  1. Don't give oxygen?

    LNDRN19 replied to LNDRN19's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    AWESOME answer. Thank you so much. The baby did respond to O2 intervention and was past the transitional

  2. Don't give oxygen?

    LNDRN19 replied to LNDRN19's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Oh, okay. I was wondering what it could be. The baby did perk up with O2

  3. Don't give oxygen?

    LNDRN19 replied to LNDRN19's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    The pt was a baby whose sats were dropping spontaneously and for no outwardly apparent reason.The doc was sitting in a chair, writing transport orders (the pt was going to the NICU) and just watching...

  4. Don't give oxygen?

    LNDRN19 replied to LNDRN19's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Have any of you ever seen a doc get mad at you for giving a pt oxygen after the pt's sats dropped to say,

  5. Spanish for L&D nurses

    LNDRN19 replied to livn4him11's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yeah, after I posted that, 77, I realized that I came across pretty mean--sorry. I ldo like all my patients--I like all varieties of people, regardless of the language they speak, their nationality,...

  6. Spanish for L&D nurses

    LNDRN19 replied to livn4him11's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I always have "as much fun as I can" learning another language. I speak fluent French because I took in school it for 6 years. I love speaking French. I learned "many new things about myself" speaking...

  7. Spanish for L&D nurses

    LNDRN19 replied to livn4him11's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Open-minded?

  8. Spanish for L&D nurses

    LNDRN19 replied to livn4him11's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I will not flame you. I don't like the fact that I, in order to function in my job and keep my license, am forced to learn their language. It's very rude for people to go to another country expecting...

  9. New Ortho Nurse

    LNDRN19 replied to BansheebabeRn's topic in General Nursing

    It will come with time. I promise. I've been a nurse for only 7 months and although I am long from having it down pat, my organization has greatly improved. Take it one day at a time. Don't get too...

  10. Spanish for L&D nurses

    LNDRN19 replied to livn4him11's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Although in another post I mentioned something that may seem contradictory to this, I am always trying to improve my Spanish and am also searching for a good Spanish/English book. I saw one laying...

  11. Am I Being Unreasonable? Please Give Me Your Opinion!

    LNDRN19 replied to Nurse!Nurse!Hello?'s topic in General Nursing

    No, you're not being unreasonable. It sounds like they are trying to hose

  12. Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    LNDRN19 replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    for those seeking legal status, the system does need revision--there's much work to

  13. Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    LNDRN19 replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Exactly--and I just have very strong opinions on this subject, so forgive me if I sound cruel. I have many friends of many races and nationalities and appreciate diversity. But this isn't about that....

  14. Ready to start writing up techs

    LNDRN19 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was wondering what you all think about something: many of the RNs and LPNs on my floor are fed up with our lazy, bad-attitude, rude techs. Many have complained to our manager, who is said to simply...

  15. Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    LNDRN19 replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And how much money will this investment consist of? I think we are over-investing as it is. How much more do I have to deny my children so that I can provide for the children of those who steal from...

  16. Ready to start writing up techs

    LNDRN19 replied to LNDRN19's topic in General Nursing

    Tazzi--who knows if it will ultimately make a difference. It's a gamble, and I'm weighing the options right now. We've had excellent workers leave our unit because of the techs, so it may be time to...

  17. Do young nurses ever have fun???

    LNDRN19 replied to chichimitchi's topic in General Nursing

    Chichi--lots of our twenty-something nurses "party" after work...so, to answer your question, yes, you'll have time. Just be CARFEUL!!!! Be smart about it. Don't get yourself in bad situaitons. I used...

  18. Do young nurses ever have fun???

    LNDRN19 replied to chichimitchi's topic in General Nursing

    Are you kidding, Tazzi? YOU'RE NOT OLD!!!!! 40's are so the new 30's! Rock-n-roll, girl!!!!!

  19. Ready to start writing up techs

    LNDRN19 replied to LNDRN19's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, I'm kinda expecting that. It's ridiculous to think that one has to resort to writing people up to get them to do what they originally agreed to do, isn't it? I'd rather not have to...hopefully...

  20. Mars requires nurses

    LNDRN19 replied to Barb101's topic in General Nursing

    Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!

  21. Mother/Baby Care does it really work?

    LNDRN19 replied to pscmason's topic in General Nursing

    I am a mother/baby nurse, and in the combined care concept works very well, but it sounds like you are up against a dangerous staffing situation! They can only expect one person to do so much! If we...

  22. Off Orientation!!

    LNDRN19 replied to nurse79's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I got off of orientation not too long ago. I have many days when I go home feeling upset at myself because I forgot to do something (nothing that harmed a pt.) or said something stupid to the docs....

  23. The cheerleading is NOT helpful

    LNDRN19 replied to waterfall99's topic in Ob/Gyn

    It sounds like that nurse was totally absorbed in her own world; like she didn't stop to think about the impact of her actions on others. What an annoying nurse. I might mention to her that she...

    LNDRN19 replied to 3rdgenRN2B's topic in General Nursing

  25. How many times can you fail???

    LNDRN19 replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    Don't freak yourself out about the NCLEX. I know it's nerve-wrecking, but you can succeed at it! When you sit for your test, remember to slow your breathing, and think through your questions. It is...
