  1. Nurses Did Not Sign Up for This

    Guest219794 replied to NurseintheMtns's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I signed up for this. I am an ER nurse. This is an

  2. Paying People To Do Meaningless Online ED

    Guest219794 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    We always get paid for this horsecrap. It is not education- it is basically liability control for the hospital. If you screw something up, and it was covered, they can claim due diligence....

  3. Learn the COVID facts from the CDC

    Guest219794 replied to Bluefamily's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That would be awesome. Seems unlikely for this to actually be prosecuted, but it is great that lisencing agencies are out there protecting our credibility. The fact that this had to actually...

  4. If You Quit Your Job Rather than Get a Vaccine, What is Your Specialty?

    Guest219794 replied to ClaraRedheart's topic in Disaster Preparation

    In healthcare, as in the rest of society, the higher one's education, the more likely they are to be vaccinated. Particularly if that education is science based. In the hospital, the docs have...

  5. I'm Done

    Guest219794 replied to PMFB-RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I am not sure you are disagreeing about anything other than terminology. "Shortage" implies basically an imbalance in supply and demand. Demand is certainly high, and supply is low. So, yes, a...

  6. Trendelenburg Position

    Guest219794 replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    The position causes certain physiologic changes- like making an external jugular engorge. It just doesn't do what people, for years, (some currently) thought it did, which as to increase perfusion of...

  7. Trendelenburg Position

    Guest219794 replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    Trendelenburg for hypotension is often used as an example of a persistent nursing myth. It was considered state of the art in the late 1800's, and has had no evidence to base its practice since...

  8. If You Quit Your Job Rather than Get a Vaccine, What is Your Specialty?

    Guest219794 replied to ClaraRedheart's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I suspect you will only get a few replies here. I think the anecdotal reports far overshadow the actual numbers. I also think that nursing sucks so bad right now, that there are fence sitters...

  9. COVID Forever Changed Our Society

    Guest219794 replied to Yvonne Hosey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    As an expert in the field, I wonder if you could give an estimate of the percentage of vaccine hesitant nurses with medical based

  10. Is it wrong to ask for a raise?

    Guest219794 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    I skipped the OP, as well as all the replies. Gonna answer based on the thread title.

  11. U/s IV same arm as PICC

    Guest219794 replied to Urgirlconnie2014's topic in General Nursing

    I am not a PICC nurse, but if the existing PIV is in the way of a PICC, the PICC team can pull out the

  12. Changing the Conversation about COVID to Get More People Vaccinated

    Guest219794 replied to LeChele Mack's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I also feel that my freedom has been curtailed. I cannot travel where I want, or do some of the acctivities I love. And while my body autonomy seems currently intact, it will be a hell of a lot...

    Guest219794 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I don't know many. The one I do says that she is shocked that this attitude is not uncommon with her

  14. Imagine If You Will...

    Guest219794 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If I read this correctly, you have a legitimate medical exemption, and are allowed to continue working. It seems to me that in a state like Missouri, it would be newsworthy if those with medical...

  15. Imagine If You Will...

    Guest219794 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It was in direct response to a quesion about exsmptions for medical issues. As far as 5 leaving one unit- I think that there are nursing specialties with different takes on vaccinations. Not as...

  16. Imagine If You Will...

    Guest219794 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There were 5 nurses in one unit who all had legitimate medical reasons to not get vaccinated? That is a pretty wild statistical

  17. Vaccination Mandating

    Guest219794 replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The term I was looking for is belief echoes. The subject got a lot of focus in the past several years, as knowedeable, educated people started trying to wrap their minds aroud how such a large...

  18. Vaccination Mandating

    Guest219794 replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    For the most part, the arguments presented are so intelectually weak, they defy any kind of meaningful interaction. Sure, I could go with sciencedude on this. If he makes it into and through...

  19. Vaccination Mandating

    Guest219794 replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    You are arguing based on science. But, you are arguing against a political philosophy. Great that you take the time to debunk didinformation, but don't expect much. It's like telling somebody...

  20. One Patient at a Time

    Guest219794 replied to Sara R's topic in Disaster Preparation

    While I agree with your general premise, I don't think it applies universally. A patient doesn't have the right to peruse my medical record. "Where is that line? Will they ask about HIV or Hep B...

  21. How much more can we expect them to give?

    Guest219794 replied to 2BS Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Actually, "we" can not see it. "We" get our news from FOX, OAN, and various algorithm driven online sources. When "we"do this, we become unable to see the truth, and misinterpret

  22. What is the pathophysiology? SPO2 34%

    Guest219794 replied to Guest219794's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yup. Was hoping to follow up on ABG, outcome, etc. Unfortunately, I sarted my day with 3 boarded patients I am not quailfied to care for. Before I was done getting report, I picked up an...

    Guest219794 posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    Walkie talkie, good waveform. Real deal 34%. Anybody understand the pathophysiology

    Guest219794 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Her beliefs are as valid as plenty of religious beliefs. But, if she is willng to move, she could find a place that share this new religion. But, apparently it is more important tot he school...

  25. What is the pathophysiology? SPO2 34%

    Guest219794 replied to Guest219794's topic in Disaster Preparation
