    MarkMyWords posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    Nowadays everyone knows what a placebo means. For purpose of honesty and truth... Here's some new names for it. Decepterol, Prevaricaine, Foolerol, Fakerin, Phonystatin, Wishfuline, Badvair,...

  2. Coronavirus Second Wave?

    MarkMyWords replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

  3. Nursing Is No Longer Worth It

    MarkMyWords replied to AnonymousSuper's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I would say this to everyone who does not like their job or just bored. And I have been there but not as a nurse. TRY NOT to show it. And don't take it out on others. I can usually tell when a worker...

  5. Nurse Assault: My Story

    MarkMyWords replied to Shawna Kratochwill's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Could OP file a civil suit? I don't know the law. My guess is that the police were easier because it is a hospital. If it was on the street or a business...maybe not. His excuse of taking drugs is BS...

  8. Charmin Commercials THE WORST!

    MarkMyWords replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Most commercials try to manipulate consumers in some way, using fear and other emotions because it works. Nothing wrong with private label generic brands of paper. I see commercials for masks every...

  9. Question about uniforms

    MarkMyWords posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I know this is a minor issue but I am curious when nurses change into their uniforms? At the clinic or hospital, or at home? I assume you don't wear uniforms or scrubs at

  10. BSN to DNP-FNP Writing Sample -need help editing

    MarkMyWords replied to kcheck5's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    IMO--as a former professor--It seems audacious to expect strangers on a forum to read this lengthy report for your degree. Try asking another student or shorten it to a few

  11. The masks are making life hell!

    MarkMyWords replied to heather7781's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Sorry to hear this. They should sympathize but instead you get indifference and apathy. In my experience recently with moderate hearing loss, most people are not interested or care at all. People...

  12. Ethical Issues

    MarkMyWords replied to RN2020scm's topic in General Nursing

    Whether it is considered ethical will depend on management and the code of conduct written and implied for nurses or medical staff. HR would know. If they think it shows an unflattering unsavory image...

  13. Ethical Issues

    MarkMyWords replied to RN2020scm's topic in General Nursing

  16. Famous person as patient?

    MarkMyWords posted a topic in General Nursing

    Have you ever had a famous person as a patient in hospital or clinic? You need not say the reason for their visit for sake of confidentiality, if they are still living. Did they expect or receive...

  17. Nurses Furious As Dentist to Lead Nursing Research Institute

    MarkMyWords replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    This looks political. It's not about who is best qualified. For a long time librarians were upset that a nonlibrarian academic was head of Library of Congress which is the biggest job in the field....

  18. First date joke

    MarkMyWords posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    So a young man is just about to kiss a girl on the first date. And she says, wait, we're supposed to be six feet apart! And he says, oh, I thought it was six inches

    MarkMyWords replied to rnski's topic in Nursing Humor

  24. VP Mike Pence visiting Mayo Clinic - Not Wearing a Mask

    MarkMyWords replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It is possible that he he took off his mask for the camera. Know any government leaders who wear masks on television or internet? because it looks unprofessional and undignified. I think the general...

  25. Would like therapy, need advice

    MarkMyWords replied to nic k's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I didn't say that they don't qualify. I said some psychologists do not have the rigorous training--obviously, not all. Some of them are not so good, and it may be hard to find a therapist that is...
