  9. Part-time ICU

    Rhon1991 replied to pnurseuwm's topic in MICU, SICU

    My personal opinion is that it is difficult to work PT in ICU unless it is a unit you have been FT in for at least a year. Its difficult to keep your momentum up due to not used to being there and...

  10. First Wives Club author dead--Anesthesia related death?

    Rhon1991 replied to Toby's mum's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    It would be interesting to know what happened. Any best guesses? The first thing that came to my mind would be something like malignant hyperthermia... however a lady that age, I doubt this was her...

  11. Easy question for L&D nurses

    Rhon1991 posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    I hear of other women's labor experiences and I really have a hard time believing them... Is it not uncommon for a woman to 'sleep' through labor and not need any drug, no epidural and they just lie...

    Rhon1991 replied to Rhon1991's topic in Ob/Gyn

    FindingmywayRN, Yes, that is the kind of story I was looking for... that is amazing to me... what you were describing the 'cramping' was like what early labor felt like to me but then the contractions...

  13. Easy question for L&D nurses

    Rhon1991 replied to Rhon1991's topic in Ob/Gyn

  15. Easy question for L&D nurses

    Rhon1991 replied to Rhon1991's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I said 'peachy' for lack of better words... like the women that say, 'had him naturally... it wasnt so bad... had a little back ache... " Unless they are diabetic and have some *serious*...

  16. Induction craze

    Rhon1991 replied to Blizzard's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I didnt know that some L&D nurses viewed inductions so negatively... I am a cardiac/ICU nurse who also happens to be a control freak so I was all for inductions on my last 3 children. I loved...

  18. Did you get a flu shot?

    Rhon1991 posted a topic in General Nursing

  19. How many of you are depressed?

    Rhon1991 replied to skybirdrising's topic in General Nursing

  20. Did you get a flu shot?

    Rhon1991 replied to Rhon1991's topic in General Nursing

    Thats another thing... I also thought I had it last week but when it lasted only 4 days I thought maybe it wasnt the flu. The body aches are killer! I am just not understanding why some supposedly...

  21. The fatting of America.

    Rhon1991 replied to tgibson3770's topic in General Nursing

    I have to say I get that craving for McD's once in a while. What upsets me is the upsizing when I DID NOT ORDER IT. Driving out of state once, I handed back the LARGE fry saying I ordered a small,...

  23. giving report to a monster!!!

    Rhon1991 replied to itsnowbegun's topic in General Nursing

    This is NOT the kind of person you take around the corner to have a discussion with. That is confrontational and offensive. That is asking for trouble. I think its best to deal with the situation...
