    buddiage replied to RNsoon!'s topic in General Nursing

    buddiage replied to jrec's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  3. Advice Wanted!!!! PLEASE!!!

    buddiage replied to LPNIowa's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    My advice: leave. There has to be too many other places to not get treated that way. And on your way out, explain why you are leaving. Why donate minutes or hours of your life to a lying idiot? You...

  4. What do patients say that irks you?

    buddiage replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You know, I felt it was so gross when I had to go there too, and I didn't take my new baby to "breath other people's tb." I had barriers to the cart, it just grossed me out that 50 kids had probably...

    buddiage replied to starryx2's topic in General Nursing

  9. Update on Gross Out Co-Worker

    buddiage replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

    Then all 3 of you guys offer to buy her 3 pants so she can wear undergarments. I would just come out and say it. If she is a nurse, then she should know that blood and urine are no-no's to touch for...

    buddiage replied to tigress_8207's topic in General Nursing

    I got C's in math, even retaking math classes. Had that problem since the 3rd grade. I didn't care about math or school. I vowed NEVER to go to college. Well, times change. I took math in college and...

  11. New grad just got fired

    buddiage replied to rn2day's topic in General Nursing

    Just remember, when one door closes, another one opens. Your orientation will enable you to have the experience to know what to expect for your next job. I know it must be difficult to not fret. This...

  12. Chemistry 2006/ 2007 Club***

    buddiage replied to dreamBIG's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Looking up nomenclature + chemistry in a yahoo search should do the trick. It should also be in your book. Perhaps adding "cheat sheet" might help your

  13. Catholic hospitals-yes or no?

    buddiage replied to texascowgirl's topic in Nursing Career

    Totally to save money, for sure. I doubt it has anything to deal with personal "feelings" on the issue. Hospitals will always try to save money and cut costs. Eventually, in the future, they will have...

  14. How to go about CRNA

    buddiage replied to TurismoDreamin's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    You did come across cranky. But, over half the communication was missed since nobody could hear or see you, so maybe you weren't. Not everyone has these message boards

  15. How to go about CRNA

    buddiage replied to TurismoDreamin's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I have high aspirations too. You sound like me- I'm a current nursing student, but I am trying to "plan" for the next 10 years of getting my master's. I have a love/hate relationship with school, but...

    buddiage replied to motomanRN's topic in General Nursing

    buddiage replied to alwaysnervous's topic in General Nursing

    Been there, started nursing school this year. Different areas have different amounts of competition. If your grades are on the low end, try doing some volunteer work, job shadowing, or CNA course. I...

    buddiage replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Okay, I'm back from cleaning up the kitchen. Hey, you know...here's the thing: How many times have the insurance companies opened their books to show how much it costs and what their profit is? The...

  20. Socialized Medicine sure is scary.....

    buddiage replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Ol' Mikey Moore has just made a film called "Sicko" that deals with this issue of healthcare in America. I don't like Moore at all, but I'd go to see that film for something to provoke thought and ask...
