  1. So upset got passed for charge

    I love my cat! replied to Emilysmom2, RN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry that you are going through it, but trust me, it's no bed of roses being a CN. I too think that this is a blessing is disguise. You can keep the hours that you have chosen and spend your...

  2. Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    I love my cat! replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    :vlin:Well, that's your opinion. Like I stated earlier, a 'C' is still a 'C'! If a student was out all night partying with Uncle Frank and gets 79% on the exam the next day OR of if a student was up...

  3. Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    I love my cat! replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    I never knew this! Could you please post the study/link where these points were taken from? I would love to show this to some of the Nursing instructors that bring their students through the Hospital...

  4. Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    I love my cat! replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    Ok. Am I reading this correctly? You are stating that students who have kids/husband/job/ingrown toenail/etc should be commended for their "C"? They are somehow excused for not knowing the material...

  5. so when is it wrong to stand for unfairness...

    I love my cat! replied to Movin'onUP's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm going to be judgmental. People walking in late (no matter how quiet they think they are) is disruptive. Just to give you a heads up...using your kid as an 'excuse' for being late is never going to...

  6. Would you get treated at the hospital where you work?

    I love my cat! replied to Goingthere's topic in General Nursing

    I would, but the weird thing is, I prefer getting all of my medical care through our 'rival' Hospital, UCLA. I just seem to have had better luck with the MDs there. Plus, the out-clinic that I use has...

  7. Have you seen Zyprexa, Risperdal, Remeron...make a difference?

    I love my cat! replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    Bring the quackery on. When I first started Nursing, I worked in a Nursing home. We would admit patient after patient and these people were completely out of control. Then the psychotropic regime was...

  8. Professor accusing me of abuse through email !!!

    I love my cat! replied to carlasbizz's topic in General Nursing

    Ugh, modern technology can be such a hinderance and so confusing at times. Like the above poster stated..stay calm! I know it is hard, but stick to the facts. Explain the situation is a concise...

  9. Laser Tattoo Removal

    I love my cat! replied to Scrubby's topic in General Nursing

    I don't have any tattoos, but many of the people I work with do. Two coworkers (that I am aware of) are going through the process of having some of their tattoos removed. One stated that it hurt, but...

  10. Tasting blood....Can this be true?

    I love my cat! replied to PopeJane3rd's topic in General Nursing

    Great response. I was wondering how cozy some people were getting w/ those bedpans. LOL! The only thing I could think of was this: The iron atoms in blood do give fresh blood a smell and can even...

  11. Mom suffocates child, revives w/ CPR, then suffocates again...

    I love my cat! replied to rehab nurse's topic in General Nursing

    This is so horrible and tragic. Then you have this one: Father Accused Of Eating Child's Eyes Out ...............and people think that that people who choose not to have children are nuts....

  12. i failed out of nursing school...now what

    I love my cat! replied to mashamontago's topic in General Nursing

    Be careful with those patients stating, "You're the bestest CNA and I only want you 'cause CNA Groucho does (this that and the other thing)". This is a very common stunt of very manipulative patients....

  13. constantly sick ever since I started working

    I love my cat! replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in General Nursing

    This crossed my mind as well. Cleansers, latex, food that you allergic too being cooked and giving off fumes, etc. I know a Nurse who had an anaphylactic reaction to latex. She thought she was sick...

  14. Threatened by Patient Family

    I love my cat! replied to Susan9608's topic in General Nursing

    Healthcare facilities need to stop catering to families, now! Hospitals are there for the patients. I understand that families are important for a patient, but really, enough is enough. Hospital...

  15. Help allnurses reach its Twitter goal

    I love my cat! replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Will do! I am following so many amazing and interesting people...always room for one

  16. 100 Best Twitter Feeds for Nurse

    I love my cat! replied to Spirit of Humor's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for posting the list! I'll follow a few and see how I like them. I usually drop the vast majority of people because I find their tweets so incredibly

  17. so "the state" is coming, and i dont know how to rectify what i did.

    I love my cat! replied to lorenwithano's topic in General Nursing

    I am really sorry that you are having to experience this. The fear and drama created over things that could be resolved easily and quietly, is honestly, one (of many) things I HATE about Nursing. I...

  18. How do you put a nurse like this in her place?

    I love my cat! replied to DoubleblessedRN's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, as irritating and annoying as these people can be, I wouldn't say a mean word to her. Just thank her for assisting you. Look how much work she is creating for herself and by doing this,...

  19. Negative Threads

    I love my cat! replied to Seagate's topic in General Nursing

    People vent when there are problems. I think being able to vent is very healthy and normal! Not talking about negative experiences and situations seems very deleterious and destructive to me....

  20. Of Kittens and Computers

    I love my cat! replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    What a nice ending to a story (that I was almost scared to finish...)! Poor little kitty. I just don't understand animal cruelty at all. I don't care what kind of animal it is......nothing deserves...

  21. Anyone have experience with Lap Band Surgery?

    I love my cat! replied to Keepstanding's topic in Health, Stress Management

    My Aunt had the lap-band procedure several months ago. She has been morbidly obese for 25+ years. (I've mentioned her in other threads). It was an outpatient procedure and she reported relatively...

  22. Not letting my kid go to school

    I love my cat! replied to RedhairedNurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm all for schools closing...just please, oh, please.....keep the kids HOME! These schools close and what are the kids doing? They are mingling in the community where anyone could have it....

  23. Lunch breaks and required phones

    I love my cat! replied to DeeAngel's topic in General Nursing

    The period generally must be at least 30 minutes. The employee must be completely relieved of his/her duties for the purpose of eating a regular meal. The employee must be allowed to leave his or...

  24. Swine flu raises fear of pandemic - Adults and Children

    I love my cat! replied to oramar's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Reminds me of the Southpark episode, CHICKENPOX: The boys get angry and seek revenge when they discover that their parents orchestrated a sleepover at Kenny's house so that they could all get...

  25. tired of the abuse

    I love my cat! replied to pedinurse05's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I would talk to a lawyer about this. Present the document that they make employees sign, explain how others are not getting their breaks/meals, (including yourself, until you got a MD...
