  1. Communication PLEASSEEE!

    Jolie replied to SchoolNurseBSN's topic in School

    You had a pre-K kid present to your office alone? Holy crap. I'll never complain about my schools again. Oh wait, I don't think I ever have had a reason to complain :) Come to Nebraska. They...

  2. Personal Info in Cover Letter?

    Jolie replied to LoveMyBugs's topic in General Nursing

    I am astounded at the personal info people reveal in the hiring process. At times, I want to cover my ears and pretend I haven't heard it. It is improper for an interviewer to ask about your marital...

  3. Epi-Pen Auto Injector

    Jolie replied to mwboswell's topic in Emergency

    The Epi-pen is an IM injector. See the following: http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/archives/fdaDrugInfo.cfm?archiveid=7150 DESCRIPTION The EpiPen® and Epipen® Jr auto-injectors contain 2 mL...

  4. do I tell the other school's nurse?

    Jolie replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    I think the only way for you to do this would be to suggest that the mother to contact the nurse at the other school for additional information or resources for eliminating lice. I don't envy you this...

  5. do I tell the other school's nurse?

    Jolie replied to Sudsy's topic in School

    Nope. It is inappropriate to share confidential information with another school, especially since this is clearly not an emergency situation and there is absolutely no risk to the siblings or students...

  6. Children skin turgor assessment question

    Jolie replied to emilytsay1207's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    If you post your thoughts, we'll be happy to comment on

  7. Certification vs not and the role of the profesional organization

    Jolie replied to geocachingRN's topic in School

    I chose not to write a response right away because I have mixed feelings about your situation, and I wanted to refresh my memory of your previous post on this subject....

  8. Certification vs not and the role of the profesional organization

    Jolie replied to geocachingRN's topic in School

    You'll find plenty of opinions on this thread: https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-discussion/should-i-report-613923.html "Should I Report This?" Yet Another Bullying

  9. Ethical (?) Dilemma?

    Jolie replied to flashpoint's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for posting this. It gives an opportunity to discuss the decision making process in relation to filling open spots. I am an employer (not in healthcare) and being in this new position has...

  10. Email from nurse manager!

    Jolie replied to sophie<3's topic in General Students

    Good for you! E-mail back with a thank you for her response, and emphasize that you are looking forward to speaking with her again as graduation

  11. How's Omaha?

    Jolie replied to TESC'10's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the others that Creighton's educational programs are all excellent. Likewise, for a city of its size, Omaha has remarkably good healthcare via a number of hospital systems including...

  12. What are the best wound care resources available in Nebraska

    Jolie replied to LisaCarroll's topic in General Nursing

    Kearney has a fairly large and well-regarded hospital, Good Samaritan. That would at least be a starting point for a referral. Good

  13. Nursing action for L&D meds

    Jolie replied to nursingstudent_2012's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I thought so, which is why I reiterate my statement that I don't think you understand the mechanism of action of this drug. Giving Rhogam to a mother post-delivery does not protect her newborn from...

  14. To use or not to use vaccine consent forms

    Jolie replied to mickylynn969's topic in General Nursing

    As far as I understand from the CDC website, written consent is not required by federal law, but healthcare providers are legally bound to provide patients/guardians with the CDC VIS prior to...

  15. Nursing action for L&D meds

    Jolie replied to nursingstudent_2012's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Based upon this statement, I don't think you understand what Rhogam is and what it does. Giving an injection to the mother post-delivery does not protect her newborn from anything. Please read up on...

  16. Nursing action for L&D meds

    Jolie replied to nursingstudent_2012's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    You're getting hung up here. Of course you monitor for s/s of an allergic reaction with ANY med. That's a given, but it does not demonstrate that you have any knowledge of these specific meds. What...

  17. Nursing action for L&D meds

    Jolie replied to nursingstudent_2012's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I wouldn't stress over the nutrition bar. Most vitamins are water soluable. If the patient takes in a large amount of a vitamin due to food intake plus supplement, the kidneys will excrete the...

  18. Stuttering + interview???

    Jolie replied to nurseypoo87's topic in General Nursing

    As a former nurse manager and current business owner who interviews and hires on a regular basis, I would like to offer you some suggestions. First of all, there is nothing wrong with being honest...

  19. new diabetic student,need guidance pls

    Jolie replied to rdsxfnrn's topic in School

    While you certainly need to clarify the physician's orders at the first available opportunity, I would suggest that you communicate with the parents in the meantime. Most parents of diabetic children...

  20. Students and wet pants!

    Jolie replied to Lisagoldsberry's topic in School

    I worked in middle school for a year and never had this happen, thank goodness. I had a supply of clothes in my office, but they weren't "mine." They were brought in by the assist. principal, who was...

  21. Pregnant and promotion

    Jolie replied to LouisVRN's topic in General Nursing

    I think you are over-analyzing this. You basically have 2 options: apply for the job or not. One of those options guarantees that you will not be chosen. Good

  22. Lame Nurse Practitioner

    Jolie replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Did you call the clinic and ask to speak to a supervisor to register your

  23. Something wrong with this picture.

    Jolie replied to Mimi2RN's topic in General Nursing

    In my experience, it is necessary for an adult to give consent for the visit, but not necessarily to be present in the exam room. One clinic where I worked allowed parents to keep a form on file...

  24. Something wrong with this picture.

    Jolie replied to Mimi2RN's topic in General Nursing

    Shame on that mother for sending her teenage daughter back into the office to tell the practitioner that she would not have an MRI. Perhaps if she'd had a private conversation with the physician,...

  25. New job, really need advice:)

    Jolie replied to beccanurse's topic in School

    Perhaps you can PM Martha Bergren for advice. But as I understand it, BON mandates apply to all nurses in all settings. Your school isn't exempt because of its private status. As for state...
