  1. 2 Nurses needed???

    There are reasons for these policies. Part of being a "good and competent" nurse is not being afraid to ask a co-worker to double check you, especially with medication doses. If a hospital has a...
  2. Double entendres

    Thanks ayemmeff, I've seen some similar double entendres. :rotfl:
  3. How does death effect you?

  10. What Freaks You Out?

    Back to the maggot experiences. We had a patient arrive in his Caddilac, fairly new, but trashed. The driver had some physical limitations and hadn't been able to get out of his car for some time....
  11. What Freaks You Out?

    TBone, You've confused me. You were an army medic, but got out of the USMC? We saw some nasty stuff in the pathology lab at Fort WainWright too, so I can see where you're coming from. Nothing as bad...
  12. Divorce And Affairs????

    I don't believe that a career in nursing is inherently bad for a marriage. You need to have a relationship that is mutually supportive, and to respect each other for who you are and for who you may...
