  1. Where to live in Cincinnati??

    NurseyTee replied to KatrinaPM's topic in Ohio Nursing

  2. Honestly, Am I too old to become a nurse?

    NurseyTee replied to Natbail's topic in General Nursing

  3. Honestly, Am I too old to become a nurse?

    NurseyTee replied to Natbail's topic in General Nursing

    As others have stated in their comments, the physical aspect of nursing and the work as a CNA is labor intensive. I know as a Nurse I can spend my whole 12 hour shift on my feet and on the go. Some...

    NurseyTee replied to Natbail's topic in General Nursing

  9. Patches left in public

    NurseyTee replied to amgo24's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I understand this premise, although I do think the nurse that told the nurse on duty did the right thing by bringing it to her attention. I wouldn't, however make a federal case out of it. Yeah, they...

    NurseyTee replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a nurse already. I'm an LPN and work in LTC on the weekends and go to school through the week. I have most of my pre-req's done. So I'm pretty happy about that. I love being a nurse and have...

  15. Interview for LCF! What to expect?

    NurseyTee replied to shopandmakeup's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I just went through this and don't be nervous although that is easier said than done. You might want to take some questions yourself for them. Remember that they are in need of you and your services...

  17. Why did you take up nursing? What's your story?

    NurseyTee replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

  18. Why did you take up nursing? What's your story?

    NurseyTee replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    I knew from the time I was very, very young that I wanted to be a nurse. I can't tell you why, except I knew I wanted to take care of people. Maybe it was because my mother was very ill from the...

  20. Mishaps in nursing school

    NurseyTee replied to button2cute's topic in General Nursing

    I cannot imagine using 5 foleys for one procedure! I think she needs more practice. If the patient was female though, some have difficult anatomy to decipher. I would say get aquainted with where...

    NurseyTee replied to button2cute's topic in General Nursing

    One of the mishaps we had in nursing school was during a med pass, not a good time for a big mistake, huh? Anyway, myself and two other students were on one cart for the med pass. We were to divide...

  22. stinking of cigarette smoke

    NurseyTee replied to sisterfaye's topic in General Nursing

    My husband's workplace did this about 15 yrs ago. No smoking anywhere on the premises not even during breaktime or lunch. If you're caught, you're fired; no second chances. They did offer every...
