5. Do you need to carry your personal cell phone while at work?

   rnin02 replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

   I think that's the key...if you know your employer's position before you take the job, then what's the problem? You either accept the job and all the rules or you find a different one. Policies...

6. Vitamin K administration legal/ethical nightmare!

   rnin02 replied to IndigoCarmine's topic in Ob/Gyn

   My hospital has a form parents can sign if they wish to decline the Vit K or the erythromycin ointment. That form becomes part of the chart. I don't bother arguing with them...what's the point? At...

   rnin02 replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

13. What do you think about a nurse breastfeeding infant at nurse's station during break?

    rnin02 replied to mitchsmom's topic in Ob/Gyn

14. What do you think about a nurse breastfeeding infant at nurse's station during break?

    rnin02 replied to mitchsmom's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Is it an "open" station, right in front of the patient rooms, so patients can walk right up to it? If so, then I think it is just a tad bit inappropriate! A little unprofessional to nurse your baby...
