Hi kids, Because I am considering a traveling position in the near future, I have been applying with many companies, etc. One in particular wants me to sign a "pre-employment and disclosure release form". This sounds innocuous enough when just scratc...

In the last couple of days/weeks, I have been noticing some things on this website that troubles me. On more than just a few occasions, I have read whole threads, where there is a "discussion", or difference of opinion being expressed. I notice in s...

Okay, Earle58.... I am sorry if I mis-interpreted what you wrote....but... Why would you make a comment like that? Why would you say that"i don't think she has any experience and if she does,God pity her fearful and disoriented patients... ? What w...

Thank you Miranda, for your insight into those specifics I brought up... yes...it does shed a different light....in some ways.. But, you have to remember, this was a new nurse...and while she may or may not have approached the "seasoned ones" as gin...

ktwlpn....I did not claim to be "joking" as you stated.... I stated that it was sarcasm...If you are somehow trying to minimize what I am saying here, or trying to show me that I am somehow a hypocrite, fine...I said a sarcastic remark about someone ...

To KTWLPN: If you want to compare apples and oranges, well, okay... In the instance YOU quoted me speaking, and in it's context, we were talking on that thread about a nurse who was abusing patients and co-workers.....https://allnurses.com/forums/f8/...

You think calling someone a troll is exaggerating? Yes, this is an OLD thread, but the mentality of some of those same seasoned nurses still remains....because at the point of injury to the new nurse, no one was really held accountable, Tweety.... Th...

don'tcha just love it when people who have not worked at the bedside ever or in years get to make the rules for those of us who do??? If the rule is that they are concerned about contamination, ie a nurse who may have his/her hands in something patie...

Thank you to those who pointed out the very difference between expressing an opinion and those who used names, however they are meant, demeaning comments that included a person's brain formation, and demeaning one's background, ie education. I wasn't...

Oh I am soooo sorry for you.... My son gets these sometimes, and he even gets them so bad that he gets field cuts, or words will invert....he becomes disoriented and will sometimes not know familiarity....it goes away in an hours or so....he's been t...

And my final word: While I can appreciate that moderators cannot be omnipresent and omniscient, I don't think as adults, as supposed professionals, we should have to have a "hall monitor" to keep us in line! Clearly, calling someone a troll??? and re...

Tazzi, the POINT HERE ISN"T: the newbie's experience level the newbie's understanding of the other posters points... THE POINT IS THAT THE OTHER POSTERS REFERRED TO HER AS A TROLL, STATED THAT HER PATIENTS WERE FEARFUL (AS IF TO IMPLY THAT SHE IS SOM...

So....let me get this straight....the behaviour of calling a person a troll is excused because the poster said her opinion strongly??? This is EXACTLY what bugs me about this kind of stuff...it's like saying, "well, he hit me first!!" So therefore, ...

Specifically, for stevielynn: Page 7, 8, 11,19,21, It wasn't until the 22 page or so that there was ANY strong intervention by the moderator....which I find wrong... because, in my opinion, the minute someone refers to another nurse point blank as a ...

yeah, i see this happen all over the country. like when the unit specific scrub colors get picked....and they go with lavender and pink....what the heck are the guys supposed to wear??? it's so lame...pathetic....and demeaning....at least the morons ...

I think it IS innate....because those same people who are afraid, or ignorant, or were "rasied that way" had to have gotten it from SOMEWHERE....so where did it come from??? Where did the learning of the behaviour, or the misunderstanding, or the fea...

That's certainly true about preferring animal company sometimes....very few of them bite each other for no good reason....hehehe! Although, I used to have a horse that would reach around just as you would put your foot in the stirrup and take a big b...

When I took a job in another state,I landed square in the middle of a unit where I was the token "white girl"....believe me, prejudice isn't indigenous to dark skin/ gender/ sexual orientation/ gender/ or even age....that is why some of our Constitut...

Your NM said you were falsifying records because when you double bill, they have to account on their end where the money went that they paid you....you are collecting twice for the same "service" as it were....it would be like you going to a hairdres...

clinton was governor of arkansas during much of the 1980s when the state continued to run its prison blood program even as other states shut down such programs. two longtime clinton friends were closely involved in supervising the blood program at cu...

Incorrect, TEEITUPTOM. The incidents occured long after the HIV awareness was part and parcel of checking blood, checking sources. If it was all bologna as you say, then why did the Doctor who headed up the program, a CLINTON supporter, end up in jai...

HOw nice to be affirmed from someone on the outside looking in.....that makes my day!!

Here's a more global perspective of what other media outlets who investigated this situation had to say: http://prorev.com/blood.htm It's quite the eye opener.... I would never vote for someone who is married to a person like this....ever.

There's also a very interesting article on-line that is linked to the Clintons when Bill was govenor of Arkansas. It seems that an unscrupulous doctor who was head of the prison system hospitals at that time was using prisoners for obtaining blood pr...

UH...a little compassion here??? might be in order??? These poor parent and this little child have suffered immeasurablely.... If the parents want to seek their faith in God as their Source of strength and optimism right now, what's the big deal? Th...
