  1. Congratulations To Charles And Camilla

    sbic56 replied to madwife2002's topic in International Nursing

    Too bad he didn't marry Camilla in the first place, as she is obviously his only love and vice versa. But, if that happened there would be no William and Harry. Things happen as they are supposed to...

  2. Grey's Anatomy Premier!!! + How to Contact Show Creators

    sbic56 replied to miya's topic in General Nursing

    Ditto on that thought. Also, I think all the complaining makes us look like a bunch of whiny-butts which is even worse than what these producers dream up, because it's coming directly from nurses....

  3. Alcohol Withdrawl

    sbic56 replied to zambezi's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think the ER is the place for anyone to be who is going through ETOH withdrawal, but like mental health clients, they end up there because often there is nowhere else for them to go. It's...

  4. Grey's Anatomy Premier!!! + How to Contact Show Creators

    sbic56 replied to miya's topic in General Nursing

    That's right. People are people. We are more like than unlike them. I get the same enjoyment reading the thoughtful and intelligent posts there as I do here. It's really kind of strange that nurses...

  5. Grey's Anatomy Premier!!! + How to Contact Show Creators

    sbic56 replied to miya's topic in General Nursing

    Asside from the nurse bashing, (hey we are guilty of bashing them, aren't we?), that site is worth checking out! I just spent the last 2 hours reading some really interesting posts. The religious...

    sbic56 replied to miya's topic in General Nursing

    I wans't offended or overly impressed with Grey's. Not a true TV fan anyway, but like someone said...not worth getting upset over as it's all just

  7. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    sbic56 replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    That's right, Tweety...to me maintaining basic autonomic function is not synonomous with life. I watched my mom die. Call me crazy, but I absolutely believe I felt her spirit as it left. That was...

    sbic56 replied to miya's topic in General Nursing

    I'm checking out that show right now...preparing to be offended.

  9. Scripting: Yea or Nay?

    sbic56 replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    I am so tempted to annonymously send the link to this thread to the CEO of the hospital where I work (just per diem now, BTW) They think this stuff is so

  10. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    sbic56 replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    I see you assume that your beliefs are fact to all. They aren't. It' s the differences in what people believe constitutes life that provokes all the debate. This woman could not swallow, so I believe...

  11. 1950s nursing

    sbic56 replied to colrainrn's topic in General Nursing

    Hehehe...you'd have hated most hospitals in the 60's then, as that is the first thing you could smell when you walked in! (Maybe earlier, but I only remember as far back as the '60's. :wink2:

    This is a pretty good resource:

  13. I am looking to relocate to my husbands hometown state of maine

    sbic56 replied to sunlovin35's topic in General Nursing

    what part are you moving to? nursing jobs are plentiful, so i don't think you'll have a hard time finding one. you might want to check out the hospital websites to check out their job listings....

  14. Scripting: Yea or Nay?

    sbic56 replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    I suppose the "I have the time" line might be effective if you could say it with a straight face!

    sbic56 replied to colrainrn's topic in General Nursing

    I miss the smell of tincture of

  16. Scripting: Yea or Nay?

    sbic56 replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    I think we all have our own way of saying things that work for us. I wouldn't want every nurse that walked in the room to sound like the last one. That would make me feel like an inanimate object...

  17. Scripting: Yea or Nay?

    sbic56 replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    http://www.baptistleadershipinstitute.com/Articles/Articles.aspx?ContentID=100004 This link pretty much sums it up. I had already learned how to communicate effectively prior to "scripting" being all...

  20. OB Nurses - Please read! Very worried about my sister!

    sbic56 replied to New CCU RN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    If she has changed from 15% to 100% effaced and is still having contractions at 31 weeks, it is something to be concerned about. No harm in getting a second

  21. Psychiatric side effects monitoring form

    sbic56 replied to sbic56's topic in Psychiatric

    It sounds like I could use that form! I'm can reconstruct it for our use, but no sense in reinventing the wheel totally. I'll PM you and send you my email

  22. Psychiatric side effects monitoring form

    sbic56 posted a topic in Psychiatric

    Regulations want us to have something in place that shows we monitor for side effects.I am in the process of trying to develop a form that CRMA staff can use as an aid to help them to monitor for side...

  23. Psychiatric side effects monitoring form

    sbic56 replied to sbic56's topic in Psychiatric

    Sure, I'd like to look at it. I have to include more than just motor assessment, but it could be a guide perhaps. I'll PM you and send my email.

    sbic56 replied to orchid's topic in First Year After Licensure

    You can do it! It takes at least 6 months to feel like you know what you are doing, but you'll get there. Just be a sponge...soak up all that experience around you and through it all you will develop...
