's topic in Nursing News

    Uhhh or maybe she’s sick and twisted? Why do you assume she’s

  12. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I’m saving my GI bill to pay for med school. And it’s not a financial decision. Imo it’s poor financially but I am not satisfied- I feel like I can achieve more. I’m really enjoying physics,...

  13. Nurse Accused of Taking Naked Photos of Nursing Home Patients

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Melissa Mills's topic in Nursing News

    Perfect usage of the death penalty. Makes you wish we still had public

  14. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    My state of Louisiana doesn’t have unions and I’m making out like a bandit. Name another field where I could make 66k annually and be enrolled in premed full time? I feel extremely

  15. Why is BSN required for CRNA?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to MM1989's topic in General Nursing

    I don’t think BSN is probably one of the most difficult degrees. Math, sciences, engineering, etc all seem far more difficult to me. It is definitely one of the most rewarding degrees though....

  16. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Dang right the pay is good. I’ve had offers for up to 4,000 a

  17. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    That’s a fine opinion but I don’t understand the people mad at “scabs”. Do they want the patients to be nurse

  19. Strike Nurse Practitioners?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Shookclays's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    So let me get this straight, because you want more money, you don’t want ANYONE to take care of your patients? Says a lot about your

  20. Strike nursing

    ArmyRntoMD replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    So if people don’t work while other nurses are striking- who takes care of the patients? The very reason we claim to come to

  21. Union-yes or no

    ArmyRntoMD replied to RNBSN08's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Not for me. I made over 6 figures in a non union state, and 66k while being a full time college student. I’m definitely not complaining. Nursing is a super nice field when it comes to work...

  22. Why are so many nurses against unions?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to Icunicenurse's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Because I’m not going to have someone tell me if I can or can’t

  23. Anyone ever been on strike?

    ArmyRntoMD replied to dankimal's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    No but working strike contracts is SUPER lucrative

  24. Oxygen therapy and humidified air

    ArmyRntoMD replied to jaykays's topic in Patient Medications

    It’s works on a physics principle called the Venturi effect. In order for it to work as mentioned by the previous poster you need AT LEAST that many L flowing, any extra is going to make extra

  25. I'm a nurse and I don't like people.

    ArmyRntoMD replied to addylpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    There’s too much estrogen on most floors for me. That’s one reason I went to critical care. Usually 50/50 and there have been shifts of nothing but 100%
