  1. "Caring" what does it mean to you?

    PANurseRN1 replied to soozeeq246's topic in General Nursing

    I dislike that caring gets equated with some sort of simpering, Johnson and Johnson commercial type feeling. I agree with Timothy (for a change ), "Do unto others..." God knows we've had enough of...

  2. The 'Image' of Nursing

    PANurseRN1 replied to GardenDove's topic in General Nursing

    it should aggravate you. people who call themselves nurses but have no license are imposters. how many times have those of us who have been around the block had to correct inacurate info. that a well...

    PANurseRN1 replied to CRNI-ICU20's topic in General Nursing

  5. Maybe it's just me?

    PANurseRN1 replied to lannisz's topic in General Nursing

    Learn ow to say "no" when they call you to come in extra. Better yet, invest the few extra $$ for caller ID and just don't take the call. You are under no obligation to work extra. You are a nurse,...

  6. "Too unstable for transport"..........WHAT?!?!?

    PANurseRN1 replied to TazziRN's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I would never argue with a pilot over whether or not the weather conditions restricted flying. That's their area of expertise, not

    PANurseRN1 replied to PMercier's topic in Patient Safety Issues

  8. MD's professional handwriting skills

    PANurseRN1 replied to hppynurse2's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, Roy. Boys aren't expected to have good writing skills, therefore, they're given a pass when their writing is illegibile. If writing skills were gender based, how could you explain the...

  10. MD's professional handwriting skills

    PANurseRN1 replied to hppynurse2's topic in General Nursing

    Heck, our unit sec. ignores the phone. If there's a nurse at the desk charting she will let the phone ring until the nurse

  11. Contacted Oprah Show About Nursing Issues

    PANurseRN1 replied to jollyjenny's topic in General Nursing

    Agreed. Besides, Oprah only spotlights causes that make Oprah look good, not the cause. I really don't want her to be the center of attention when it comes to addressing nursing issues. I believe I...

  12. LPN Hard time finding work

    PANurseRN1 replied to PACNWNURSING's topic in Nursing Career

    Twelve years out of the loop, so to speak, may be going against you. That and the fact that many EDs no longer hire LPNs. Is there a refresher course you can take? That might show a potential employer...

  13. may give up nursing due to bullying

  14. may give up nursing due to bullying

    PANurseRN1 replied to billiejorn's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. If after two years of experience the OP still cannot pronounce or spell medications appropriately, it's no wonder her co-workers doubt she has the competence to administer

  15. Contacted Oprah Show About Nursing Issues

    PANurseRN1 replied to jollyjenny's topic in General Nursing

    Here we go again. Another sideways bash at older nurses. Who do you think is going to be there orienting and precepting you newbies? :angryfire Not every "older" nurse is technologically

  16. Help re Jehovah's Witness and death

    PANurseRN1 replied to nickismith72's topic in General Nursing

    That's just your MIL's personal choice; organs, hollow or not, are a conscience matter. And it is not true about the body needing to be intact at burial. Whatever the individual chooses is

  17. Communicating with children

    PANurseRN1 replied to nurselala33's topic in General Nursing

    I don't mean to sound unkind, but this isn't the first time you've posted with questions regarding your daughters' nursing school experiences. Really, they should be asking questions themselves,...
