  1. nurse & dr affair, what should I do?

    PANurseRN1 replied to sandee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    LOL! I nominate this as the "best post ever" for this type of thread.

  2. do nurses eat their young

    PANurseRN1 replied to teenynurse's topic in General Nursing

    If you make mistakes, then you should accept feedback on what needs to be corrected instead of pointing fingers at what other people do. Getting negative feedback is not the same as being "eaten,"...

  3. experienced RN's please chime in!

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

    You completely lost any sympathy from me (and I'm a fellow migraine sufferer) with this. Why did you even post that you wanted feedback from experienced nurses? You clearly wanted to just rant against...

  4. generation gap among nurses

    PANurseRN1 replied to angelcharm's topic in General Nursing

    fascinating. we're barracudas when it's convenient (like when someone wants to rant on experienced nurses), but we're timid little mice when newer nurses wants to brag on themselves. make up your...

    No, it

  6. nurse & dr affair, what should I do?

    PANurseRN1 replied to sandee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Easy...MYOB! Really, what business is it of yours what two consenting adults are/are not doing (and what conclusive proof do you have that this is even going on?)? As long as pt. care is not being...

  7. will this kick me out of nursing school?!

    PANurseRN1 replied to jennystudent00's topic in Nursing Career

    Which is why you shouldn't be dispensing legal advice, since you are not an

  8. What is the major reason nurses leave?

    PANurseRN1 replied to saguaro13's topic in General Nursing

    Shame on nurses who perpetuate the hurtful stereotype that experienced nurses eat their

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

    PANurseRN1 replied to artistnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Your coping mechanisms are smoking, taking meds, drinking, and yet you're telling others that if only they felt "called" they wouldn't be quite so stressed? I hope you were aiming for irony big time...

  10. time for my mea cupa

    PANurseRN1 replied to sheilagh's topic in General Nursing

    (((((sheilagh)))))

  11. nursing caps

    PANurseRN1 replied to biker nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I was thinking the same thing. The misuse of abx. is what got us the superbugs, not caps. I sure would like to see the research to back what that prof. said about caps. Sounds more like a theory than...

  12. Illegal Alien- frustrated!

    PANurseRN1 replied to SaderNurse05's topic in General Nursing

    Don't let it get you down. I take posts from students with less than half a grain of salt when it comes to telling me what kind of nurse I should/should not be. I would be willing to bet that most of...

  13. Illegal Alien- frustrated!

    PANurseRN1 replied to SaderNurse05's topic in General Nursing

    Which is why many of us begged, even pleaded for a forum for experienced nurses to be able to vent and be safe from students and new grads hacking at us. There is no need for sermonizing, period. And...

  14. Illegal Alien- frustrated!

    PANurseRN1 replied to SaderNurse05's topic in General Nursing

    Vent at your own risk. The students and new nurses out there just don't get that those of us who have been in the trenches (you know, actually being nurses) for years occasionally need to blow off...

  15. Letting CNA pass your meds, bad idea?

    PANurseRN1 replied to walla189's topic in General Nursing

    That's just it...they have nothing to lose; they have no accountability. They won't shoulder the blame...it's the supervising nurse who gets

  16. Letting CNA pass your meds, bad idea?

    PANurseRN1 replied to walla189's topic in General Nursing

    Because the caregiver in the home isn't doing it under a nurse's license. As far as students, they usually have their instructors/preceptors with them and by the time they're doing it independently...

  17. will this kick me out of nursing school?!

    PANurseRN1 replied to jennystudent00's topic in Nursing Career

    Unless you are an attorney, you should not be dispensing legal

  18. will this kick me out of nursing school?!

    PANurseRN1 replied to jennystudent00's topic in Nursing Career

    You should follow the advice of an attorney. No one here can legally adivse you, nor should

    PANurseRN1 replied to biker nurse's topic in General Nursing

    You can be an idiot and have a boatload of initials behind your name. Your practice is what makes you a professional (or

    PANurseRN1 replied to healer27's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't assume the worst. The job ad may have closed because it was only paid to run through a certain date, or the hosp. may have cancelled it because they have enough prospective applicants. If you...

  21. Nursing & website is depressing!!!

    PANurseRN1 replied to SeanyRN's topic in General Nursing

    and if you run yourself into the ground constantly "giving," you won't be able to take care of many more patients. this "martyr mary" attitude drives me nuts. it does all of us a disservice, because...

    PANurseRN1 replied to Dashing's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, what of it? It would give someone considering nursing a good idea of some of the less wonderful aspects of the

    That's how I read it,

  25. single moms and working late

    PANurseRN1 replied to firetopaz's topic in Nursing Career

    Sorry, but you lost my sympathy as soon as you started in on the single young nurse with no obligations. You chose to be a nurse. You chose to have a child. You are responsible for making it work. If...
