  2. Refraining from judging

    cmonkey replied to cmonkey's topic in General Nursing

  4. Refraining from judging

    cmonkey replied to cmonkey's topic in General Nursing

    In her defense, I think she shared because I asked about PH nursing. It's not something she just volunteered out of the blue. We also have a several-year relationship behind us. But my point was how...

  8. To Do: Over Summer Vacation

    cmonkey replied to Tara:)'s topic in General Students

    You just had to rub that in, didn't you? Though I was just in Belgium and brought back about 2 kilos of chocolate, it's not the same as good old See's. VERY GOOD, mind, but doesn't have the nostalgia...

  11. Depression and nursing?

    cmonkey replied to Allthatsparkles's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, if they ask. If they don't, no need to offer. But don't lie on applications or in interviews. Bad juju. If you take meds, though, put those all down because if they do a screen and something you...

    cmonkey replied to prospect's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I forgot re school physical: are they EVER conducted by the school? Mine has to be by a doc. Either way, HIPPA would apply to the physical. Legally, at least, discussing the findings of the exam is...

    cmonkey replied to prospect's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think maybe you're borrowing trouble (and as I hold an advanced degree in trouble studies, I feel qualified to say so. I do not, however, have a sanity certificate. WANT.). Yes. There are bigots....

    cmonkey replied to Emile's topic in General Nursing

    That is some straight-up gorgeous hair. FWIW from a white girl, I think natural is fantastic and it always makes me happy to see women who choose it. Own it! There's a little girl who is in a bunch...

    cmonkey replied to JBMmom's topic in General Students

  23. Sharing notes thread?

    cmonkey replied to cmonkey's topic in General Students

    I don't think they can only be helpful if they're from one's own specific school. In fact, I think they can be *more* helpful if they aren't. There is the danger, of course, of spending time studying...
