    rn4ever? replied to RNmom08's topic in General Nursing

    An example of the saying "No good deed goes unpunished".....Because you've become very accommodating to them and you have bent backwards for them, they now expect this from you all the time. You can...

    rn4ever? replied to Kitty Hawk's topic in General Nursing

  4. How many times do you try to start an IV before calling in reinforcements?

    rn4ever? replied to belgarion's topic in General Nursing

    I try twice then call for help. But when I was a patient, I realized that each one should only try once.....when I was a patient, three RNs tried thrice and then finally the Anesthesiologist!...

  5. Concerned for new grad in ICU supervisor role

    rn4ever? replied to AOx1's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe your friend has lots of potential, and maybe she’s got what it takes to be a super nurse. However, the “clinical eye” is developed through experience. She might really do well in that...

    rn4ever? replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

  8. Day/Night with young children at home

    rn4ever? replied to jesshopper12's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I wouldn't do it-----unless you have a reliable child-care provider always. But I think you made up your mind on this and have accepted the position-----so I just hope it works and you...

    rn4ever? replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

  10. Nurse's: Find your own replacement when ill

    rn4ever? replied to Leelee2's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    No it's not. I applied to be an RN not a staffing coordinator. So it's not my job to find my replacement. If I'm sick, I will call out-----as long as you don't do it habitually, you can show a...

  11. Is it right or wrong to take this nursing spot?

    rn4ever? replied to esunada's topic in General Nursing

    Be straightforward with her. Then, if offered, take the spot. Wonder what your friend would do if she was in the same dilemma. Take this opportunity.....or someone else

    rn4ever? replied to chenoaspirit's topic in General Nursing

    According to your story, it's hard for you to say no and that you feel bad saying no.....But just think of it this way, everytime you say no to them, you say yes to more money for your old age, more...

  13. People think you are rich because you are a nurse

    rn4ever? replied to chenoaspirit's topic in General Nursing

    People will treat you the way you allow them to treat you. Did you bother telling them you're not rich? Don't you portray an image that you're rich and pretend that financially it's okay for you to...

  16. Nurses not speaking english at work

    rn4ever? replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately, I don't see that coming in the very near future. The capitalists of America cater to those who speak very little English, or don't speak English at all. When you call up your credit...

    rn4ever? replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing
