    Do your staff desert the floor during a potluck?

    Sounds like there was a little joy in the workplace.That's nice, I think.If we have a little party and more staff leave the floor than usual, then whoever is on the floor will just call someone back...

  6. Yes...The f-bomb truly was "The Queen Mother" of dirty words... Still is to me... But there are times where saying "fudge" doesn't quite convey the way I

    stressing- how do you pay for nursing school

    Can you work as a PCT or CNA in a facility that has tuition reimbursement?I did. I also went to a community college. I paid next to nothing and had no loans to pay back.I also had a job as an RN when...

    Nurse patient relationship

    Of course we think this.The question is "why?"Why do you think? Tells what you think and what you came up with, and we'll probably chime

    What is your clinical makeup routine :)

    Moisturizer, lipstick and a little nose powder.Anything else is not needed and the lipstick is for me.Eye makeup tends to look nasty after running around and there's usually no time to fuss.People...
  13. Actually, those things are not the "hard" things. If I could do only those things and get paid like a nurse, I'd be happy as a clam. Unfortunately, they tend to staff us poorly and the techs really...

    Bully?! Help,I need good comebacks!

    Just tell her straight out, "You will need to get the gown." I don't think right-then-and-there would be the best time to give the big talk about roles and her holding up work, but I would say that we...

    Funniest thing you've ever seen happen to a doctor

    That. Was. Funny!!!!!!! I actually laughed out loud on that. Again, I'm amazed how sitcom-like the real world can be. I have no story to tell now because there is no way I have any that funny....

    "Don't you find this degrading?"

    How about... "I have no problem with having to do this. However, I have a huge problem with not doing this and you getting a massive infection. That's not degrading, that's giving a s***!" Okay......
  18. Things are not always what they seem. I can only comment on Psych. It is still incredibly stressful. Nursing is stressful. Period. And where I work... I still do the "dirty work". You have a lot to...
  19. Find your texts books on Evolve and study from there.After I did that, I did so much better that I was mad I didn't do it sooner.I would learn from taking the end-of-chapter NCLEX-style questions and...

    Question regarding insulin administration

    I don't think the OP wanted to know if she should do it.She wanted to know if anyone ever heard of it.I have

    Were you "SMART" before Nursing School?!

    I really goofed off in high school. I graduated by the skin of my teeth. But I was not stupid. I just really really hated high school and was miserable. I barely held on in nursing school. When life...

    Nursing teachers being biased?

    That sounds much more reasonable than the "playing favorites" theory. I understand the OP's frustration (we've all endured the unholy "urgent-email-that-never-got-answered", but to think it's because...

    really??? (sigh)

    I could never be a role model! No one could ever achieve my level of supreme righteousness and god-like perfection . It would just be so so
  24. I know claiming to have diarrhea and vomiting (that you always conveniently "flush" before we can see it) seemed like a good attention-grabber... but now you are on isolation. We have a nasty bug...

    Dumb things new nurses do....

    Was it my mom and her boyfriend? My boyfriend is older than my mother's! Thanks okay, though... everybody's happy! Anyhoo... I once worked all morning with a pt, the floor nurses, my instructor, the...
