  1. "The Jesus Factor"

    What are you going to do, ask them if they'd like to hear about the Gospel of Jesus? I'm just trying to figure out how you're getting the conversation rolling. Do you mean you'll spread your word if...

  6. any advice on working a strike?

    Any nurse who wants to do strike work has to know that it's going to be a hot-button issue. If that's what the nurse wants to do, fine...but then he/she needs to have the spine for it. I care too...

    Don't go looking for lots of sympathy. You made your

  10. Why Do Nurses Allow Understaffing?

    You are an administrator. I admire your resolve to back your nurses, but you must know that you are only one person, and there are many other people who can influence a nurse's decision to leave. Not...
  11. Why Do Nurses Allow Understaffing?

    I would take those courses if you offered them, linda. I would like to hear them coming from a nurse who has been there, done

    I can totally understand this. I was "the wrong kind of Christian" and paid for it,
  15. "The Jesus Factor"

    It's offensive because you are presuming that person wants you to pray for him/her. And there are so many variations of belief even in Christianity, that what you may believe as a Christian may not be...
  16. "The Jesus Factor"

    Good thing I chose another BSN completion program. Somehow I didn't notice that when I applied there. Even though I'm a Christian, I would have a HUGE problem with that. HUGE. There was one occasion...
  17. "The Jesus Factor"

    It is very presumptuous to say to a pt. "I will pray for you" if the pt did not ask you to do so. Don't be so sure you wouldn't get into trouble; people of many faith backgrounds go to Catholic...

    I have to say that like llg, I am getting increasingly frightened by some of the responses I am

  20. "I'm an uncertified medical assistant"

    It's not my job (our nursing's job) to increase MA's self-esteem over their career choice by allowing them to commit fraud by passing themselves off as nurses. Be proud of what you've chosen to do and...
  21. "The Jesus Factor"

    This is a true incident: I was in the hospital and a "friendly visitor" from the chaplain's office came to my room. I didn't ask for the visit. This guy was w/c bound. He started "ministering" to me....
  22. Tell him to grow up. For goodness sake, four hours commuting...whose side is he on? Does he not see that beside the cost of commuting, there's a risk for you being on the road all that time? With...
  23. Heads up: NBC nightly news tonight

    Thank goodness they seem to have died off. I felt like I needed to mainline a liter of insulin after seeing one of those
  24. Heads up: NBC nightly news tonight

    That's true, you have to consider the audience. Most national network news is more like "McNews." You get little bites, kind of tasty, but not a lot of substance. If it was enough to cause Joe Sixpack...
  25. "The Jesus Factor"

    This nurse is clearly out of bounds. She is putting herself in the position of the Almighty, deciding if someone is "right' with God and seeming to know where that person is going to spend eternity....
