  1. Travellers treated better? opinions please

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to Cherry Soda's topic in General Nursing

    As a traveler for an RT company, I would say I don't think I'll be doing that as a nurse. EVERY single thing I did was scrutinized to find fault. They said things to me that conveyed thier contempt...

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to k123456's topic in General Nursing

    All, I want to directly quote everyone, but I don't want to turn this discussion into one of those quote-everything-and-get-spittin' mad-vent-o-rama-for-pay per-views;) oke-doke?:) I think I'll make...

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to k123456's topic in General Nursing

    Quote from Suzy I know you're really into the whole theory thing, but nursing theory is not science. Nursing theory is an attempt to separate what nursing students learn from what other allied...

  12. sales nurses

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to renerian's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds like a company that follows success like Cain's coffee. If you've worked with them before and especially if they were your supervisor at the other job,then you can just concentrate on closing....

  13. spooky spooky spooky

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to babynurselsa's topic in General Nursing

    I wanted to add that I have seen objects move and heard laughter out loud in the house where I used to live in Arizona. My brother saw a female in leg braces(think Polio) and an older woman talking...

  16. sales nurses

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to renerian's topic in General Nursing

    BTW................about the books. Go to the business section in any bookstore. There's a new book about selling every ten minutes. You will never read them all. Don't go out and buy one of those...

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to renerian's topic in General Nursing

    Renerian, I've done outside sales for everything from an embroidery company to a couple of coffee services. I've read books on the subject,but nothing will ever compare to the raw training of being...

  18. question about urine drug screening

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to melissa24's topic in General Nursing

    I got denied a job once because I was taking "fat burners". I showed the bottle,declared it on the form,talked to the doc,the nurse,and my prospective employer about it. After two weeks of phone tag...

  19. Nightshift Headaches

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to jschut's topic in General Nursing

    Julie, Have you considered that it might be Circadian in etiology? I used to work 7-7s as an RT about 12 years ago and if I had known about Melatonin,I would have certainly used it. There are 1mg...

  20. opening up nursing the profession to spanish speakers?

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to brown rice's topic in General Nursing

    By Rusty If I didn't know you beter,I would think you were taking what I said out of context to make an argument for speaking other that English. Would your license be at stake if you were...

  21. opening up nursing the profession to spanish speakers?

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to brown rice's topic in General Nursing

    Here's an idea, When you have a pt that doesn't speak English,how about one of those communication boards for aphasic pts? It's been ten years since I was on a floor,but we used to use them for...

  23. opening up nursing the profession to spanish speakers?

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to brown rice's topic in General Nursing

  24. Whistleblower Nurse Vindicated

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to fiestynurse's topic in General Nursing

    How long do you think that sort of thing takes to develop? Feeding tubes pretty much just "drip" don't they? Right through the peritoneum huh. Sounds kind of easy to figure out, but we shall see. Ok,...

  25. Whistleblower Nurse Vindicated

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to fiestynurse's topic in General Nursing

    By Kristi I haven't had any clinicals yet but I would imagine that the tube either went through a fistula and drained into the peritoneum or that it blocked the pyloric valve. I think it was to...
