    Moved mom out of her house today!

    Yeah, sometimes parents tear up their parent card. It really is ok to not stick around to be abused anymore. In fact, people should walk away much

    Moved mom out of her house today!

    I had a restraining order against my mom before her dementia became clear. She was dangerous to my family. She started out being a good mom but choices she made later caused her to not do a good...

    My favorite pie! Every Summer my grandma would make it for my birthday. Miss her. I think you are the winner! So far . . . Even though it is hard to compete with dogs and turkey

    How many residents does it take to start an IV?

    Interns learn to do this kind of stuff. Draw labs, start IV's, etc. Not sure why this thread made it on to

    Narcan for School Nurses?

    Well, for me . . . obviously . . . after a couple of posts here and a history of complaining about it . . . Personlly, I am uncomfortable with schools becoming mini-medical clinics without medical...

    Full time working moms - how do you manage it?

    I agree here. I'd stay with the current schedule. I've raised 3 kids to adulthood and yes, they need you all the time/at all ages. But the teen years can be troubling if they don't feel supported....

    Moved mom out of her house today!

    Your post tugged at my heart. My mom was the same way and with-it enough to know we were placing her in "the looney bin". She was furious and yes, violent. For awhile after placement locally, they...
  14. I think a good manager can easily adapt by doing many of the things NurseStorm mentioned. A good manager is a good manager. Period. I've had a few of those. Very
  15. Oh man, you got there first! It is kinda early here but I'm off hospice call so . . . :) Interesting little thread here. I do agree that hospice and public health are linked in a way. However, I...

    Narcan for School Nurses?

    Yes! Call 911. I just don't see how these medical mandates can work on every campus in America. Until there is enough money (which there never will be) . . . how can school districts run...

    Secret to getting an L&D position

    Excellent advice missamellisy! We are also hurting for L&D nurses. In a rural setting, you do everything. I worked med-surg, L&D, Post-Partum, baby nurse for cesareans, outpatient, wound...

    Yes, I think you are correct young

    Narcan for School Nurses?

    You make a good point but it is so funny that you are in a rural district and so was I. Do you have full time medical staff? Nurses? Aides? A physician who oversees it all? Because we do not....

    teenagers and pot

    What are people thinking? ? ? "It would be safer for teenagers to drink in the home rather than drive around looking for a spot to drink". Yeah . .. that's the ticket. How about round up all those...

    Narcan for School Nurses?

    I know NASN didn't legislate it; I'm a member. Not sure where you got that. I was talking about NASN supporting it and the reasons. The laws in California mandate ALL districts although if you...

    Narcan for School Nurses?

    Interesting that NASN came out in favor but the agenda there is to get a school nurse in every school so the more medical things that are mandated, the more the schools will feel the pressure and will...

    EMS Radio Reports

    Small rural hospital. Four beds in the ER proper; one in the Triage room. The radio is in the ER next to the desk where the doc sits. The (only) ER MICN nurse answers the radio and gives orders;...
