    Placed on hospital committee

    Oh, yes...I neglected to include anything but tobacco related stuff, but it is against policy to "smell like anything" really. Again, I don't know if anyone has suffered any consequeces, but that...

    "The Jesus Factor"

    Does David Koresh (Aug 17, 1959 - April 19, 1993), leader of the Branch Davidians, ring a bell? Just continue to think for yourselves. Everyone needs beliefs and a polarizing spot...but common sense...

    help with resume

    Okay, I just finished up as a member of a search committee for a new clinical instructor and poured over many a resume. First or third person makes NO impression. We need no license #, just state the...

    Have you read the "Jesus Factor"

    "The Jesus Factor"

    Yes..."HER BURDEN", not the patient's. The "judge" in this case does not appear to be God. And the holistic nursing approach is all about what is right for the uniquely individual patient, not the...

    Undecidable situation

    You could go LPN/LVN-RN-BSN, but I think it would take you longer. However, you could be working as a nurse at the same time. The programs available are endless. What state will you be studying

    Placed on hospital committee

    Well, that is the policy...I don't know if there have been challenges to legality or if they have taken anyone to task for infractions. This info is all built into our students clinical orientation...

    disgusted with MD, what do I do?

    Notify your nurse manager, your DON, the hospital administrator and the chief of medical staff. Write it in a formal letter format including the c.c. to everyone receiving the letter (the same letter...

    Placed on hospital committee

    Well...I wasn't any part of the committee, but was around during the "event" induction (as a clinical instructor, not a hospital employee). They did conduct surveys and entertained, even invited, any...

    "The Jesus Factor"

    "without their knowledge"...this is the unselfish christian attitude that I haven't heard yet, and can appreciate! Simple acts of kindness done without expectation of thanks or need for announcing...

    "The Jesus Factor"

    Ummm...the meaning of the post was that it is the PATIENT who is in the awful spot. And "throwing pearls to swine"? Diamonds are a girls best friend, although I am rather into some of the colored...

    Hating nurses? What is going on?

    This is true of all occupations...and why it is repeated again and again the nurses need thick skins. People expect us to actually care and act with general kindness, and when this is not their...

    Study Habbits

    Associations....build on what you know. Start with systems...general A&P, then disorders and diseases. Picture the normal working system in you head. Add diseases or disorders one at a time...

    Medical/Legal Charting

    Oh dear...this is not easy. If you stumble upon anything like this, I think it must be reported to the charge nurse. Hopefully she will deduce the same thing you did...if not, the topic must be...

    Job Discrimnation !

    See.....even this, spoken in earnest (I assume) can sound condescending and even threatening to those who are not coming from the same "place" as you are. OP...I can see why you could be inadvertantly...
