    I love it when...

    Hygiene Queen replied to Tait's topic in General Nursing

    That cracks me up. I've actually had pts get mad at me, kick me out of the room... I wait about 5 minutes, come back cheery as a daffodil in spring. They think I'm the "good nurse" coming to save...

    Any nurses out there still wearing a cap?

    Hygiene Queen replied to abbaking's topic in General Nursing

    The last time I saw a nurse who wore a cap was about two years ago. I was behind her in line at the store. She had on a white polyester uniform dress (a little yellow!) and, while the cap was not...

    What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    Hygiene Queen replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    While this isn't a ghost story, it is something I'd like to point out. Working in Psych will, on occasion, almost make one wonder if there isn't truly something in the whole "demonic possession"...

    Hygiene Queen replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    Clinicals

    Hygiene Queen replied to MichaelCNA's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Do you recommend becoming a nurse?

    Hygiene Queen replied to BradleyRN's topic in General Nursing

    Male Chest Hair and Scrub Tops

    Hygiene Queen replied to Thunderwolf's topic in General Nursing

    Can Anyone Tell Me WHY.......

    Hygiene Queen replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    Why does the last X-LG diaper in the house always rip in the process of putting it on? Why do the Geri-chairs roll worse than a Kmart shopping cart? Why can't old ladies tear off a sheet of toilet...

    Hygiene Queen replied to pielęgniarka's topic in General Nursing
