  1. Should there be a 'White Nurses Association'?

    squeakykitty replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    No flames here. This is an excellent post. The idea of a white nurses association does seem somewhat disturbing. To me, race doesn't matter, and it should never matter. Character does

  2. my drug-seeking nurse patient

    squeakykitty replied to chenoaspirit's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe that's why they manipulate, because they can play on the concerns. There has been a few times in my life when I didn't act concerned for various reasons, and I think it saved me from a lot of...

  3. my drug-seeking nurse patient

    squeakykitty replied to chenoaspirit's topic in General Nursing

    Like anyone would tell him. That would just make him smarter. (Perhaps someone could tell him about this "rare seizure disorder" that causes people to do lots of pushups really, really fast for 15...

  4. Funniest Complaint on Press Ganey Scores

    squeakykitty replied to nursebrandie28's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure how you filled those cards out, but mine would be educational and I would do all I could to point out that a pts. life and health were much more important than "customer service". I...

  5. Funniest Complaint on Press Ganey Scores

    squeakykitty replied to nursebrandie28's topic in General Nursing

    If I ever got one, I would fill it out. (No swearing, of course.) I would fill it out in such a way that it would really get their attention, and I would comment on any section that thanks me for...

  6. Anyone can get into Nursing.

    squeakykitty replied to indiawhitaker's topic in General Nursing

    I forgot to add when I posted here yesterday that sometimes the abusive guy will try false accusations. Falsely accusing the girl of cheating on

  7. Anyone can get into Nursing.

    squeakykitty replied to indiawhitaker's topic in General Nursing

    time to jump in, because i have seen and read alot about this. one of my friends dumped an abusive jerk who didn't care that he hurt her feelings. he also coerced her into sex when she didn't want to....

    squeakykitty replied to zimsaint's topic in General Nursing

    Someone needed to 'sic' the state on these people, and I'm glad you did. And the state BON needs to get an

  10. "fan out and go" + alchohol

    squeakykitty replied to Pepper The Cat's topic in General Nursing

    I think I'd end up on team B, since there is a bridge I'd have to cross on the way in and it's not up to seismic standards. I live in earthquake country, so if the quake was that bad, the bridge...

  11. My bad attitude

    squeakykitty replied to jessiern's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is definitely a good idea. I don't think they'll be able to come up with a specific thing to back what they said

  12. You know you are in nursing school when ctxt

    squeakykitty replied to tnstudentnurse's topic in General Students

    Or you can watch a dressing change on a big bad bedsore with plenty of yellow exudate just before lunch, and order the stir-fried veggie dish when lunchtime comes. When you go to eat it you think to...

  13. Things that gross me out....

    squeakykitty replied to 2shihtzus's topic in General Nursing

    I truly must not have a gag reflex. I read this one right after I finished lunch. One time I was talking to my nursing instructor about maggot therapy for wounds and she started turning green. I...

    I don't know how she even made it through nursing school with that attitude. She is a real

  15. Productive Discussions on the Internet

    squeakykitty replied to Tait's topic in General Nursing

    I've heard that some computer programs in hospitals do this when someone tries to post here. I told my mom once that I could keep her out of any computer account I have by using the word "minute" as...

    squeakykitty replied to hollyberry678's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    :up: I wonder what the guy said to that? I would have loved to seen the look on his

  18. What is your take on multiple family members in room when they have roommate?

    squeakykitty replied to hollyberry678's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think if that happened to me things would not be pretty. I would tell them a thing or two. And if I ever caught my roomates family member helping themself to my lunch

  19. "fan out and go" + alchohol

    squeakykitty replied to Pepper The Cat's topic in General Nursing

    I think Indyskies post was tongue in cheek humor and I don't think she meant it seriously. I just hope no hospital managers sees it, or they might get

    squeakykitty replied to Pepper The Cat's topic in General Nursing

  22. Don't You Just Want to Scream?!?

    squeakykitty replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Any staffing shortage couldn't possibly be so desperate that the facility needs to keep her. Safety obviously isn't a priority with her, so she needs to go and lose her license, before someone is...

  24. substandard(infuriating) reservation health care

    squeakykitty replied to vetnrse's topic in General Nursing

  25. Reprimanded for NOT giving IV Push Medicine

    squeakykitty replied to Spritenurse1210's topic in General Nursing
