    HELP 485 concerns

    I can't really site anything but I know at my HH office ideally the nurse who did the eval would sign the 485. If they (for some reason) were unable to the primary nurse would. In case this doesn't...

    New Nurse, am I doing enough??

    I agree with PP that it is completely normal. I am in my first year of a new role (NP) and I hold so much tension from the stress of needing to know so much. It's slowly getting better and (at 8...

    how to complete paperworks for new NP

    As PP said it depends on the state. My APRN license was online and I believe they had to have info from my university as well as AANP. After I got my license and got a job (so I had a collaborating...

    Made a child with cancer cry.

    I haven't worked with TRULY sick kids but I think you need to acknowledge that he is going through a lot but it does not excuse his behavior. "I know you're going through a lot but it does not allow...

    CLINICALLY based DNP

    If I lived closer to my states Med school I might lol. And in undergrad I attended a pharm class when I could that I wasn't signed up for. I'm doing some CEU activities now in ortho (an area I feel...
  7. So venting a little but also curious. When people talk about needing disability because their knee/back/hip hurts when they stand do they not know there are jobs that don't require much standing...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    And thanks everybody for a civil discussion as well. I know plenty truly need disability and deserve it. Yet there are some who work harder at not working. Being in a primary care office now makes me...

    pressure sore

    Maybe it was a stage 1 when the previous nurse saw it. A lot can change in a few hours if a deep tissue injury (closed) has been festering a

    Disability: genuinely curious

    This is similar to the article that was posted early in the thread. I do see where you are coming from. I'm trying to lose a few pounds myself and it sucks. If it were causing me pain I might be more...

    Give inhaler w/o doctor's consent?

    As a medical professional I'd give the inhaler and deal with consequences later. It'd be better to ask forgiveness for that than a child pass out from hypoxia. I wonder if the principal or...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    These are the ones that aggravate me. Not the ones who try to do what we ask. But if your back hurts and you won't even try physical therapy that I recommend it's tough for me to sympathize as much...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    Lol. I mentioned bad apples before I even read your response! I don't know who is on disability and who isn't in my clinic. I just know of a couple who are trying to get it who I (and the primary MD)...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    I was ranting as well starting the thread. And I know most people on disability truly need it. It's always those bad apples (just like with any group of people) that give us all headaches. I am just...

    CLINICALLY based DNP

    After reading this site long enough I know I'm not alone! Those fellowships mentioned above look awesome so I'll have to look more into those and see if any are fairly in my area. For now I'm still...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    The article makes sense but it also aggravates me. I made good grades in school, got scholarships for my BSN, have lived within my means, paid for my MSN to get where I am now. I have a 1000 square...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    Would they not be more suited for case management or a clinic setting?? Heavy lifting in these areas is rare. I think I'd find a job that suited me rather than get special privileges but maybe that's...

    Disability: genuinely curious

    I can see where that would be a sore topic on a unit. I am in an outpatient clinic so wonder more about the general public than nurses. I know we can't do much about some of our aches and pains until...

    Mandatory flu vaccines

    Unless you had an anaphylaxis reaction or hives all over I don't see why you DON'T get it. Also, imagine this: Your elderly grandmother/newborn child is going to the docs office for a routine check...

    Missed order?

    Try not to worry. If the worst you do in your first year of nursing is forget an enema you're golden. The patient wasn't harmed. It was a mistake that humans make and, as far as I know, you are

    CLINICALLY based DNP

    I know I'm not the only one! I will stick with the books I have now and some cool YouTube videos until I find what I want. I still have hope that I'll be Dr. anh06005 one day with a program I'll
