  1. Elective Primary C/S

    PANurseRN1 replied to Gem97's topic in Ob/Gyn

    God forbid you should look like you just had a baby.

  2. Shocked At Nurses Actions Tonight

    PANurseRN1 replied to PMFB-RN's topic in General Nursing

    Fabulous!

  3. Questions for breastfeeding nurses...

    PANurseRN1 replied to landonsles's topic in General Nursing

    As long as they, in turn, support the rest of the staff in getting their breaks,

  4. transitioning from home health nursing back to hospital

    PANurseRN1 replied to ktrn03's topic in General Nursing

    Haven't worked in that particular position, but I did go from home care to ED. It can be done. Good

  5. Shocked At Nurses Actions Tonight

    PANurseRN1 replied to PMFB-RN's topic in General Nursing

    FYI, not all JW nurses refuse to hang blood. It's an individual conscience

  6. CONTINUED IN WHAT IS THE MAJOR REASON Why are they all leaving?

    PANurseRN1 replied to artistnurse's topic in General Nursing

    With all due respect, you are not a nurse, so you really don't have the knowledge and skills to advise someone who is a nurse how she should better organize

  7. Sitters, give 'em a break!

    PANurseRN1 replied to anonymurse's topic in General Nursing

    You are correct. In my state, once those restraints come off you need a new order to put them back on...there's no such thing as "prn" restraints. So I would be furious to find out a sitter was taking...

  8. Sitters, give 'em a break!

    PANurseRN1 replied to anonymurse's topic in General Nursing

    If you took restraints off my pt. without asking me first, I would make sure your work day ended right then and there. You are way out of bounds if you do that. I'm surprised no one has called you on...

  9. Sitters, give 'em a break!

    PANurseRN1 replied to anonymurse's topic in General Nursing

    Amen,Tweety! I just love when people who aren't nurses come here to tell us how to do our job.

  10. Emergency Nursing Intervention!

  11. Narcan?

    PANurseRN1 replied to Antikigirl's topic in General Nursing

    The only times I ever gave Narcan were for true resp. depression or for heroin ODs. This sounds like it was unnecessary if the pt's resp. status was not

  12. The War with the Floors

    PANurseRN1 replied to zima60's topic in Emergency

    And this is what drives ED nurses crazy. We're either getting yelled at for bringing the pt. too soon or taking too long to bring the pt. I mean, we're sorry that you have to take another pt., but we...

  13. Heart Attack Grill (20/20 ABC show)

    PANurseRN1 replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Good point, P_RN. I've been disturbed by some of the "nurse" avatars, but they don't violate TOS,

    PANurseRN1 replied to cindib's topic in PACU

    These are not relevant to

  15. Wisconsin Nurse being charged with criminal neglect

    PANurseRN1 replied to psalm_55's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think experienced nurses have become inured to the seriousness of med errors. I think we have just come to realize over the years that even the best nurse makes a mistake from time to time,...

  16. Wisconsin Nurse being charged with criminal neglect

    PANurseRN1 replied to psalm_55's topic in General Nursing

    If you're no longer a student, then you need to update your user profile. Yes, she willfully breached the safety systems. It was not done out of malice, so far as anyone can see. She should be...

  17. Wisconsin Nurse being charged with criminal neglect

    PANurseRN1 replied to psalm_55's topic in General Nursing

    As a nursing student, you are really not in a position to judge someone who is a licensed nurse, especially someone with years of experience. You do not know what it is like to work as an RN. It is...

  18. First Impression of Nursing School

    PANurseRN1 replied to portiz86's topic in General Students

    Why the snarky comment about the younger (high school) people there? There are plenty of excellent nurses who went to nursing school straight from high school. There are many second career RNs out...

  19. CONTINUED IN WHAT IS THE MAJOR REASON Why are they all leaving?

    PANurseRN1 replied to artistnurse's topic in General Nursing

    It's patronizing, pedantic posts like this that make me want to whack my head against a wall for a few minutes. ETA: Ah, nursing student. That explains

  20. What's special about male nurses?

    PANurseRN1 replied to GBS_Fan's topic in General Nursing

    What makes male nurses special? Nothing. What makes nurses special? Now that's a whole different

  22. living with a chronic condition

    PANurseRN1 replied to nessa77's topic in First Year After Licensure

    FMLA would not apply until the OP has worked for the emplyer for one year and at least 1,250 hours. FMLA does not have to be taken in a large block of time. It can be taken from several hours to a...

  23. living with a chronic condition

    PANurseRN1 replied to nessa77's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Unless you live with migraines, you have no idea how offensive the "just a headache" comment

  24. It's that time again! Working Christmas?

    PANurseRN1 replied to scrmblr's topic in General Nursing

    Shame on that nurse manager for caving to such an infantile tactic. She's now reinforced that if you want something, all you have to do is pitch a big fit and you'll get it. I hope this woman's...

  25. Nurses Who Are Drug Addicts

    PANurseRN1 replied to jill48's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    What are you seeing that makes you suspect she's diverting? If you have strong suspicions you shouldn't need to be asking for signs. You had better have all of your ducks in a row before you even...
