  1. But I have little kids!

    angelac1978 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    Agent, I really don't see anyone here saying or acting like they are the most important people in the world. I think what most people are saying is that holidays should be staffed fairly, that those...

  2. But I have little kids!

    angelac1978 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    excellent post Ruby Vee! So since I am an arrogant childless person, myself, I should forego spending a holiday with my mom who has MS and is going down hill very quickly? I should miss seeing my...

  3. Need to loose weight for me health!!!

    angelac1978 replied to LPN-n-2005's topic in General Nursing

    I agree on both of these points, it may seem like a lot of water at first but you get used to it and then if you ever don't drink your 64oz, you will notice because you will feel the difference, you...

  4. A & P Books

    angelac1978 replied to hoppermom3's topic in General Students

    to add to what John posted, if the school won't give you a copy of the syllabus, sometimes you can find it online if the school has a course catalog that is online. we did this for my husband's...

  5. No, no, no, I am getting a bad cold!!!

    angelac1978 replied to TeresaRN2b's topic in General Students

    I have had good experiences w/ Zycam as well. It's a very weird sensation though, because you don't inhale the gel, you just squirt it into your nostrils and let it absorb. The best thing that helps...

  6. "Clean" areas of nursing? Need advice.

    angelac1978 replied to ideastoday's topic in General Nursing

    I really hope this comment was meant to be tongue in cheek. If not, this attitude is really not necessary and the root of a lot of the in-fighting between some hospital departments. Now, to the OP,...

  7. The happiest healthcare workers

    angelac1978 replied to Bambi's topic in General Nursing

    Bambi, there is a message board that has an ultrasound discussion on it. it's http://www.radiography.com and there are several posts that list websites that have listings of accredited schools. Off...

  8. Plasma Donation

    angelac1978 replied to meandragonbrett's topic in General Students

    I used to donate plasma all the time the first time I went through college. Back then, you only got $35/wk if you went twice a week. They have changed the pay scale and they base it more on your...

  9. So discouraged over A&P, ready to give up nursing plans

    angelac1978 replied to evi's topic in General Students

    I have to agree with you on this one. A & P 2 was MUCH easier, well easier isn't the right word, maybe it just made more sense. A & P 2 is more about how the body systems work independently...

  10. So discouraged over A&P, ready to give up nursing plans

    angelac1978 replied to evi's topic in General Students

    don't give up! I struggled with A & P at first as well. The trick that I learned that helped tremendously was to make flash cards of EVERYTHING! I work a lot of hours as well and I was able to...

  11. eeewww...these scrubs are stiff!!

    angelac1978 replied to sagelola's topic in General Students

    try soaking them in a liquid fabric softener like Downy, then wash them, put more Downy in the rinse cycle and then used a Bounce sheet in the dryer. I know, it sounds like alot, but with a...

  12. Nursing as a customer service profession?

    angelac1978 replied to EmeraldNYL's topic in General Nursing

    You know, I really don't buy the whole "the patient is our customer" business. IN the hospital I worked in, we weren't even supposed to call patients patients. The "proper" term was either customer...
