  5. Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Pretty hard to change 19 years of teaching and habit. Takes a whole shift in thinking. That usually comes when you leave and live on your own. Many Hispanics do not leave the family, so she is still...

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Article says no public transportation. They are living in subsidized housing so it is most likely in an area with a lot of that, which IS a ghetto. We now jobs are in more demand and less supply...

  7. Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Maybe not, when I lived in Indiana we didn't have a bus service. Unless you lived in Indy and some of those places got a little hairy. Public transportation here in DC is also lacking. It also pretty...

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Nice try. :) I'm in a good place tonight so I will forgive you for baiting... I'm the liberal here. I am not the one picking on people's social or economic classes or their weight... By the way, when...

  13. Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Maybe they are obese because the food you can afford on a small budget is NOT the healthy food. The link between poverty and unhealthy food is well established. Maybe they can't get a job. I took my...

  14. Nursing Supervisor escorted two druggie nurses off hospital grounds last month

    Atheos replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I am no expert so this is just my opinion. I don't think the answer is in which job or specialty. I don't think you will find stats for that. I think the question is which people are susceptible to...

  15. Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Please don't tell me you are denying their 'struggle' because they are obese. **ROLL EYES WITH DISGUST** Just when I think maybe I came on too hard you go ahead and confirm my original

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

  19. Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Atheos replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I didn't pronounce anything over. I just stated that the overwhelming evidence leans in favor of UHC. Of course, other people from other places don't like it, so it must be bad. Everyone will whine...

    Yes, but if you have a heart attack and then your husband get's low blood sugar and passes out while driving and dies and then your son, while in the car has horribly broken legs and requires longterm...

  21. Nurse fired for calling police

    Atheos replied to Runman1914's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, they could have you arrested. Threatening to do violence is assault. You could try to complain it was because the nurse did x, y and z but it will not make a difference. They ingredient in...

  22. Nurse fired for calling police

    Atheos replied to Runman1914's topic in General Nursing

  23. CNA as a NURSING SUPERVISOR?

    Atheos replied to militarymom06's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I did not mean they did not take classes. I mean they did not learn. Leadership and management skills are not learned in the classroom. They are learned by practice. That's why college grads get entry...

  24. Learn To Say It Correctly!!

    Atheos replied to SheriLynnRN's topic in General Nursing

  25. Has your supervisor ever told you to go to work when you were throwing up?

    Atheos replied to Amethyst Veralyn's topic in General Nursing

    We get people in a snow storm. If it's a crazy blizzard we would call people in before it happened. When I lived in Indiana, the police came and got me one time. When I am staffing my concern is the...
