  1. Abuse

    iheartyou replied to BellaTerra's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I would immediately assume care for the patient, whether anyone else liked it or not. Then I would document every single thing that occured. Will you still have a job? Who cares. You don't need...

  3. Could I be in trouble? (New nurse)

    iheartyou replied to megananne7's topic in General Nursing

    First off, don't worry. You sound like you are learning at the right pace; even us older nurses NEVER stop learning. This is one of those experiences that you will always remember, and therefore YOU...

  4. Facebook Comments About Patient

    iheartyou replied to trail_hiker's topic in General Nursing

    While I agree that the facebook descriptions probably did go too far in such a small town, especially if she also lists on her page where she works, etc.; I do not agree that the above posts were in...

  8. Pot Smoking and Nursing

    iheartyou replied to MrsNurseCA's topic in General Nursing

    John Boy 2002, I agree with you 100% that it IS money related. Maryjane does NOT lead to harder drugs, it does NOT cause violence like other drugs, and is VERY, VERY, VERY useful for alot of...

  10. Pot Smoking and Nursing

    iheartyou replied to MrsNurseCA's topic in General Nursing

    Laws are still laws whether someone is on vacation or not. Any nurse knows what is at stake and it would be ridiculous to take such a

  11. Pot Smoking and Nursing

    iheartyou replied to MrsNurseCA's topic in General Nursing

    The difference is that pot is illegal and alcoohol is not. Your right, it's not anyone's business what people do on their days off; but if they get caught doing something illegal, why are you...

    Agreed

  13. Why my patient quit nursing...

    iheartyou replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree it is insane that they say a patient has the right to fall. They are so afraid of being accused of unlawful restraint that they go to extremes to prove that there is no restraining occuring...

  15. Why my patient quit nursing...

    iheartyou replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, documentation is very, very, very important. But when it becomes more important to the powers that be than the actual patients, we get pretty upset about it documenting the same things over and...

  16. Why Do Nurses Allow Understaffing?

    iheartyou replied to RNfaster's topic in General Nursing

    It's not a question of nurses "allowing" anything. It's about being there to do your best to cover, even when there are not enough of us. And for alot of people, it's about a paycheck. Not a...

  17. "The Jesus Factor"

    iheartyou replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Do you think it is unethical then to pray with a dying patient when they ask you to? I don't think there is anything wrong with that. You are providing them much needed comfort that they are asking...

  18. No Child Carseat = Child Endangerment = Call to Police?

    iheartyou replied to S.T.A.C.E.Y's topic in General Nursing

    I understand how it feels to be on both sides of this debate. My youngest was houdini and could always figure his way out of the seat. If anyone else was in the car with us, they could buckle him...

  19. Why my patient quit nursing...

    iheartyou replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I was one of those nurses who thought I would never experience burnout. I loved my job, my career, for over 10 years. I loved going to work. But something has changed inside me within the last few...
