Why do you feel like you want to be a nurse of some sorts? That's a very strange way of putting it. You've posted twice on this, it's really hard to get a sense of the kind of information that you are looking for. Yes, LPN/LVNs have to do all sorts o...

I worked with a dr. who, when dealing with particularly nasty and abusive family members, would write an order that they couldn't come back to the facility for 24 hours. If they came back and acted up again, he would write another order. If they viol...

I'm sorry this is happening to you. I suggest starting with the Florida BON for guidelines regarding the patient abandonment question. Also, I suggest you check the federal department or labor website for information about the laws governing work hou...

Did you look at the title of the thread? Help with physiologic diagnosis for genital herpes

So are chicken pox and shingles. I'm not sure what your point is. The OP is working on a project about genital herpes.

As CT Pixie pointed out, sexual functioning is one of the core basic needs that must be met per Maslow's hierarchy of needs, so that would be a psychsoc dx, which is what Pixie was pointing out. So I'm not sure why you feel the need to correct her. D...

I'm sorry but I had a really hard time making it through your post. Please edit in some paragraphs. But from what I'm seeing it sounds like you are dealing with some very difficult emotions because of your health situation and you are also experienci...

Well. I can kind of relate to this post. I'm an experienced nurse and I've had a month that tops just about any bad work experience that I can remember in recent history. I love being a nurse but there are times when I wonder how I'm going to keep do...

Holy mother of cats. You do realize that this is a public forum with 500,000+ members, not all of whom are nurses, and some of whom are trolls, perverts, nutcases, and phishers trying to sell penis enhancement products. This forum is also easily acce...

Isn't that the guy who just got a job and is now complaining about his job title? He still hasn't gotten his RN license. I have long wondered what would happen if he started working and I can see he will continue to be even more insufferable. Is MacD...

OK. I'm back to work today. Gripe, gripe, grumble, mumble, grumble.

What I think is that you need to get off this site and stop spending all your time complaining about this "injustice" stop coming up with new ways to justify your behavior stop trying to prove how wrong this is stop comparing yourself to victims ...

In this post you have complained about old nurses vs. new nurses, experienced older nurses vs. experienced younger nurses, new grads vs. newer nurses, new grads vs. new grads, and new grads vs. experienced nurses, and you've thrown in some sliced bre...

wait. is this a pregnancy test?

Welcome to the club! I can say that cause I just went silver the other day. All because of mockery.

Oh gawd. I'm never going to get off this computer.

Well, we do stick sharp objects into people. But more importantly, if you're a zombie, do you eat your young?

The red flag is not the question of bullying, it is the issue that it has become such a problem that the NM is laying out a zero tolerance policy in an interview with no real specific information about what that entails. I would much rather work with...

Tricks such as cheating.........which has been known to happen. At any rate, what I believe the OP is stating, is that she wrote a letter stating that she thought she had passed, but she didn't and so they responded by telling her she could take the ...

I'll be interested to see where this goes. I think I'm going to get a diabetic coma in a glass and some crispy fomite fries and a flame-broiled side of nurse on a bun, and sit back and see.

Well, I ended up doing that. At this point I think I'm going to set up a perma-link to your profile, as you seem to land in the most interesting and bizarre parts of this site.

I really hope that when Pearson Vue receives your letter about this "trick" you were trying to do on their site, that they do not decide to investigate what other "tricks" you have been up to with the test.

I would like to bring my cats.

Really? That would be really cool. Point me there! Oh I suppose I could use the search function, but why on earth would I do that?

A lot of burning imagery in this post. Are you steamed?
