    atheism religion and religious hospitals

    Spidey's mom replied to CalicoKitty's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I have a great rapport with my atheist friends. I don't shove anything down their throats. We have atheists on our hospice board. We have atheist patients. Our pastor used to be an atheist. My...

    What do you hate most about your job?

    Spidey's mom replied to PancakeSaturdays's topic in General Nursing

    I have subscribed to this website, kevinmd, for a long time. Came across this article that talks about EHR and the frustrations. Maybe it's time to go back to index cards for medical

    How would you react?

    Spidey's mom replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree with not responding in an email. Talk with your manager instead. But not in a whiny, complaining way. Just acknowledge the mistakes and ask for advice. Be professional. Don't lower...

    Spidey's mom replied to CalicoKitty's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    As a hospice nurse now, unfortunately, this is rampant in a parts of medical care. We have been trying for years to show people that hospice doesn't "kill you with morphine" and that Advanced...

    C'Mon Now!

    Spidey's mom replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    No I don't wear them in school. I was just responding to the t-shirt slogan saying flip flops are only for the pool!

    I like your ideas. I do have my own small garden but my mom-in-law and sis-in-law have a huge . . . and I mean huge . . . garden on the ranch. Also there are apple trees there. Plus, there are local...

    Can a meth dealer become a HIPAA Auditor?

    Spidey's mom replied to AdianA's topic in General Nursing

    Most companies do a background check on the folks they are interviewing for a job. That's just life nowadays. I'm pretty sure whoever hired the person you are talking about is aware of the...

    Hot dogs and ramen,summer budget

    Spidey's mom replied to jesserpie's topic in School

    I think, as others have stated, this is a husband problem. It is hard to budget when someone doesn't look at the budget. And just spends money willy-nilly. Maybe marriage counseling?

    1. Three passwords that have to change every 3 months. One to log into your work computer. Two to log into the program to chart. 2. Redundancy - a simple example is I have to chart height/weight...

    Spidey's mom replied to DEgalRN's topic in School

    Even though I'm "retired" from my job as school nurse (7 months now) I see kids all the time as we are a very small town. And I do get the waves and hugs from some of them. I was more attached to...

    Phones Are Down...

    Spidey's mom replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    I work in hospice too and I never call from my own cell phone. Although I've been told by the "techie" folks that there is a way to block my # from coming up on their phone. For emergency use, your...

    Client vs Patient

    Spidey's mom replied to srercg's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I learned as well. But still . . . they are my patients. I too hate the word client. When I have hospice patients in LTC I still say "patient" even though the LTC nurses say "resident"....

    Is it okay for RN to ask recovery patients not to swear?

    Spidey's mom replied to SweetieBeeSandy's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Personally, it was the way I was raised. I've mentioned before that my Grannie had a sign in her kitchen that said "Profanity is ignorance made audible". :) The older I've gotten, the more easy it...

    Spidey's mom replied to LadyFree28's topic in General Nursing

    I know people who do the same - I just couldn't do it personally. We have a heavy comforter on our bed in the winter and I can barely stand it. And we have a king-sized bed so no one touches me...
