  1. "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    FlyingScot replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    In some religions it is considered disrespectful to write God's name in any form. I don't know if it's tradition or Judaic law but the OP is an observant Jew and it is a common practice for them. She...

  2. Heparin Flush Question

    FlyingScot replied to rbscc's topic in Patient Medications

    Not in the US you don't. As far as I know flushing peripheral IVs with Heparin has not been our practice for

  3. "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    FlyingScot replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    OCN I think you misread my comment. I totally agree with you. I was responding to the person who said that the prayers of multiple people are superior to the prayer of one person. Which I think is...

  4. "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    FlyingScot replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I understand that sometimes the answer is no but I don't believe for a second that if more people than that mother had prayed God would have weighed the prayer

    FlyingScot replied to tjnkjn99's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    10fr Andersen. Best tubes I have ever worked with. Pliable and

  7. "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    FlyingScot replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Sorry, while I agree with you on some points you completely lost me there. Completely. You are putting limitations and conditions on God's love for His children. There is no superior prayer, only...

  13. IV starts in nursing schools

    FlyingScot replied to DaynaPierceMorgan's topic in General Nursing

    I don't get the "liability" part or the "no students" part. A new RN with no experience is just as likely to mess up as a student. What's the difference between a student and a new grad? There isn't a...

  14. "Please pray for me to pass"...?

    FlyingScot replied to RNsRWe's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    It's like sports teams praying for a win before the game. Never really understood that. How exactly is God going to pick? Does he just go for the team with the better uniforms or the perkiest...

  15. How do you treat your nursing students?

    FlyingScot replied to perfexion's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Are these students in clinical?!!! I may be wrong but I don't think the purpose of having students is for them to do the things you don't have time to do. They need to be taught the big picture of...

  16. Cultural Diversity and Tattoos

    FlyingScot replied to OwlieO.O's topic in General Students

    Unless you are a member of a caucasian tribe/clan/family group/religion that historically tatoos they are NOT a part of your culture they are a part of your lifestyle. There is a

    FlyingScot replied to Joe V's topic in News, Announcements

    Not to appear like I'm an idiot and perseverate on this subject but for me the app never had a quote button. And just for kicks I removed it from my phone and re-installed it and it still works the...

    FlyingScot replied to Joe V's topic in News, Announcements

    I don't understand what the quote problem is. I never had a quote button on my phone or iPad. All I have to do is tap the post I want to quote and it brings up a blue bar allowing me to quote, thank,...

  22. Night Shift Dulls your brain

    FlyingScot replied to Emergent's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I worked nights as a new nurse and did okay with them. Tried them again in my 40s with two decades of experience under my belt. Realized they were killing my brain one day when I couldn't remember how...

  23. Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    FlyingScot replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I didn't read anywhere that she went to crowded public places or did anything to put other people at risk. She even voiced that she would refrain from doing so. If her boyfriend wanted to stay with...

  24. Is your hospital in the Arctic Zone?

    FlyingScot replied to Joe V's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I adjust the thermostat for the comfort of the patients not the staff and believe me I hear about it. Really is 72 degrees that bloody

  25. Are there schools for CFRN certifications?

    FlyingScot replied to KG MSN RN CCRN CEN's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    That isn't entirely true. Case Western University in Ohio has a masters program for ACNP in flight nursing. Their nursing programs are highly respected. That being said, the other information is...
