  1. Is the nursing environment hostile?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to MRaza's topic in Male Nursing Students

    It's different everywhere, some places are very toxic work environments and others are fantastic. You might get along with 99% of everyone on the ward except your boss. It's really no different than...

  2. How Does This End?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to MeganMN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    They will wear a mask (incorrectly) ,go into the store and pay with the grungy keypad/card scanner and think they are safe! They don't social distance, wash their hands frequently, or not touch...

  3. Transgender nurses?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to munkyfusic's topic in General Nursing

    The most common definition of trend is something that is increasing in frequency(as in statistics). Of course trend can also mean a fad as you pointed out. So yeah, I can see that. Perhaps a poor...

  4. Jobs With DUI

    HandsOffMySteth replied to emilymorgan's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well if the BON did not take your license that is a good sign. Another good thing is the amount of time elapsed and the fact that you went through treatment. If you get an interview it will probably...

  5. Transgender nurses?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to munkyfusic's topic in General Nursing

  7. How Does This End?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to MeganMN's topic in Disaster Preparation

  8. How Does This End?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to MeganMN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Even if masks are not 100% they are better than nothing. I would be remiss if I was asymptomatic and killed an elderly person because I chose not to wear one. It is obvious we cannot stay in...

  9. "I think I made a mistake" ... 30 y/o Dies after Attending COVID-19 Party

    HandsOffMySteth replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    @herring_RN Of course, I too believe that we should wear masks. The reason I posted those stories is to show that Dr. Fouci has changed his advice from time to time. There are biased news sources all...

  10. "I think I made a mistake" ... 30 y/o Dies after Attending COVID-19 Party

    HandsOffMySteth replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Is there ANY evidence that these stories are not true? I think you are just avoiding the facts to deflect because it does not meet your tiny view of reality. Why? because Dr. Fouci is perfect and can...

    HandsOffMySteth replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_McCain_lobbyist_controversy I think they had to redact due to liability, it is true

  16. Is applying to 2 jobs at the same hospital ok?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to EDNURSE20's topic in General Nursing

    I can only imagine they would be upset if the hospital was a toxic work place to begin with. It never hurts to increase your odds. Good

  17. Is anyone else holy crap concerned?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to ladycody's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The important thing is that all viable research continues until there is a resolution. There were many prior studies by the Chinese that showed promise but many of those were lacking a control group...

  18. Hospital requiring personal cell phones for patient care

    HandsOffMySteth replied to krekear's topic in General Nursing

    Besides being a HIPAA issue, they should then pay for your phone and service if they choose that course of action.

  22. Now this....the crazy just keeps getting crazier

    HandsOffMySteth replied to ladycody's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Did you even read the PDF? "On March 29, 2020, Vice President Pence sent a letter to hospital administrators across the country requesting daily data reports on testing, capacity and utilization, and...

  23. Now this....the crazy just keeps getting crazier

    HandsOffMySteth replied to ladycody's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    How do you know the CDC will be deprived of the data? I think the reason for the change is what is important. Most likely CDC does not have the resources that HHS has. The PDF states that it is to...

  24. Coronavirus Second Wave?

    HandsOffMySteth replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    1.) That first post was a month ago when we knew much less than we do now ,and was speculative in nature. 2.) Your petty insults are indicative of a shallow mind. 3.) Those "alleged clinicians" are...
