  1. Textbook of Nursing-1902!!!!

    buddiage replied to zumalong's topic in General Nursing

    "To the doctor, the first duty is that of obedience--absolute fidelity to his orders, even if the necessity of the prescribed measures is not apparent to you. " Call me ignorant, but don't you think...

  2. HI...my dream

    buddiage replied to KMP77's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I was a SAHM too- I finally thought that I could reach new goals in life for me and my family, and going to school is the best thing I have done for myself. Check out nursing schools in your area....

  3. Need nurses opinions. Is this right?? Nursing Dx

    buddiage replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    Yes- nursing school instructors have different opinions, so whose do you listen too? Technically, we don't use medical dx. I think the nursing dx is sometimes annoying, it's kinda like saying...

  4. Has anyone gone to school with a new baby?

    buddiage replied to alliestar's topic in General Nursing

    By the time your pre-reqs are done, your baby won't be a baby anymore. I go to school with two girls that gave birth within the first two weeks of the first semester of nursing school. They took...

    buddiage replied to MelodyRNurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  7. Do experienced nurses really eat their young?

    buddiage replied to whit717's topic in General Nursing

    "I doubt the CNO there would be very happy to learn that your preceptor acted this way; it is not a way to encourage people to come to work there!! " That's my thoughts exactly. Start looking...

  8. need help--husband died at home

    buddiage replied to pyseymo's topic in Cardiac

    Pyseymo- Your actions were nothing short of heroic. You gave your all in insurmountable circumstances. It must be difficult to try to stay steady for yourself and your children. Sometimes your...

  9. GPA and nursing

    buddiage replied to NoeIssa's topic in General Nursing

    I was a 4.0 until nursing school. I get C's, B's, and A's now. You will learn to "chill" and accept it. If you don't need friends or diversions from the norm, a 4.0 is possible. But concentrate on...

  10. Second thoughts? Medicine calling me!

    buddiage replied to FuturoEnfermera's topic in General Nursing

    Finish what you started. THEN, if you want to apply for med school, and decide you hate it, you have a great and reliable career to fall back on. If I didn't have a daughter, I would consider going...

  11. diabetes

    buddiage replied to lfinny's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Increased hunger- cells say "look, we aren't getting any sugar, so feed us!" They don't know that there already is a ton of sugar in the blood. They need the insulin to put the sugar inside, and if...

  12. starting ADN clinicals soon...COLD FEET?

    buddiage replied to JenniferRDH's topic in General Nursing

    Don't worry- I know you want to do really well. I was scared, too. They teach you how to avoid errors, and it is up to you to enforce them (the five rights). You will not be giving meds unless your...

  15. To move to MO, or not to move....

    buddiage replied to WIchica0732's topic in General Nursing

    I moved here from Washington state, and I love it here. I live in Lincoln County, doing all of my business in St. Peters and Wentzville. It's a different culture than what I am used to. A lot of...

  16. I'm not "WIPING BUTTS"

    buddiage replied to KayceeLeeRN's topic in General Nursing

    Does anybody like wiping butts? No. So is it okay for a patient to lie there in it while workers debate wether or not it is thier job? It's not like pt's love being incontinent and being unable to...

    buddiage replied to New2ER's topic in General Nursing

    I just got out of a psychiatric facility clinical rotation for three weeks (I am a nursing student). Let me tell you, that is a job that I could never do, and I told my husband that I had the upmost...

  18. any comment?

    buddiage replied to unwanted RN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm trying to be tactful here, but I'm honest. Your husband needs to participate as a parent. Unless there is something you aren't saying, there is NO reason for him to not participate in the rearing...

  19. Nurses children and vaccinations, how do you feel?

    buddiage replied to Mistify's topic in General Nursing

    Gosh, you know, life is hazardous to your health. I am a nursing student, and I am taking a risk either way on the issue. I do believe the need for boosters aren't as much as for the initial...

  20. straight caths and students

    buddiage replied to adrienurse's topic in General Nursing

    I am in my 2nd semester and was just tested over it. With supervision, why not? We are instructed to do it, sterile technique, and are not allowed to do anything like that without our instructor...

    buddiage replied to 33-weeker's topic in Ob/Gyn

    For personal experience- An episiotomy didn't help me one bit I believe. I had a 3rd degree tear, and (sorry for my bluntness) a huge lady parts afterwards (pushed for nearly 4 hours, so maybe that...

  23. Sanford Brown College of St. Peters, MO LPN to ADN RN

    buddiage replied to lapriajanae1's topic in General Nursing

    I applaud you for passing quickly. I have found myself in Missouri, from Washington, unexpectedly. In my opinion, I would go to a school who is accredited- instances like mine are a perfect example....
