  1. The most embarrasing thing you've done at work!

    CseMgr1 replied to ClaireMacl's topic in Nursing Humor

    I think we could ALL use an economy-sized bottle of

  2. RUDE pt and spouse=everyone fired from care!

    CseMgr1 replied to melrina75's topic in General Nursing

    Once again, you have hit the NAIL on the head, my friend. And I, myself am growing increasingly weary of Management's tolerance of this kind of behavior also, in order to score brownie points with...

  3. lost my license, my self-esteem, confidence and respect all in one shift

    CseMgr1 replied to Alibaba's topic in General Nursing

    Just another example of our sick healthcare system being on life support itself, discharging unstable and dying patients like this fellow to an inappropriate level of care and leaving us to pick up...

  4. Family member complaints

    CseMgr1 replied to Nurse1966's topic in General Nursing

    Good timing for this thread, for we just had a meeting on Friday about this same subject, that our salaries are also going to be based on customer satisfaction in the very near future. How unfair can...

  5. kicked out of school- failed professionalism!

    CseMgr1 replied to m_lanham's topic in General Nursing

    I also saw nurses (and doctors) do a lot of things I didn't necessarily agree with while I was a student. One incident which I will never forget was witnessing an intern trying to insert a foley...

  6. Good vibes and prayers for Fun2Care!

    CseMgr1 replied to Race Mom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    fun, it took me ten years to get into the nursing program of my choice, after being turned down several times. if you want it as much as i did, you'll make it this time. when i finally graduated, my...

  7. Mad! Signed a contract...called off -

    CseMgr1 replied to Ashera's topic in Agency Nurses

    A similar thing happened to me late year, after I signed up with an agency to do contractural work for a facility as an auditor. After completing two interviews, I am called by the recruiter and told...

  8. Sick of Doctor's attitudes

    CseMgr1 replied to KAW1962's topic in General Nursing

    I am fortunate enough to personally have doctors who are like the ones you describe in your first sentence. My PCP, Orthopods and Pain Management Specialists have been absolute gems. The others need...

  9. It's a girl! I delivered on Thursday!

  10. Background/Credit Check, Bankruptcy

    CseMgr1 replied to markjrn's topic in General Nursing

    You SAID it!

  11. Background/Credit Check, Bankruptcy

    CseMgr1 replied to markjrn's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, twice. My late mother was chronically ill for years. When she was working and had group insurance, her coverage was inadequate and she got stuck with thousands of dollars of unpaid medical and...

  12. Background/Credit Check, Bankruptcy

    CseMgr1 replied to markjrn's topic in General Nursing

    My understanding is that a bankruptcy stays on your credit report for ten years by the three reporting agencies (Experian, Transunion and Equifax) before it is expunged. Background checks can include...

  13. Background/Credit Check, Bankruptcy

    CseMgr1 replied to markjrn's topic in General Nursing

    Ridiculous. My late parents were initially denied an application to open a checking account at a local bank, when their credit history revealed they had been through two bankruptcies. My mother...

  14. New to Home Health....any tips or advice?

    CseMgr1 replied to jkaee's topic in Home Health

    Another publication you will need to become familiar with is the HIM-11, Medicare's "Bible" on Home Health. Your agency office will more than likely have a copy available. You can also download a copy...

  15. Background/Credit Check, Bankruptcy

    CseMgr1 replied to markjrn's topic in General Nursing

    No, it hasn't changed. When I signed up to do temporary work at a facility last year, and had to sign a release for them to perform my background check, it clearly stated that a credit check would not...

  16. april 2 is daylight saving time...love or hate

    CseMgr1 replied to ak47m203's topic in General Nursing

    I just hate having to reset all my clocks and watches.

  17. Nursing Shortage

    CseMgr1 replied to olichi's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I think the nursing shortage is due to the combination of factors: A growing elderly population, baby boomer nurses entering retirement, nurses leaving the clinical areas to go to work in the private...

  18. frustrated and overwhelmed

    CseMgr1 replied to kelluvanurse's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    I lasted ONE week at my first and only attempt at Hospice six years ago. I should have figured out something was wrong, when they hired me on the spot and didn't bother to tell me until I started...

  19. Why are RN's not drawn to HH? Only LPN's?

    CseMgr1 replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in Home Health

    This doesn't make any sense. 99.9% of the nurses that I precepted as a former supervisor in HH didn't have any previous experience, and having a BSN wasn't even a variable. What WAS required,...

  20. My job was eliminated

    CseMgr1 replied to shari_rn's topic in Nurse Management

    I was faced with a similar situation six years ago, when my supervisory position with a HHA was abruptly eliminated. They refused to give me another job description and used me as their gopher, giving...

  21. I take boards this morning at 9 am

    CseMgr1 replied to islandti_patty's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I remember very well the morning I took my LPN boards many moons ago. My Mom dropped me off at the testing site on her way to work. After being checked in by a Monitor, I sat down at one of the long...

  22. Migraine Poll for Nurses

    CseMgr1 replied to NewEnglandRN's topic in General Nursing

    I was having up to two migraines a month, before I quit that pressure cooker job I was working in. Now I am having one migraine every other month, maybe less. I have a prescription for injectable...

  23. LPN programs in metro-Atlanta area??

    CseMgr1 replied to pitaha's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Additional programs include West Central Technical College, with campuses in Waco, Newnan, Carrollton and Douglasville. P.S.: I am a former graduate of Atlanta Tech. GREAT

  24. Tips for New Nurse Educators

    CseMgr1 replied to VickyRN's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I interviewed earlier this week for a Practical Nursing Instructor position at a local technical college. Even though I know I won't be hired (I am a Diploma graduate), the thought of being able to...

  25. The nightmare returns---Hunter Group is coming!!!

    CseMgr1 replied to prmenrs's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Would she had rather you used the more anatomically correct word "buttocks", instead? I could think of another word...which would be justifiably appropriate for the Hunter Group and others, who need...
