  2. so disappointed :(

    TrudyRN replied to JuliaR's topic in General Nursing

    A facility has the right to do what is best "for the needs of the service", not the needs of the workers. However - any manager worth a dime will care enough about her workers to discuss this type of...

  3. So Depressed!!!

    TrudyRN replied to rnmomtobe2010's topic in General Nursing

    I'd drop her a note if she wouldn't take my calls. She needs to know how immature and selfish and destructive her behavior is. That way, once you calmly, maturely let her know, maybe she won't do it...

  5. Different Stem Cell Treatments Both Produce Results For Two Similar Spinal Cord Injur

    TrudyRN replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    While I can relate to impoverished taxpayers anywhere, I believe China benefits from Most Favored Nation Status and no or low tariffs on their exports to US. Let them pay for the stem cell tx that...

  6. Night Shift Workers- How Do You Stay Awake?

    TrudyRN replied to changeofpaceRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't always stay awake. Fortunately, I sleep pretty well during the day if I go home and go straight to bed. I turn off the phone, leave my cell close by for use only by those to whom I have given...

  9. Really scared after reading "No I wouldn't reccomend nursing"!

    TrudyRN replied to azmistie's topic in General Nursing

    Some of the jobs that nurses can do include: teach in a school of nursing (You need a Master's or Ph.D. to do this.) work as a school nurse (great if you like being off when the school is closed and...

  11. My school Sucks!

    TrudyRN replied to MedicGA's topic in General Nursing

    I understand the OP's frustration but I wonder - if she were the one who failed, would she agree to be thrown out and not given yet another chance, and maybe even another and another, to remediate?...

  12. My school Sucks!

    TrudyRN replied to MedicGA's topic in General Nursing

    I must disagree with this view. I don't think patients should have to be exposed to any more dangers than they already are. I think a lot of students are passed up to the next level by instructors...

  14. Ever Been Called To Provide A Deposition

    TrudyRN replied to kTIE's topic in General Nursing

    If you are the defendant, you should have your own attorney. If you are not the defendant, I'm really not sure. All the advice above is right on. Answer only the question that is asked, nothing more....

  15. Help Needed

    TrudyRN replied to chibuzor's topic in International Nursing

    Not to be dumb here but what does CGNFS stand for? Something about competency for nurses from foreign schools, I guess. Chibuzor, I don't know how to help you but it looks like others here do. I...

  16. If you could do it over again, would you choose nursing?

    TrudyRN replied to jollyjenny's topic in General Nursing

    radiology techs also work 24/7, although presumably they mostly work days and might be on call for the ER, OR, ICU situations that can't wait. US does offer better pay. Not sure how to advise you but...

  17. Disclosure of Depression to Nursing School

    TrudyRN replied to WannaBmaleRN's topic in General Nursing

    It's nobody's business. Next, they'll ask about your sex life, religion, pregnancy plans/status, marital status, and lots of other issues that are banned - although the Fed gov often exempts itself...

  18. Scholarships

    TrudyRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    For those who are seeking a little financial aid - try The Federal Nurse Traineeship. Congress sets aside federal monies q year. Every nursing student who applies can get some, until it runs out....

  21. urgent!! please help

    TrudyRN replied to mimmy123's topic in General Nursing

    True enough. Somehow, though, and you can start flaming me, it seems to come down to, in the final analysis, the dominant culture is bad and must do all the adjusting so that the minority culture can...

  22. When should enough be enough?

    TrudyRN replied to MelodyRNurse's topic in General Nursing

  24. Getting Divorced During Nursing School

    TrudyRN replied to NBMom1225's topic in General Nursing
