  5. Which organ is in charge in human body?

    squeakykitty replied to cooliegirl's topic in Nursing Humor

    They do get to be in charge, don't they? And they are so full of it,

    squeakykitty replied to ham272's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    You have a vivid dream of your bedroom being at the nursing home where the DON's office is, you hear a resident yelling and you say I'll be there as soon as I get up. When you did wake up, you were...

  7. You know you are a CNA when....

    squeakykitty replied to ham272's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    You know you're a CNA when--- You look at the poop in the toilet so you can chart the size, and you then realize it's your own. You have fantasies about taping a dirty Depends to the car heater of...

  8. Can Aides Pass Meds?

    squeakykitty replied to PiperLPN's topic in General Nursing

    It would be a good idea to get on your states BON website and do the research. In CA, it's never in the CNA scope of practice to pass

  9. I want her fired!!!!

    squeakykitty replied to HisTreasure's topic in General Nursing

    I'm thinking that reading the various threads here about family members, customer service, and hospital=Hilton threads will probably generate some ideas on what to write. I saw a newspaper article...

  10. I want her fired!!!!

    squeakykitty replied to HisTreasure's topic in General Nursing

    I would truly love to see a whole lot of lawsuits from a whole lot of nurses. Then maybe people would get the idea. I have also thought about a letter to the editor, but I think to be really...

  11. I want her fired!!!!

    squeakykitty replied to HisTreasure's topic in General Nursing

    I wish that someone would sue Press-Ganey and the Studor group for a pts. bad outcome that was caused by this "customer service"

  12. I'm just so sick of all the DRAMA (long)

    squeakykitty replied to Spritenurse1210's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, document everything to make it easier for the DON to fire her. Everyone has insecurities, but she's dealing with hers in a selfish, toxic

  14. Things you wish you could say to your co-workers...

    squeakykitty replied to nurse4theplanet's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If you have time to eat your breakfast during the residents meal pass, you have time to help with two person transfers. (I would write this on a card and leave it on the plate while I dispose of CNA...

  15. A Day W/O A Nurse

    squeakykitty replied to soulofme's topic in General Nursing

    I just had a thought. If nurses can't walk out---- Why not just take back the bathroom breaks. Go ahead and use the restroom when you need to and don't hold it for hours. That would be a good...

  16. Cheating in nursing school?

    squeakykitty replied to believer4's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with this statement, since if a person cheats they won't have that piece of knowledge learned and they will be a dangerous nurse because of

  17. Same ol' family issues!!

    squeakykitty replied to ImASuckyCMA87's topic in General Nursing

    This sounds like very good advice on letting Social Security know what's going on. And keep on being the squeaky wheel with the Family Services. It's probably a good thing I'm not around that...

    squeakykitty replied to pagandeva2000's topic in General Nursing

    Pt. asked for nurse to hold his member while he was urinating. Pt. was told he could do it himself, and if he had trouble holding it, nurse could locate a pair of tweezers for him to

    squeakykitty replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I always look. I don't know

  21. Not Nursing Related-- need advice from the people I know won't let me down --- LONG!

    squeakykitty replied to chasingthedream's topic in General Nursing

    There is a lot of good advice here. The only thing I can say is don't apologize for the sentiments in the letter, and don't back down. If they want to be in your life, they don't have to like you,...

  22. going up nursing ladder

    squeakykitty replied to johnnyDoGood's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with this. The patients health and safety is a priority here. Besides, a CNA giving meds is outside the scope of practice unless they have been trained as a med aide, which is the...

  23. Will I get fired?

    squeakykitty replied to johnnyDoGood's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like pointing the finger to call attention away from ones own mistakes. (Never mind what I did---look at what she did!!) Passing on rumors when someone reports a violation of company policy...

  24. Things you'd LOVE to be able to tell patients, and get away with it.

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

    To the family members of an incontinent resident---This person really needs to have briefs, and if you can't provide them for some reason, then can you get this person some extra pants, so that they...
