  1. about ready to give up on nursing...

    mstewart replied to sherichance's topic in General Nursing

    There was quite a wait to get in to local RN programs for me...so I decided to go the LPN route instead. I plan on finishing that getting some experience, and then going into the RN program. Even...

  2. Discarded babies

    mstewart replied to Browneyedgirl's topic in General Nursing

    Where I live I believe a woman can drop off her baby at any hospital, I think Police Department too, with out any questions. There was a baby taken out of an apartment in the northeren part on MN the...

  3. LTC Comgomerate? (sp)

    mstewart posted a topic in General Nursing

    Has anyone heard anything about "Beverly Enterprises"? Thye won over 25 LTC facilities in Minneapolis, I'm not sure about elsewhere in the US. I am interested to know because they supposedly have some...

  4. just awful

    mstewart replied to germain's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    That is just sick. I agree, make them climb up stairs and see how they like it! I guess I don't really care when this incident happened-it has always been wrong to deny people access to public places...

  5. Sugar Addiction?

    mstewart replied to VivaLasViejas's topic in General Nursing

    OKAY, all this talk of food is making me

  6. Is my marriage doomed? (very long post )

    mstewart replied to lmolvr's topic in General Nursing

    my hubby and I got married rather quickly too. Our first year of marriage was hell! But, we worked out our differences. It was hard-but we made it. We still hit rough spots, just like everyone else....

  7. Did you have to go the scenic route to complete nursing school?

    mstewart replied to szccdw's topic in General Nursing

    Well, am I ever glad to see this thread!! Just started my LPN program last year in june. Well, I have only been able to take a couple classes at a time. It seems to be taking me FOREVER. If I stay at...

  8. I hate it when people say this...

    mstewart replied to Shotzie's topic in General Nursing

    Right now I am in school to be an LPN. I have only encountered encouraging remarks. But I hate when they say. "When/are you going to be an RN?" Yeah, let me finish school first. What LPN wouldn't be...

  9. Co-Workers teasing your spouse!!

    mstewart replied to kwagner_51's topic in General Nursing

    No. I have never heard of this happening to anyone I go to school with either. That is harrassment. Your hubby needs to stand up for himself, and you and tell them to mind their own business. After he...

  10. Holiday blues

    mstewart posted a topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I think I have a touch of the "bah-humbugs" this year. Holiday stress, school stress, money... Anyone else feeling this way? Misery loves company. Any suggestions to get out of this

  11. Holiday blues

    mstewart replied to mstewart's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Thanks, I think you're right. I think I need to focus more on the GOOD things in my life. Roof over my head, food to eat, I still have my job-so I can afford to pay my bills. I am certainly more...

  12. just curious

    mstewart replied to Paige Turner RN's topic in General Nursing

    Nevermind...I guess they do smear before the "ink" dries. Bic makes the pencil...it's called a Z4. Looks just like a liquid

  13. just curious

    mstewart replied to Paige Turner RN's topic in General Nursing

    those new gel pens seem to be better at not smudging...I also just got a new liquid pencil (it can't be erased-so why is it a pencil?), anyway...I like

  14. tropical vacations

    mstewart replied to robynrn2b's topic in General Nursing

    If you're not all about the nightlife, and want more of an authenic feel, with out sacraficing the benefits of modern civilization...Cozumel is nice for those not looking for a HUGE nightlife. I think...

  15. I am in tears! (long)

    mstewart replied to ava'smomRN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the other posters. I also whole-heartedly agree with the idea that your sister may be jealous. Yep, wait a few days and then tell her that she hurt your feelings. Way to go on your...

  16. How do I find a good nursing school in MN

    mstewart replied to Jangel's topic in General Nursing

  17. Snow...snow and more snow!

    mstewart replied to funnygirl_rn's topic in General Nursing

    Hey!! You guys are getting all our snow-give it back. Up here in the not-so-frozen tundra, the great state of MINNESOTA!! Last year IL got all of our snow. We got a little last night. At least we will...

  18. Ticked off and ready to quit job!

    mstewart replied to lashon20's topic in General Nursing

    Okay, it is your arss on a biscuit if rounds don't get done, not staffing or admin. And, they cut shift differential:eek: WTH?? Get out! and, yeah, don't list this place on your resume! It woudln't...

  19. Psychic patient

    mstewart replied to TnValCNA's topic in General Nursing

    I have yet to deal with a patient that is truely "mine" as I am still in school. And, it would freak me out to have some one tell the they have a special gift. There must be a reason that she is...

  20. Botox, plastic surgery...

    mstewart posted a topic in General Nursing

    Just read something that made me want to ask for YOUR opinion... How do you all feel about surgerys and meds (botox, rogaine for men) to reverse or hide the signs of aging. Just to share...my dad has...

  21. Physical signs of impending death?

    mstewart replied to can'twait2B1's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    my deepest symapthies can't wait (((hugs))) to you and your family. Have to agree with gibbie-I sincerely believe that people choose who will be with them at their passing. You were not meant to be...

  22. Welcome to the ER. Please observe the following rules. (mild rant)

    mstewart replied to V. Nightingale's topic in Emergency

    I don't know about elsewhere in the country, but here in MN we have a place called "Urgent Care". It is just basically a clinic that is open past 5pm. For people with normal jobs that are sick, but...

  23. But I have little kids!

    mstewart replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    Okay, I just HAVE to add my 2 cents... I had an aunt that was a nurse for many years, and therefore had to work some holidays-never heard her complain. Her family just adjusted to her schedule. That...

  24. How Rude!!!

    mstewart replied to stella123 rn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I was thinking that too. I know the farmers I grew up with were really smart with their money-but not rich... and would they never think that nursing was any less of an important job than a doctor....

  25. Coworker was fired yesterday.

    mstewart replied to flashpoint's topic in General Nursing

    OMG!! Why, I wonder, did some one not report this woman to the BON for neglect or abuse?? If she did that to my mother, you bet I would file SOMETHING!! Anyway-stick to your guns-and stay away from...
