  1. Should assaults on medical personnel be a Felony Offense?

    AmericanRN replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm glad that the person was arrested in this case. I am assuming that this person was NOT mentally ill and just a sicko who felt they could attack you because you were a nurse. It is a get away plan...

  2. Should assaults on medical personnel be a Felony Offense?

    AmericanRN replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in General Nursing

  3. Should assaults on medical personnel be a Felony Offense?

    AmericanRN replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in General Nursing

  5. Student Help - Infant/Toddler Observation

    AmericanRN replied to Dr.Nurse2b's topic in General Nursing

    I think there are different kinds of looks. A dirty look from a patient or family member is one thing. The "are you a pedophile look" is something entirely different. I think he was right to steer...

    AmericanRN replied to AspiringNurse7's topic in General Nursing

    There are a lot of cranky, burnt out people in many fields. It is up to you about what you may want to do. Teachers get burnt out as well and they have a lot of kids crammed into those class rooms in...

    AmericanRN replied to Dr.Nurse2b's topic in General Nursing

    AmericanRN replied to rmfrier's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am not trying to make light of this but they are not your friends. No friend would do that regardless of who passed and who did not. It is really that cut and dry. You passed a test that you worked...
