    SROM question

    klone replied to LJR89's topic in General Students

    Keep your hands out of the lady parts after SROM! Don't automatically assume cord prolapse. If the baby shows indications of prolapse, then yes, you would want to check. And how would the baby show...

    klone replied to chadvena's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Why are people storing alcohol in an empty medicine vial? And if you're a student, shouldn't someone be observing you draw up

    New Graduate Residency Programs

    klone replied to skigirl470's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I'm happy to talk with you about it. I've worked OB at 5 different local hospitals (three of which were through Centura's regional float pool several years ago), and am familiar with the NICUs at both...

    Lost Job on Medical Leave

    klone replied to LisalaRN99's topic in General Nursing

    I would not advise seeing a lawyer. Frankly, it doesn't seem that they have broken any laws. And if you pursue a suit, you have destroyed any chance of getting a position somewhere else in the...

    klone replied to LisalaRN99's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry that happened to you. I hope you continued well wishes on your road to recovery. Sadly, there's not much advice I can offer regarding the job - it was not protected, and they had no legal...

    Tattoos in Nursing School

    klone replied to BBboy's topic in General Students

    No, it's not subjective, and no, it wasn't rude. What they meant by that statement was simply that if the school requires no visible tattoos, then you wait on the tat or you don't go to that school....

    Yes, if the tattoos are visible and it goes against the school's policy, they would likely be excluded from that school. Makeup....will wash off the first time he scrubs/washes. Sleeves....what...

    Please teach me how to "boss" coworkers around.

    klone replied to jennibeans's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Is her problem that she's slow, or is her problem that she's insubordinate? If it's the former, then maybe you need to assist her in learning how to do things in a more efficient, expeditious manner....

    Genetics Nursing

    klone replied to spammy_j's topic in General Nursing

    There is also a graduate degree in genetic COUNSELING. That's maybe something you could pursue after you're done with your BSN. I am only aware of the program in my city, but I'm sure there are other...

    What are the rules of what we can tell patients?

    klone replied to NursingInChaos's topic in General Nursing

    I tell the patient anything they ask that I have the knowledge to explain in further detail if they have questions about it. If I don't have the depth of knowledge, I defer to someone who does. Yes,...

    Would you have told management?

    You extrapolated some weird stuff from her post. I didn't see anyone talk about calling people and interrogating them. Does your cancer and complications thereof mean that you're leaving used syringes...

    RN jobs for 6-12 mos experience

    klone replied to outriton's topic in Colorado Nursing

    EFM gives us a lot of information. No, of course it doesn't tell us if a woman is in true labor. The important information it gives us is about fetal wellbeing and oxygenation, and how the fetus...
