  1. LPN's Are they really being phased out?

    Although I haven't worked in an area that employs LPN/LVN's in a long time, I have to say that for someone to speak for all RN's and to say that we feel that LPN/LVN's are "useless" from our "point of...
  2. I just got a DUI...

    I have lived around alcoholics and fully agree about the selfish behavior and only thinking of "I". It irks me to no end! I also noticed a couple of posts commenting about how they had relatives that...
  3. I just got a DUI...

    I'd like to add that the OP doesn't need to be judged or shamed any further than what has already happened. Telling her that she could have gotten into an accident with a car with a baby in it isn't...
  4. I can't speak to your comments about your friend in medical school because I'm not familiar with the requirements, but even if that is the case........ Does that make it ok to lighten requirements...
  5. Although I would consider this to be excellent advice to the OP from an actual CRNA, I can't help but feel the need to remind all of you who are critical of the original inquiry that this is coming...
  6. Dear Abbey, about a nurse

    In addition, this whole thread is just another example of why visitors shoudn't be allowed into the PACU in the first place. The fact that there were two visitors, visiting adult patients recovering...
  7. Dear Abbey, about a nurse

    I agree. The breakup was most definitely not her fault. However, giving out opinions and unproven theories disguised as fact, when the employee was dressed in scrubs and employed in the PACU, put the...
  8. Dear Abbey, about a nurse

    I respectfully disagree. She most certainly did plenty wrong. You don't have to watch everything you say just because someone will report you. You must watch everything you say in front of patients...
  9. Dear Abbey, about a nurse

    I totally disagree. She most certainly made inappropriate comments and did plenty wrong. As much as we've all encountered patients and family members who think that they know more than we do about...
  10. Dear Abbey, about a nurse

    I agree that whether or not he was cheating is not the issue either. I also agree that the wife was sneaky and inappropriate in her methods of probing her husband while he was coming out of...
  11. San Antonio vs. Houston

    That's a matter of opinion and you will get a lot of varied answers here as Texas cities often rival one another. My answer as a traveler and a TX resident: San Antonio has cheaper housing, but the...
  12. Dear Abbey, about a nurse

    But is it really a fact that he WAS cheating? Simply because he made those statements while coming out of anesthesia? I think that a point is getting missed here and that is that the theory about...
  13. doing stuff differently

  14. The patient's family members

    Your solution is not a bad idea at all so please don't think that I'm cutting it down. I do not, however, believe that nurses should be resorting to such tactics as dating diapers just to prove to a...
  15. Family: The Monitor Monsters

    I have to disagree with at least some of this. There most definitely is such a thing as telling too much info to visitors and I must admit that I've been accused of doing it by my co-workers on...
