    Texas governor to residents: "The safest place for you is at your home" due Covid-19 spike

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    1) You'd be surprised how many patients who would be better off in a step-down or even med-surg unit get admitted to the ICU for observation purposes. 2) I joined the union before the Corona thing....

    Texas governor to residents: "The safest place for you is at your home" due Covid-19 spike

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Nothing is "fully proven". But dexamethasone has already been shown to be effective for critically ill COVID patients so steroids (thus far) are the way to go:...

    And that's basically what they've been doing with the Corona, because it's "novel" and they have just used whatever they can since there's been no prior research (for obvious reasons) on what is and...

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Because they said corticosteroids are the 1st class of drugs that have been shown to reduce COVID mortality. Really, unless you can't breathe and need to be on a vent, or your blood pressure's so low...

    Statement by the Seattle Firefighters re: CHOP

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to Emergent's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    "CHOP" and other radical leftist anti-cop initiatives are why the Democrats are going to implode. Democrats' supposed advantage with women voters in the polls is going to swiftly evaporate once...

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Nope. They need to be better at admitting people to ICUs. Just because 97% of TMC's ICU beds are occupied doesn't mean that 97% are on vents. I bet many of these people could be given PO...

    Massive Shortage of ICU Trained Nurses During COVID-19 Pandemic: The Need for Cross Training

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to simba and mufasa's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I used to work in ICU. In fact, I trained in medical ICU throughout my RN Residency program! I don't recall ICU being hard, per se, just incredibly busy. I used to think just how much work I did every...

    I voted straight ticket Democrat in 2018 so I didn't vote for Governor Abbott. But I'll vote for him in 2022. He has proven himself to be our last line of defense against tyranny. I am beyond grateful...

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to NewRN'16's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Let's see if I can explain this yet another way... Suppose, for argument's sake, President Trump had done the whole New Zealand thing, and shut down the entire country very early on. (Would two-faced...

    Covid wedding... am I the bad guy?

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to zoidberg's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Uhm.... the only person he should really care about showing up if he wants to get married would be his fiancé (or fiancée). I'd be annoyed, too. You're in the right

    You have already proven yourself a lethal threat by definition when you fire a projectile that can reasonably maim or kill a police officer. Firing a weapon or a TASER at an officer is grounds to...
