To; Mother Of 2girlslpn. Thank You For Your Reply. To Help You In Your Question. Perhaps You Can Work One Or Two Shifts A Week To Start And Take Advantage Of The In Service Offered. Know It Is Tough To Take Care Of Children And Work (been There) But Hang In There. Maybe Trade Off Babysitting With Another Nurse Who Is In Same Boat. Good Luck. Oldflossie

i support physician assisted sucide in as much the patient is terminal and in a lot of pain. i think the decision should be ultimately the patients and family after speaking with their cleryman, doctor and administration. by assistance, i mean stop all measures, give pain medications and keep the patient as comfortable as possible until nature takes its cause. many people with dnr do not get a chance to verbalize their wishes, because decisions are made by family who is emotional and noticable under stress. nurses can draw on their own feelings privately but the patients wishes should be paramount in all cases. thanks for listening.

Need Info Please: I Hold An Active License, Until 2009. Although I Am Retired, I Do Volunteer Hours At Community Clinic. If I Do Not Have Ceu's For Renewal And Let License Lapse, I Am Told I Can No Longer Do Volly Work At Clinic? I Do Triage And Vs But No Other Invasive Treatments. I Do Teach Patients Correct Use Of Meds, With Pharacist. My Question Is; Can I Continue To Do Volunteer Nursing Until Unable? I Am 71 Years Old And Would Like To Continue If Possible. Please Advise. It Worries Me. Thanks.
