  4. Who's #1 your patient or you?

    FROGGYLEGS replied to rscarlatti's topic in General Nursing

    I used to work through my lunch breaks until mgmt starting having a fit and suspending people for not clocking out for lunch. They say it has to stop because of OSHA requirements, I say they are...

  5. lpn looking to travel

    FROGGYLEGS replied to rheebaby's topic in Travel

    There are many listing for travel nursing agencies within popular nursing magazines. Take your pick and call them up. I considered travelling as an LPN about 3 years ago. At that time I applied...

  6. Resignation

    FROGGYLEGS replied to prettypaws's topic in General Nursing

    Two weeks is pretty standard for almost all employees. The only nurses I've encountered that have been obligated to four are the ones in managerial positions such as a DON or Nurse Manager. I'd...

  7. Could this be true or is this proud papa just bragging.

    FROGGYLEGS replied to oramar's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know. I have a relative who is a new-grad LPN that makes $26/hr. She has less than 3 months experience total. Her job is private duty with different ventilator patients in their home. She...

  8. What does Charge Nurse really mean?

    FROGGYLEGS replied to redwinggirlie's topic in General Nursing

    The term charge nurse in LTC has always puzzled me. In my experiences there all the nurses on the floor were charge

  9. nursing liability insurance companies

    FROGGYLEGS replied to FROGGYLEGS's topic in General Nursing

    I apologize if it sounds as if I am interested in debating the subject. I am requesting recommendations for an insurance provider and attempting to answer your question with my personal opinion. I am...

  10. nursing liability insurance companies

    FROGGYLEGS replied to FROGGYLEGS's topic in General Nursing

    Other than the service they provide when you have a claim or need advice, I suppose there isn't a way to really *know* if you're satisfied with them or not. I don't know anybody that has used their...

  11. nursing liability insurance companies

    FROGGYLEGS replied to FROGGYLEGS's topic in General Nursing

    The only other company I was able to find was medmal4nurses.com . It is a different looking site and advertises cheaper rates, but the only way to contact them is via the internet? I don't like...

  12. Doctor in your next life?

    FROGGYLEGS replied to Hopegirl's topic in General Nursing

    NO. I wouldn't be a doctor, unless it was a veterinarian. I really don't think I'd be a nurse

  13. Is there a need for more male nurses?

    FROGGYLEGS replied to reddgott's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds like a good deal to me.

  14. Is there a need for more male nurses?

    FROGGYLEGS replied to reddgott's topic in General Nursing

    I can't see why we would need a male nurse in particular. If someone preferred a new nurse that was male, I would assume that they were looking for someone to help with the lifting and disorderly...

  15. Failed the stupid CNA test again...for what???

    FROGGYLEGS replied to tmiller027's topic in General Nursing

    At least in this state, it is a rule that the test taker get a BP measurement within so many increments of the test administrator's in order to pass. I'm not sure of the exact number of increments,...

  16. do you ever get comfortable with nudity

    FROGGYLEGS replied to bogeydog's topic in Nursing Career

    Yes, I was more than a little intimidated by the thought of inserting catheters and by having to ask people to remove their clothing as part of my work. I was not sure that I'd ever get comfortable...

  17. Mandatory Meetings :(

    FROGGYLEGS replied to MandyInMS's topic in General Nursing

    Oooh boy; I love these kind of meetings. Seriously it has gotten to where we have a mandantory meeting weekly. Many people complained to corporate about this and other things last year. Corporate...

  18. I have to be bathed by my classmate???

    FROGGYLEGS replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    Sponge baths we did. They weren't nearly as bad as what we'd built them up to be. If you do it right, there really isn't an invasion of

  19. Funny things you have said but wish you didn't

    FROGGYLEGS replied to FranEMTnurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    Okay I've got one more. I sort of have a habit of calling people I don't know personally by their first and last names if I mention them in conversation. The few people that I meet that consistently...

    FROGGYLEGS replied to FranEMTnurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    oooh....yikes.

  21. nurses are fortunate

    FROGGYLEGS replied to angel337's topic in General Nursing

    With education and training, you are probably less likely to be laid off than "unskilled" workers. It doesn't make you immune to it, but I would say you would have an easier time finding a...

  22. CNA Training

    FROGGYLEGS replied to Ned the Red's topic in Texas Nursing

    A lot of vocational schools train CNAs, but the course is longer and you have to pay tuition. Chances are you can find a nursing home that will train someone to be a CNA for free. They do that in...

  23. Funny things you have said but wish you didn't

    FROGGYLEGS replied to FranEMTnurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    In high school I worked at a couple of fast food restaurants part-time. I worked the drive-thru at McDonalds, when I quit I went and worked the drive-thru at Taco Bell. Once, out of habit, I answered...

  24. Drug Testing

    FROGGYLEGS replied to shel_wny's topic in General Nursing

    I've been drug tested since I was 16 y/o. The vast majority of jobs I've had did drug test me. I don't think there are many jobs that don't do urine drug screens. I have seen where some people are...
