She half butt denied being sexually active. But I knew she was because she didn't argue about it very strongly, and well, I know my daughter! I also believe it was a control thing.

I was in a very similiar situation with my then 15 year old daughter years ago. She WAS sexually active and I told her that she will no longer be allowed to date if she didn't get on birth control. When she spoke with the Dr, she was told that she d...

I feel like it is a violation of OUR privacy. At our facility, we have first and last name as well, but I covered my last name with a sticker. Nobody has said anything yet.

There is no such thing as "just a CNA"! Other than that statement, I agree with everything you said! MissLo

I swear. I don't get it either.

We still have a smoking room INSIDE of ours, conveniently located on the oncology floor. I wish we would go smoke free. MissLo

How awesome that you are doing that. Your wife is one lucky lady to have such a thoughtful and creative husband! Good luck with your party planning.

Dear Boss, When you hired me, you hired me to provide top notch patient care. I do that. I love that. I love every aspect of my job. There is nothing more fulfilling to me than taking care of those in their last days. With that said, I challenge you ...

Sure. If it helps with patient care go for it

The kitchen staff does not trump the nurses, or the aides. I have went around and around with them on this issue and I will persist. They can complain all they want, but for me, the complaints fall upon deaf ears. I just don't care. My primary concer...

I agree with BradleyRN. The patient didn't CHOOSE to be in that situation, however, the CNA CHOSE her/his job. What do people think they are getting into when they become a CNA? And to complain in front of the patient is totally unacceptable. That is...

What can you tell me about working in medsurg? I am not a nurse YET but am so curious about the different units and my impatient mind wont let me rest until I learn about them. Out of sheer boredom and as a much cooler distraction from studying for ...

Hm, I wonder if I should try to pick up a position in med/surg as a CNA. Just to "see" what it is like. I wouldn't be able to leave my hospice job though, I love it too much. Any thoughts? Would being an aide on that floor be beneficial? MissLo

I am an awesome CNA. I am very proud of myself and feel that all of the nurses I work with are lucky to have me. The patients I take care of are lucky to have me. Am I bragging? You betcha! What has helped me to become nurse aid-extaordinair? Allnurs...

When I was getting Depo shots, they were giving them to me in my abdomen. They alternated sides.

I sometimes ask for homework HELP on here, not answers, but help. We students learn alot from you nurses. You should be glad that we look up to you for help. Maybe not the answers, but for help. MissLo

One of the questions in our homework has me stumped. Before I enter the question I just want to say that I AM NOT asking for the answer, I just need help understanding it. Here goes: You are working with Hispanic parents of newborns and discussing th...

Chatsdale, I agree with you. I hate this class with a passion and I think that is why I am having a hard time doing this q/a sheet. Unfortunately, this is a requirement for the nursing program. MissLo

In the area of space, would you say that they are more touchy feely or stand offish? I have been looking in my book and online but I am not finding much in reference to space. MissLo

Thanks a million pshs! MissLo

Oh yes....she did. I work as a CNA for a small hospice and really love my job. For the most part, it is a wonderful place to work. Except for one RN that the CNA's and even some RN's have a hard time working with. Yesterday we had a resident that wa...

Kooku, I'm not really sure why. All employees have to provide proof of insurence to keep in files. MissLo

Oh and about the car insurance...I got a new car and didn't even think to give them a copy of my insurance. LOL TOO FUNNY!! MissLo

The meeting with my supervisor went well, actually it had nothing to do with what happened with Nurse Wonderful! It was about my car insurance!!! She got a note from HR saying my car insurance expired in July! Nothing was said to me about what happe...
