We are all supposed to love our jobs and most of us do! But we are all supposed to over look just danged annoying behaviors. My pet peeve, I do not care for drama patients. You walk out in the hall and they are laughing and having fun with a visito...

Mine was.... I was a very young, too young DON at a care home. I was working late one night doing paperwork. I heard odd noises coming from outside my office. I went out to investigate and I saw Marjean, one of my fav's sitting under a tree rocking b...

You know those surgeons that when their patient is on their way to OR you ask the universe to please not let the surgeon kill this one, too? When their patient asks you, "Is my surgeon any good?" You can't tell them the truth, a floor nurse would lo...

Heh............

I have never experienced childbirth but I have experienced kidney stones and that is the most intense pain I have ever experienced in my life. An abscessed tooth does not begin to compare. That is drop to the ground and bury your face in the mud ki...

I do, her name was Katherine. She was a mean, thoughtless, nasty, cranky, older lady with a thick German accent in a SNF where I was DON. I really did not like this lady, she went of her way to be mean. When I would have a need to speak with her it...

DIE THREAD! DIE!!!

If someone is asking my opinion as a nurse, I expect they are probably looking for my opinion as a nurse. I think we can take technicalities to an extreme and it doesn't really benefit anyone. But then I am ballsy enough to document that a patient ...

Actually, the topic is weight loss. I really do not know what your problem is and at this point, I don't much care.

Argue all you wish, totally cool. I'm still standing behind what I quoted and what I wrote. This isn't a head scratcher.

Again........... I responded ONLY ****ONLY**** to the comment that inferred you have to eat meat to get B12. I don't give a bugs back side about veganism, I didn't respond to anything regarding veganism. I responded to the post that referred to meat ...

I understand that. Again, I wasn't responding to anything to do with veganism. I quoted the entire post of the comment I was responding to. I didn't quote anything to do with veganism.

I wasn't referring to vegans, I was referring to a comment that we have to have meat to get B12.

You can also get B12 from dairy and poultry.

I'm all for less meat for humane reasons as well as health reasons. But there is a massive difference of opinion in old science vs. new science when it comes to carbs. For each study you produce I can produce one differing with your study, see how ...

Oh my goodness, if I ate that way I would be big as a house again in no time. I could easily become vegetarian, not so sure I would do well with vegan. Low carb *or* low white carb does not necessarily go hand in hand with low calorie. If this style ...

Wow, I could have written that!

Maybe I read it wrong but my take on the post was that the OP did indeed witness the event AND she's "heard" this isn't the first time.

I don't think I ever had any concept of how often it happens until it was my job to pull the reports. At first I really felt bad for these nurses, they had a serious problem but when their coworkers describe the pain their patients are in but just du...

Again, I clarified. I give up, let's close the thread please. Sirl?

I love OR, can't get enough of it. Anatomy class that is actually interesting.

Oh good grief, I am aware of what I wrote, that is *why* I clarified. No need to be rude.

I agree. I was merely using the other poster's example of fast food. I also agree with you about sliders being the root cause of regain along with grazing. I am grazer, always have been, always will be but I learned what to graze on. Jicama, raw v...

I never heard of any of them so in my world they aren't celebs, they are just odd people dressed funny.

Or, maybe not. I'm pretty sure he is fully capable of explaining that himself vs. discussing his story if that is how he felt.
