  1. ethical dilemma....nurse lied.

    jill48 replied to snowflake123's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe she was embarassed. Or maybe she was afraid someone on here may recognize who she was, maybe even works with her. I'm just glad she came and asked for the advice, even if she never writes...

  2. Please don't say "I told you so"

    jill48 replied to LovebugLPN's topic in General Nursing

    jill48 replied to jill48's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    jill48 replied to MsKieshaRN's topic in General Nursing

  7. Please don't say "I told you so"

    jill48 replied to LovebugLPN's topic in General Nursing

    First of all, this isn't burnout, so don't be afraid of that. Second, don't go back; and call the state. If it is as bad as you say, state should know about it; if it was just some kind of a weirdo...

  8. floating

    jill48 replied to remched's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    jill48 replied to Ga_LPN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  21. What would you do?

    jill48 replied to JennieO's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds like the situation has gone on far too long. I'm not in your position, so I don't know how feasible it would be, but if I were the charge nurse, I would quietly say to her "Excuse me, I think...

    jill48 replied to mim-o's topic in General Nursing
