    Vaccination Mandating

    PMFB-RN replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There is just such a system in place obviously. I want to know who is going to compensate employers if their unvaxxed employee is unable to work due to being in the ICU with COVID? Many of...

    Patient Abandonment

    PMFB-RN replied to PMFB-RN's topic in General Nursing

    That's good advice but I have it handled. I have a very long relationship with this hospital. The DON used to be my nursing student and is a friend of my wife's. I'm fishing buddies with two of the 3...

    DNP but still a staff nurse?

    PMFB-RN replied to purplecali's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I don't know if it's worth it for you or not. But I can tell you that at my hospital we have quite a few bedside staff RNs with DNPs. My hospital has a generous tuition assistance program so many...

    No, you won't lose your license. Simple and honest mistake. In my long career these are the things I have seen nurses lose their license for: stealing drugs taking drugs accepting...

    COVID Forever Changed Our Society

    PMFB-RN replied to Yvonne Hosey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Changing the Conversation about COVID to Get More People Vaccinated

    PMFB-RN replied to LeChele Mack's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Naw. The unvaxxed had and have absolutely zero concern for our feeling or concerns so I don't feel any obligation to care about theirs. All the data I've seen indicates that mandates are very...

    New nurse, just told to find another unit

    PMFB-RN replied to MariannaCNMstudent's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Valid Reasons To Not Get Vaccinated

    PMFB-RN replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    All the "reasons" given for not being vaccinated are illogical and/or false. We shouldn't be be looking at whatever excuses they have for refusing to get vaccinated. Doing so gives their excuses...

    Valid Reasons To Not Get Vaccinated

    PMFB-RN replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yes, it definitely is all good. Those who avoided getting vaccinated had absolutely zero regard for how WE felt, didn't care about OUR resentment. I have the same total lack of concern over...

    Full Practice Authority of Nursing

    I think your embarrassment is well founded. However that is a totally different topic. The DNP programs don't add a single clinical hour or practice related class. The NP and CRNA...

    Vaccination Mandating

    PMFB-RN replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This is so true. I only wish the freedom hating (as evidenced by them depriving others of our freedom) anti vaxxers would embrace our capacity of self determinization. Instead they gleefully deprive...

    What has proven to increase vaccination rates are vaccine mandates. I hope we have more of them. A side benefit it that the mandates prevent the anti vax bullies from depriving us of our...
