  1. What's your census?

    Angelica replied to angieRN's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Right now I have 7. I have never had more than 14, and that is rare. I get 3 dollars per hour on-call. My cell phone is provided by my

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    This is the second time you've brought this thread back from the dead. Both times you did so without actually responding to the original topic. It's a free country, I guess, but I have to ask --...

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    There is no connection. The stuffing was brought up as a humorous aside. Something to distract us from the dead horse we're

  9. standing orders

    Angelica replied to webblarsk's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Are the ABHR supps for nausea? We use something similar, except we use haldol, benztropine, reglan and decadron. What does the 'A' stand

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you, PamUK. I felt largely the same way when I read the post, but I didn't want the bother of constructing a lengthy response. Too lazy, perhaps. Besides I know it's not going to change...

  11. Offended by Prayer

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    Of course there are. There are logical Christians and illogical atheists. I just don't understand why anyone would be so vigorously against logic. Anyway, I think this thread has veered off course...

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    O.K....Now that I've reread your post I can see the sarcasm. I guess as an atheist it is too much to expect that my beliefs are respected. Forgive me for my

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    Why is it so critical to determine religious affiliation if you're just going to disregard

  16. Offended by Prayer

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with cicicross's post. It's O.K. in our society to be open about being religious (especially if you are the RIGHT religion). I find that I have to be VERY careful who I discuss my...

    Angelica replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    Tolerance is also being respectful of people who don't believe as you do, and not sharing your faith with them if they make it clear they don't want to hear

  18. Atheists attending funeral services

    Angelica posted a topic in General Nursing

    The thread asking atheists/agnostics whether they would be offended if someone prayed for them after their death made me wonder if any theists would be upset at the thought of an atheist attending...

  19. Atheists attending funeral services

    Angelica replied to Angelica's topic in General Nursing

    The nurses I work with are pretty religious. I'm definitely the token atheist. We all get along great, though. I have not been asked to pray with a pt/family. I do talk about God on occasion when...

  20. Does your hospice cover feeding pumps/nutrition...ever?

    Angelica replied to hospicenurse's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    We cover it in select circumstances. Most recently we had a trisomy 18 infant on a feeding pump. Our pts with feeding pumps are few and far between,

  21. Hospice On Call Compensation Structure

    Angelica replied to Katillac's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    We've been a little slow the last few months. I haven't gone over 8 pts since April. At one point this summer I had 2! That's a little TOO slow. I'm at 6 right now. Never had more than

    Angelica replied to katzrkool's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    My journey to Hospice was very similar to Momcats'. I was a rehab nurse for five months after graduating from school. Then I took a job with Hospice. They were pretty short-handed at the time and...
