  1. Should this be reported??

    mazy replied to nicenurselpn's topic in General Nursing

    i guess i'm not understanding why you presented this question the way you did. what is your question? that a nurse might use one patient's med for another patient? that such a nurse can continue to...

  2. Passing Meds

    mazy replied to scaredtorelocate's topic in General Nursing

    Can you post the name of the med? I'd be interested to know what it is and what they're using it

  4. New LPN Job Dilemma

    mazy replied to cdb2985's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I would suggest that before you make any decisions about whether to stay or go, that you be very careful about finding out what the other job will be like. Three dollars more for third shift sounds...

  5. Should this be reported??

    mazy replied to nicenurselpn's topic in General Nursing

    What is this "hypothetical" "wink wink"? Does that mean it's real? Does that mean the "friend" is actually you? You seem to think this is funny, wink, wink. I think you need to stay out of

  6. Ranting!...

    mazy replied to brotherbear's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know, OP sounds rather aggressively aggressive. I have at times been so lost in thought that I have had people stand in front of me and wave their hands around to get my attention....

  7. How am I going to get the time off for a tummy tuck?

    mazy replied to NurseLady1's topic in General Nursing

    Very well put and pretty much says it

  8. Theme music

    mazy replied to LegzRN's topic in General Nursing

    This has kept me going through the tough times: Lately it's been this; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmLcWQTb-3k Do not listen if sensitive to

  9. How am I going to get the time off for a tummy tuck?

    mazy replied to NurseLady1's topic in General Nursing

    I would think that having a tummy tuck falls into the same category as breast reduction -- yes there is a component of aesthetics but it really is about physical comfort. There are some things that we...

  10. Proposition for a Nursing Revolt

    mazy replied to PintheD's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, this is a real frustration for me. I'm a union member and vocal about nurse advocacy, and before going into nursing worked in civil rights advocacy/public policy. So this is a fight I know how to...

  11. LPN's / LVN's: Are they respected?

    mazy replied to lillysmomma's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Oh sigh. I don't know. There are about a million threads on this forum on the subject. Who has the energy anymore with

  12. Immanuel Kant - Theory/Ethics

    mazy replied to BROWNEYEDNURSE13's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Fantastic

  13. First shift at new facility, heard something don't know how it should be handled.

    mazy replied to sweetsleep28's topic in General Nursing

    That would really bother me too. It feels invasive and icky. But it sounds like that other nurse has some issues too that will eventually come back to bite her in the rear. I don't think it's worth...

  14. How do you deal with an ignorant co-worker? Humble me with your advice, nurses!

    mazy replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in General Nursing

    OP, something was bothering me about your post. Then I took a closer look and realized that you used the word "I" forty-one times. Yes. I counted. It was really bugging me. I didn't have the energy to...

  15. With the way nursing is today, the common sense thing would be...

    mazy replied to Spikey9001's topic in General Nursing

    Problems usually don't "fix themselves." They require people to fix them. In order to fix them people have to talk about

  17. Brand new Nurse in charge of Veteran CNAs

    mazy replied to beatrice1's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    A good CNA is worth their weight in gold. They can be your greatest resource, they know the patients inside and out, and the floor, and the other nurses, and the supervisors, and the politics. They...

  18. LTAC vs Hospital - what's the diff?

    mazy replied to Nurse SMS's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    This really sums up the world of LTAC very well. I think it's an amazing learning experience for a student, given that you're not worried about drawing a salary. One thing I would like to add is that...

  19. Sympathy strike...would you do it??

    mazy replied to notachargenurse's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    we're going to end up going way off here and probably need to reel it in, but the creation of scapegoats and abandonment of the "other" were tangential effects of a policy of eugenics, which was a...

  20. Sympathy strike...would you do it??

    mazy replied to notachargenurse's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    As one of those families I am going to thank you for saying

  21. "You'll be hearing from my lawyer."

    mazy replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately, nowadays, that is something that actually WOULD scare

  22. Crashing and Burning

    mazy replied to WinterpegLPN's topic in General Nursing

    What I'm seeing, first, is that your work schedule sounds exhausting and difficult for anyone. Two 12-days and a 12-night makes it impossible to get any kind of a regular sleep schedule, which is only...

  23. Oh my gadd i'm so embarrassed. Please help me..

    mazy replied to willowRN's topic in General Nursing

    OK, here you go, a whole page of them:...

  24. Oh my gadd i'm so embarrassed. Please help me..

    mazy replied to willowRN's topic in General Nursing

    If it makes you feel any better I'd be willing to bet that by the time they got to the end of the hall they had forgotten all about you and your patient. Next time you'll be better prepared. I've done...

  25. S/O of 'just not that into you' - want feedback from other nurses as to what happened

    mazy replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    I once interviewed for a job at a facility that I had been set up with by a recruiter. I went in for the interview and sat down with the manager who went on for TWO hours about the job, herself, the...
