  1. getting fired and then collecting your retirement

    Batman24 replied to iluvivt's topic in General Nursing

    Hi Beamer. I'm so sorry they are doing this to you after all you have done for them. It's always horrible and disheartening to read about this happening to wonderful nurses who spent their lives...

  2. Not a strong charge LPN...

    Batman24 replied to Fancy Face's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm sorry you are dealing with such immaturity. That makes a stressful and tiring day even more so. Here's what I would do... Tighten the reins on the problem CNAs ASAP. Start writing them up when...

  3. Becoming an RN just for the paycheck

    Batman24 replied to Nellie Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I have no problem with people going into nursing for a stable job and a good paycheck as long as they provide quality and compassionate care as

  4. How often do RNs clean up poop? (thinking about majoring in nursing)

    Batman24 replied to gwchem's topic in General Nursing

    Some days a lot and some days none at all. If a patient needs it you do it. It's not my fave thing but I always feel bad for my patient because I'm sure it 1000x worse for them being the one sitting...

  5. WVUturtle514...did you have your baby? How did it go?

    Batman24 replied to HappyNurse2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Your little baby doll is gorgeous. What a cutie pie!! I'm glad you are both home and doing

  6. Pt. nonresponsive on transfer to SNF

    Batman24 replied to southernbeegirl's topic in General Nursing

    You're an excellent nurse. The family must be so grateful he ended up in your care. I can totally understand why they didn't want him going back to the hospital. I'm glad you have all your ducks in a...

  7. can a nurse refuse to give vaginal cream to a patient?

    Batman24 replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't write this up

  8. can a nurse refuse to give vaginal cream to a patient?

    Batman24 replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

    Is this an elderly patient?! If it is I wonder if she's just not comfortable touching herself down below. I have seen that happen before with elderly patients. It might not be that she's lazy or...

  9. My 9 year old patient was raped and required surgery

    Batman24 replied to ssouthernyankee's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    You're an angel, ssouthernyankee. I'm so glad you and the little trooper got this video done and out of the way. I hope talking about it and knowing people are there to help her gives her a sense of...

  10. HIPPA & Family Members

    Batman24 replied to KatyAtlanta's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I'd sit down with all 3 of them prior to the surgery and let them know you don't want any of them to visit you in the hospital. Let them know you appreciate their concern but expect them to respect...

  11. Scheduling Dilemma

    Batman24 replied to magicalroy's topic in General Nursing

    I wuld bring in a copy of the schedule given to you and show it to your manager. I also wouldn't go in tonight if you have plans. It appears that you are working 2 holidays and have 2 off which seems...

  12. Worried

    Batman24 replied to Bonnielou99's topic in General Nursing

    I'm so sorry you have been so ill. I'm happy to read you are doing much better. God bless you. Scary that your co-workers who are nurses would consider a brain tumor a vacation. Dear Lord that's...

  13. Gee, thanks, Mom!

    Batman24 replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    Your family is toxic, Angel. I get the feeling you are the family whipping post and you need to put a stop to it when you are feeling strong and ready to do so. Your mother seems to get her jollies by...

  14. Weekenders Working Weekday Holiday?

    Batman24 replied to WeekenderSims's topic in General Nursing

    If you are hired for only weekends that's what you should work. I'd hold firm on this if I were a weekend only employee. They are changing the terms of your contract and if you did that they'd have a...

  15. $8000.00 Penalty for Quiting Critical Care Nurse Residency Program Before 3 Years

    Batman24 replied to krazykev's topic in General Nursing

    I think you answered your own question right there. Things aren't right at this facility. Look at the warning signs and don't let them take advantage of you. And let the recruiter know you want all...

  17. $8000.00 Penalty for Quiting Critical Care Nurse Residency Program Before 3 Years

    Batman24 replied to krazykev's topic in General Nursing

    I'm going with a big fat

  18. My 9 year old patient was raped and required surgery

    Batman24 replied to ssouthernyankee's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Tne father should rot in jail and if the mother knew and did nothing let her rot in the cell next to him. I'm tired of the leniency shown these predators. They should lock these child rapists up and...

  19. My 9 year old patient was raped and required surgery

    Batman24 replied to ssouthernyankee's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    You're a gift from God for this little girl. God bless you. You are an example of what the holidays are all about. Hugs!!

  20. Holiday Staffing Crisis- Hospital Setting

    Batman24 replied to WeekenderSims's topic in General Nursing

    If they have a contract for weekends only it will be hard to enforce. You could offer extra pay and see if that entices some to volunteer. If it's a shorter shift i.e. 8 hours versus 12 you also might...

  21. Seven 10 hour days followed by seven days off job offer

    Batman24 replied to krazykev's topic in General Nursing

    A 10 hour day is prob going to be an 11 hour day so I'd factor that in. On top of that you will need to add in your commute. It's a lot of days in a row so I think you'll be dead on your feet towards...

  22. My 9 year old patient was raped and required surgery

    Batman24 replied to ssouthernyankee's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    How anyone can hurt an innocent child like this is beyond me. Scum of the earth. My heart breaks for her and all the other children that are battered and abused. She is a lucky little girl to have...

  23. Hippa

    Batman24 replied to KatieBird's topic in General Nursing

    Agreed. And it's a really sweet thing the both of you are doing. I bet she is tickled pink that she's getting some extra TLC and that someone cared enough to buy her beautiful blanket. Nice job!!...

  24. Shift report and HIPPA

    Batman24 replied to GiGiRNICU's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    We don't do bedside report...thankfully. I believe they did it for about a week before I was hired and it went to the wayside due to O/T. It was costing a lot more per shift as it was taking triple...

  25. meeting with the hospital attorney next week

    Batman24 replied to tavalon's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Bring a lawyer. No doubt about
