  1. Could she do this?

    Is it one of the antibiotics you can measure with a peak and troph? I wonder how many times the med was held by this nurse before you ever found out about her OPINION. Because that is what it is,...
  2. an inmate you seems think he owns the prison

    I just don't know how you guys do
  3. I don't understand. Please
  4. Is this abandonment?

    My state (Missouri) considers sleeping on the job a form of patient abandonment. I fully agree with this and think people have been getting away with it for too long. What do you
  5. Please don't eat your young.

    i don't think you offended anyone. we just would like to see the stereotype go away. there was nothing wrong with your post. good
  6. Is this abandonment?

    This may be true (power naps) for people that can wake right up and get back to the task at hand. I have seen too many people moping around for the rest of the shift in a daze and yawning nonstop...
  7. Crystal, I totally agree with you here. Plus, there are nurses from many different countries on this forum and they may not even use LPN's in their country. I totally understand that. Good
  8. I was really trying to avoid this topic today but when I read your post, I determined it was a sign for me to speak up. Most people on this forum show as much respect to LPN's as they do to RN's....

  10. I cannot UNDERSTAND lazy people!

    :rotfl:
  11. Is this abandonment?

    But why would anyone need to sleep while they are at work? I have had occasion to sleep at work one time in all my years: I was working day shift and had a terrible migraine. The choices were to...
  12. Please don't eat your young.

    I hate when students say nurses "eat their young". When I was a student I did not experience any such thing and as a nurse I bring my own lunch. Mean people are mean people anywhere you go and in...
  13. Is this abandonment?

    I don't think it was meant to be interpreted that way. I would think it was for the cases we see so many times where it's noc shift and you can't find your staff; only to find that they are sleeping...
  14. I cannot UNDERSTAND lazy people!

    Not in my state. I am responsible for my license, no one else is. I am an LPN and I am a supervisor. I just went on an interview to be a DON. NO ONE but me is responsible for my license. I am my...
  15. Crazy stuff can happen

    OMG NO!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know whether to laugh or cry or throw up.
  16. should i have questioned it??

    I'm an LPN with almost 12 years experience and I would not have given it UNLESS the physician clarified and amended the allergy status. And I would chart every single call I made; to the pharmacist,...
  17. dilemma

    I've never had Starbuck's. By the way Tazzi, love the new picture! Yes, I know everybody, I'm :offtopic: . So sorry.
  18. One quiz question I am struggling with

    You have to let us know the correct answer when you get
  19. I cannot UNDERSTAND lazy people!

    Shortage of RN's? Do you mean shortage of NURSES? Because I believe the shortage applies to us lowly LPN's
  20. dilemma

    Girl! You are going to have to be more assertive for the wellfare of your patients. You know that CNA that told you that taking extra blankets to the dying patient is a "waste of blankets":nono: ?...
  21. Crazy stuff can happen

    Awww
  22. should i have questioned it??

    Awesome catch! :yelclap: :yelclap: :yelclap: :yelclap:
  23. Posting fears...

    Not on this forum. At least nothing that could hurt me. Everything I say about the places I work I say loudly for all to hear and don't care what anyone thinks (Missouri forum). But I did ask some...
  24. Ughhhh. Don't you hate walking in on those cliques? For now on when you are asked to work a double, you ask what you want. You say, "As long as I'm on the same assignment that I usually work"; "As...
  25. Is this a big deal or not?

    I'm sure it was innocent, and it sounds like your nurse manager thinks so too. But this is why you should never pocket any narcs. I know, I've done it too. But it just gives people reason to...
