    Frustration with office staff

    In my district, unfortunately, there is no school nurse on every one of the 11 campuses. The one school nurse only works 3 days a week. So the office staff have to be trained. Although NO school...

    Teacher disciplining student in your office

    Oh, that would have crossed the line with me. That's really not how we help kids remember to go to the bathroom. I completely understand the frustration of this kind of incident but there are...

    Vent about teachers (as much as I love them)

    Oh yeah, amazing how many educated folks are like that. That would be me as well. I'm a

    Jacob Rockstar-RN Psych Nurse Action Figure

    Good for Farawyn for pulling some of the school nurses away from their forum! Even though retired from school nursing for a whole 2 months now, I still hang around with you all. Love the comic...

    Can you recommend a medication?

    Same here. Our hospice docs appreciate it. I was going to ask you that. I don't think you did anything in wrong in asking about a

    Crusty Old Bat Society

    I became a nurse about 18 years ago. So I worked with my fair share of COB's is their 60's and one in her 70's who had great stories to tell about our hospital. Back then, the nurses pretty much...
  9. I agree. If this hinges on them helping you financially then you simply have to break away and determine your own future. That means looking for scholarships and taking out school loans. And if you...

    I'm baaaaaack!

    Great news and welcome back. You have a full plate there with all those kiddos and thank you so much for giving them a home! I retired from school nursing about a month or so ago. Very grateful...

    Farawyn!

    Here's what's funny . . . Farawyn is NOT the OP for that thread so how did her avatar get there?? The internet is weird. I don't understand

    Capturing charges is main function of EMR

    Wow!

    Capturing charges is main function of EMR

    Yup. Exactly! As hospice, I'm having the same issue. I hate computer charting with a purple passion. And that's all I'll say about

    What classes did you take with A&P?

    Where I live, Anatomy and Physiology were separate year-long classes. As was Microbiology. I honestly don't remember how many other classes I took; one was a psychology class. And a P.E.

    teenagers and pot

    I agree. You have no idea Pinay how many people here on AN have lost friends or family due to a drunk driver. I'm one of them. The first was a very good friend way back in the 1980's who was...

    A sobering story-------

    Thanks for that. As elkpark mentioned, a much better representation of the facts and not emotion. Although, this is an emotional issue as well. I'd really like to have seen the protocol for giving...

    A sobering story-------

    I missed that part. Every blog has a little blurb about the blogger. (Try to say that 10 times fast). Oh and she had "rootless" feet. I agree with your concerns regarding medical mistakes. But I...

    Accused of sleeping

    I was thinking the same thing. Many times people don't realize how long they've had their eyes shut. One particular nurse stands out. And this would happen shortly after rounding on our patients...

    Yes! Inhaled those crumbs! I cut up grapes as well. And we don't eat hot dogs but if we did, we'd cut them into little pieces for kids. That warning went through all the schools here after that...

    salt water and baking soda

    I'm one of those scaredy-cat moms who didn't give her kids Brach's candy or cough drops. But my kids did choke on food. Once on a saltine cracker. Another time it was a piece of meat and even...
