    Should I feel bad for not picking up extra shifts?

    Should you feel bad? No. Nee. Ne. Nedda. Nie. Não. And my personal favorite, even censored - eff no. Not at

    Monkey Bars

    I'm an inpatient peds nurse, not school nurse, but I love reading this forum. Let me just say that even as an inpatient nurse, monkey bars are the BANE of my existence too! Every single time we get a...

    LGBT Nurses

    I’m proudly bisexual, married to a man, and work inpatient pediatrics...it has definitely been a struggle at

    Help. Input. Agree. Disagree. Thoughts.

    If the formula would have been primed all the way down to the open end where the cap was missing, I wouldn’t have hung it. But the fact that the tubing essentially wasn’t primed at all, so there...

    To look professional

    ? I love how this came full circle.

    Any way you could stay over and work a few hours

    As the saying goes, "Just Say No." End of
  7. First, interviewing for nursing school is NOT discrimination. At all. Second, my humble suggestion is for you to change your mind frame because it appears that you may be being your own worst enemy....

    Lost job over HIPAA violation

    Please help me understand this logic? Why should the hospital be held accountable for allowing a nurse to access a patient's

    Nurses Call the Governor of Tennessee

    I think that was a big assumption on your behalf. As someone who voted that she should be charged, that does not mean I think she should be charged and found guilty. It just means that her behavior...

    Nurses Call the Governor of Tennessee

    Lol! Yes I’m sure there’s been a ton. Nothing wrong with being impassioned of course. I am just struggling with so many people blindly using emotion rather than logic to come to their conclusions....

    Nurses Call the Governor of Tennessee

    She had every opportunity to check the right patient and right dose, you don’t need a scanner for that. She admitted she didn’t even LOOK at the vial that she pulled! This was in the CMS report....

    Nurses Call the Governor of Tennessee

    Did you read any bit of the CMS report or do any actual research prior to writing this? I’m going to assume the answer is no based on this. She admitted to being in the role of a “help all”...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    Not just died on your watch, but undisputedly died 1000% as a result of your actions. Yea, a few months in the fetal position balling my eyes out, in therapy, would be just the

    How to be a Perfect Nurse

    Seems like everyone on this post “gets it” except for the OP; nobody is claiming to be a perfect nurse. I read every single response of the other thread. Nobody said they were perfect and just...

    Nurses Call the Governor of Tennessee

    Wow. This is raw, honest, direct, and truthful. One of those truths that we don't want to hear but need to hear. Love this a million

    Nurses Call the Governor of Tennessee

    I completely agree. I would be curious if the same people who do not think she should be criminally charged (charged, not automatically found guilty) would feel the same way if it were a similar...

    How many of you disinfect car after work?

    In my humble opinion, this seems like overkill. Like Wuzzie said, I've never caught anything in my 12 years besides respiratory stuff and I wear my work shoes in the house, I don't strip down as soon...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    I can't completely agree with this logic. There are way too many facilities out there that are so focused on the money that you have brand new nurses with a year's experience getting placed in...

    Anyone else regret becoming a nurse?

    Not a single day have I ever regretted it. It allows me great schedule flexibility, fairly good pay with the option to always make more money via overtime when I want/need it, and I am fortunate to...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    I guess I struggle with where to draw the line like others have mentioned. I am no lawyer, but in regards to criminality I think her intent is the main thing that matters which is why she isn't being...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    No.

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    I completely understand your argument and what you are saying, for sure. I definitely see it differently, not as one big mistake but rather I see it as the multiple individual mistakes that she made...

    Nurse Charged With Homicide

    I've already read through every reply on this page, including your post regarding reckless homicide and Russian roulette, as well as the CMS report. Not sure why you are assuming I haven't read just...
  25. Yes it appears you misunderstood. The OP specifically mentioned that an "RN and BSN do the same thing" as if they were comparing apples to apples. I simply was stating that they are different things -...
