  1. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Out of those ideas, only the church thing might be a possibility. Although there is a coffee house close by too. The problem with the church thing is I could only go certain days of the week in the...

  2. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    I know what your saying about the conversation. I tried to ask some questions and then hope the lady will ask me some, but the ladies tonight did'nt seem to ask many so I assumed they were'nt...

  3. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Agreed, but what kind of hobby if you don't really have any interests? I like sports cars, watching movies, surfing the net, body building, and I like animals. I guess those are'nt really good hobbies...

  4. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Well I just got back from the potluck/dace. Not quite what I expected. The people seemed nice enough, but there were only a couple ladies out of about 100 people that I would consider attractive...

  5. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Yeah, sounds like a plan. But at least my sister will be there and she could introduce me to some of the ladies. She did say there were more women than men there, although a lot of them may be a...

  6. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Well, I was'nt intending for the other girl to ask her for me. I was just trying to get info on whether or not she had a bf because I heard she had one, but when I asked she said she did'nt, but when...

  7. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Well since we don't actually work on the same shift as her and the owner is seeing a nurse, I decided to take the risk and called her. She said ok to the date and asked when. I was a little hesitant...

  8. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Well we don't really see much of each other now except for at the change of shift for a couple minutes. They don't always go by all the rules at the company and my sis even suggested I ask the DON if...

  9. dating at work?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Men in Nursing

    Well, I'm an LPN and she's an aide. I just asked my sister about it as she's older and also a nurse and she said why not just go out to lunch and be friends and take it slow. There is no rule against...

  10. smoking and UC

    Medsport posted a topic in Health, Stress Management

    I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis about 12 years ago. It was pretty bad for awhile, mostly the bloody diarrhea. The local, small town doctors put me on high doses of prednisone for too long and...

  11. Interview

    Medsport posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I just got a call for an interview at a behavioral center. I'm an LPN and have worked in corrections, nursing homes and most recently assisted living. There are a few Alzheimer patients on one wing...

  12. Interview

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks for the replies, but I just called and cancelled after thinking about it and talking with my mom. Its just not realistic as it would take quite awhile to sell my house I would think. Now if it...

  14. Interview?

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in Psychiatric

  16. write up

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hey guys, I just noticed that they still have an ad for a nurse and they already hired two to replace the two that are quitting and the rumor is they are'nt looking for a PRN right now. It kind of...

  17. write up

    Medsport posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hey guys I just got my first write up at the assisted living facility I've been at for about 6 months. Is it common to get write ups once in awhile? It makes me feel bad as I don't think I really...

  18. Healthcare reform

    Medsport replied to moneyline702's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    2013? So we have about 3 years until it goes into effect. A lot will change by then. I will most likely be in another job by then as nobody has ever stayed where I'm at for more than a year or two...

  19. Healthcare reform

    Medsport replied to moneyline702's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    So this passed today, what exactly does it mean? I hear rumors they are going to make you pay for insurance or pay a penalty. My small company does'nt offer it (well I think they do but it's like $170...

  20. write up

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah, there is only one nurse on 3rd and just last week they were thinking of getting a PRN nurse as the other 3rd shift nurse was sick one day and they called me and I worked...

  21. Hernia or Torn Muscle - What kinda doc to see?

    Medsport replied to rdnkjdi's topic in General Nursing

    10. If I was you I would'nt do the run until I knew what was wrong. I've worked around injuries before as I'm a weight lifter, but as I get older I'm more cautious than when I was younger as I know...

  22. write up

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks for the replies. I guess you're right, I need to think of it as a learning experience. My charting did'nt have anything about the family response either. Come to think of it another nurse had...

  23. write up

    Medsport replied to Medsport's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Well, no I wrote in the letter I was pretty sure I told them she was going to the ER. I'm 99.9% sure I did and an aide was even standing beside me when I called and she thinks I told them too. But...

  24. Would you take the flu shot?

    Medsport replied to sasha2lady's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    That's crazy! You should'nt be forced to get it if you chose not to. I would most likely get the flu shot if my company offered it, but it does'nt look like they are as they went with an outside...
