    How that man can stand before people and lie is beyond me. Very sad statement that people give him any credit. At

    The film: Vaxxed.

    I'm sorry but the "big pharma" stuff is one thing that bugs us . . . big pharma doesn't make their money with vaccines. It would be better for big pharma to hide the vaccines in a bunker somewhere...
  5. That is what we learned the first 6 weeks into my nursing program - basic nursing skills. Taking VS was one important part and I had no idea how to take a BP. But we practiced on each other and I...

    The film: Vaxxed.

    Obviously when I'm discussing this with family members or patients, I'm respectful. But here on AN, we can come to vent about how frustrating it is to show people the science behind the safety and...

    What Can't You Live Without?

    A good mentor. Coffee and wine - at different times obviously. No study group for me - I can't study in a group. But to each their own. Exercise, definitely. I walked the track at the college...

    I've been following the story over the weekend. Now Wakefield is calling "censorship!". B.S. And yes, the anti-vaxxers are

    Clipping nails at nurse's station

    Oh yeah, I had one of those in nursing school. At the cusp of retirement but I'm glad I was taught by her. She was a stickler for doing your job correctly. Even down to how to put a pillow case on...

    One hour before and one hour after

    When I first started working as a nurse, part of our orientation was to work in the LTC and Dementia Unit. This was to have back-up for nurses who worked there full time and had to call out for some...
  13. Became a nurse at 40 with no health care experience and didn't take a CNA class. I've lived to tell the tale. Unless a program requires it, I see no need, personally. Any new job is going to...

    Clipping nails at nurse's station

    I agree with the "disgusting" comments. Just not appropriate at the nurses station. My sis-in-law is a flight attendant . . . she tells the craziest stories of passengers being inappropriate. One is...

    Student doesn't eat and I'm the person to fix it!

    Blech . . . that makes me sick as well. That and that blob of fat on prime rib that people eat too. We really have to make sure we look at the whole picture and get a medical/psychological screening...

    The hamster is loose.

    I just discovered Doc McStuffins while perusing The Disney Channel when my 3 year old grandson-to-be was here. He of course preferred Mickey Mouse. I've been out of that loop for awhile since my...

    C'Mon Now!

    Our school district chose to take the "snow day" that never happened this year and take today off. Next week is Easter Break. Spidey is happy to get a snow day when the sun is shining and the grass...

  22. That is what I did with these parents; every year. One time the kiddo had an inhaler in his backpack and we just kept it at school. Don't tell. I warned the new nurse about this family - I'm...

  24. Wow, I had the same set of parents. Their son came in at least twice a week with an asthma attack. They refused to bring an inhaler. We called 911. They were not happy about that and insisted on a...

    Check out NIMH resources. Lots of research info there. And what about a possible link between the increase in broken homes, drug abuse, etc.? Maybe the kids are just shellshocked by their home...
