  1. Are oral contraceptives healthcare?

    Jolie replied to cargalrn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I apologize for this snarky remark. It does nothing to further the debate. But it does sum up my frustration at the emphasis of an elective health care service that is already available at a cost...

  2. Are oral contraceptives healthcare?

    Jolie replied to cargalrn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Contraceptives "trump" almost all other aspects of healthcare (as mandated in Obamacare) because they are to receive first dollar, 100% coverage in all plans nationwide, meaning that the subscriber...

  3. Are oral contraceptives healthcare?

    Jolie replied to cargalrn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Unfortunately, statistics do not bear this out. The Guttmacher Institute Website indicates that in 1973, the number of abortions per 1000 women ages 15-44 was 16.3. In 2008, despite more varieties...

  4. Are oral contraceptives healthcare?

    Jolie replied to cargalrn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    How has the human race survived to this point without universal coverage of prescription contraceptives? And why should first dollar payment for this service trump coverage for other services that...

  5. 4 psych tasks for coping w/stress of sick newborn?

    Jolie replied to The Bell Jar's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I believe you are on the right track with grief. What are the parents of a sick baby grieving? Additionally, what are the normal psychological adjustments necessary for new

  6. confused with this question, dunno which answer is right

    Jolie replied to mc_gutierrez18's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Kiwi82, I believe you are confusing nursing interventions with the nursing process as a whole. Interventions are one part of the overall process. Depending upon your nursing education, the terms may...

  7. confused with this question, dunno which answer is right

    Jolie replied to mc_gutierrez18's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Of course you document, but documentation is not a nursing intervention. It is record keeping. Nursing interventions are the actions taken to render care, education, guidance, etc. to the...

  8. confused with this question, dunno which answer is right

    Jolie replied to mc_gutierrez18's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Documentation is not a nursing

  9. How Do I tell my current job that I need time off for 1 month to work as a camp nurse

    Jolie replied to careo180's topic in Nursing Career

    Not trying to "pile on" here, but as a seasoned supervisor, I would like to offer some information that a relatively inexperienced nurse probably doesn't know: Most employers have HR policies and...

  10. Overnight field trip with diabetic student

    Jolie replied to 100kids's topic in School

    I've not gone on overnights, but many of my co-workers have. If the parents are able and willing to provide you with the necessary information including physician's orders, and you are able to reach...

  11. OB/L&D nurses, some input, please...

    Jolie replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Absolutely right to seek evaluation. And, IMO, you probably were experiencing uterine contractions, regardless of whether or not they showed up on the monitor. As an APN, I am sure you are well aware...

  12. is this considered acute care? pls help!!!

    Jolie replied to MyMystudentRN's topic in School

    I strongly encourage you to apply anyway. Employers can not legally refuse to accept an application from anyone, whether or not they meet the sated qualifications for a position. When a hiring...

  13. Is 'scope of practice' not taught in school?

    Jolie replied to kids's topic in General Nursing

    There seems to be so much lacking regarding basic professional issues. In my program, we were required to take a "leadership" course our final semester. It included both classroom and clinical...

  14. Should I have to do this?

    Jolie replied to AddisonLawrence03's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Does your stated job description include providing transportation, escorting the gentleman and maintaining his safety during activities outside the home? If so, then yes, it is your job. I am not an...

  15. Madame, your ignorance is astounding

    Jolie replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in General Nursing

    I love the way you think. I'd buy you a beer if you actually use that line the next time you have a conversation with this

  16. Informed consent-who what when where in texas

    Jolie replied to x4livin's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Non emergent, patient incapable of giving informed consent, no identified proxy. I agree that the blood can wait. I have a few questions, though. Please be gentle with me, in 26 years as a nurse, I...

  17. Which job to take? Both of them?

    Jolie replied to cayenne06's topic in General Nursing

    I am a big proponent of accepting the job which interests you most. Starting out as a new grad is a stressful experience. Starting out possibly 2 jobs, even more so. Finding a position in which you...

  18. Incident report help

    Jolie replied to rdsxfnrn's topic in School

    Did she teach creative writing in a former life? I'm not sure how you are supposed to paint vivid pictures of incidents that you did not personally witness. I assume that most students and staff...

  19. Incident report help

    Jolie replied to rdsxfnrn's topic in School

    I don't understand what is wrong with filling out an incident report with "just the facts". We have a very simple form used by anyone to describe any incident regarding a student, staff member or...

  20. Calling all peds/ER nurses RE: Tylenol dosage

    Jolie replied to 6spdftwtm's topic in Pediatric

    Fever in a young infant is always cause for concern because young infants' immune systems are very immature and can't be trusted to function the same way that an older child's or adult's would. This...

  21. Was I at fault regarding the job transfer?

    Jolie replied to leogirl8's topic in General Nursing

    I think you had a genuine misunderstanding. I don't think you deliberately misled her, nor did she intend to mislead you. However, since she is in the position of authority, it was her...

  22. School nurse practitioner

    Jolie replied to danceluver's topic in School

    The ones I know personally are PNPs. I don't know if the job description requires it,

  23. Med Admin

    Jolie replied to mmmiller's topic in School

    Our state has a prescribed course for medication administration in schools by non-licensed personnel. The nurses within the district teach it in accordance with the state curriculum and we are...

  24. School nurse practitioner

    Jolie replied to danceluver's topic in School

    We have a district in our area that has medical clinics in some elementary, middle and high schools. They are staffed by nurse practitioners who perform physicals, provide preventive care, manage...
