    Cherybaby replied to tatara's topic in General Nursing

    Cherybaby replied to rninmi's topic in Nurses Recovery

  9. FDA Approves New Swine Flu Vaccine

    Cherybaby replied to Cherybaby's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I don't know why they moved this post to this forum. I had it under world news at allnurses central because it is something that everyone should be aware of. Some people do not know this forum...

  10. Apparently a Single Jab Will Do Ya

    Cherybaby replied to indigo girl's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Do we know what that time period is? Apparently, my pregnant daughters' ob/gyn doesn't know anything about it. It's frustrating that these docs aren't well enough informed about the virus let alone...

  11. Apparently a Single Jab Will Do Ya

    Cherybaby replied to indigo girl's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Just wondering...if you get a regular flu shot...can you also get the H1N1 shot as well? Is it contraindicated? I can't find anything about it

  12. Evidence of swine flu risk to pregnant women rises

    Cherybaby replied to indigo girl's topic in Disaster Preparation

  13. IPN vs. BON?

    Cherybaby posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    I went for my IPN evaluation yesterday. It wasn't nearly as scary or as intimidating as I thought it would be. There was a doctor there, a psychiatrist, who told me she was a former addict as well....

  15. Swine Flu, Vaccinations and Pregnancy

    Cherybaby replied to Cherybaby's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yes. I looked up some...but there is nothing showing possible adverse outcomes. I am thinking that they could not have had trial studies on pregnant women and the potential for damage to the...

  16. No time off for new dad!!

    Cherybaby replied to NursingStudent5548's topic in General Nursing

    Well, it seems you have answered all of your own questions. You said he has never been written up. In the next few sentences you show that he HAS been written up a number of times for infractions no...

  17. Gotta question

    Cherybaby replied to ms. papa RN AGAIN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I didn't necessarily see this as someone trying to rain on your parade. Someone was just giving you another point of view. People who are familiar with recovery know that relapse rates are VERY high...

  18. I have wanted to be a nurse for years

    Cherybaby replied to dreamin2bnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Honey...relax! You are still a young one with all the time in the world. I walked into the world of nursing as an MA at the age of 33 and finally got my nursing license when I turned 40! You have...

  19. No time off for new dad!!

    Cherybaby replied to NursingStudent5548's topic in General Nursing

    I have to agree with applescruffette's reply. I feel like we aren't getting a full story here or if so, it is a very slanted viewpoint. There is no reason under the sun why your boyfriend should...

    Cherybaby replied to JamesCohen's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    A lot of other hospitals are going to the color coded system. Supposedly, this is to help patients differentiate who the nurses are as opposed to other staff, like techs and housekeeping, etc....

  21. I dont care what part of the United States you live in!!!

    Cherybaby replied to SDA3694's topic in General Nursing

    Unless you are willing to work LTC, I would suggest staying away from Central Florida too. We are completely on lockdown over here when it comes to hiring even experienced nurses. This is...

  22. Very Upset And It's Affecting My Marriage

    Cherybaby replied to jurneesma's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have to be honest here. I find it amusing that you state that "we as nurses are suppossed [sic] to provide compassionate care to our patients..." yet you cannot find it in your heart to find...

  23. Staff acting like mean girls what do you do

    Cherybaby replied to amiconfused's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately, you are going to come across this a lot. You need to have a thick skin and let their cliquish ways roll off your back. Shrug it off. Eventually, they will see that they have no...
