    squeakykitty replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think there is anything else you could have done. Does she work at your workplace? You'd think that someone would be more compliant after having episodes in the

  2. I just don't know how to do this....

    squeakykitty replied to locolorenzo22's topic in General Nursing

    squeakykitty replied to PiPhi2004's topic in General Nursing

    I have heard of it before on these forums. "Entitled" people with ridiculous complaints, and managers who are big on "customer service". Luckily, where I live Press-Ganey hasn't infested the hospital...

  9. How much waste do you see?

    squeakykitty replied to PiPhi2004's topic in General Nursing

    squeakykitty replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I just found this thread. This is the best advice I've seen, I can't say it better. Your health is much more important than feeding into the dysfunction and drama. I do hope you feel better....

  17. When good vent threads go bad.....

    squeakykitty posted a topic in General Nursing

    2 days ago, a thread that promised to get interesting went south and got locked, and other recent threads could end up that way if they go south. Within the last 6 months, some others nearly ended up...

    squeakykitty replied to icyounurse's topic in General Nursing

  25. When good vent threads go bad.....

    squeakykitty replied to squeakykitty's topic in General Nursing

    Some of them I've noticed are older nurses who haven't worked on the floor for years and have missed out on the changes. That's why I posted the thread that I
