  3. qualities needed for CNA

    shelly304 replied to k777's topic in General Nursing

    The fact that you ASKED what qualities are needed is enough to make me think you have what it takes! Everyone had great input. Team work, compassion, respect, empathy-all qualities needed when taking...

    shelly304 replied to DA314's topic in General Nursing

    I thought there was a mod assigned to every few threads. There seem to be so many. I have no idea how the whole "mod thing" works. It seems like some threads have mods breaking in constantly, so I...

    shelly304 replied to medsurgrnco's topic in General Nursing

    shelly304 replied to medsurgrnco's topic in General Nursing

    I visit several other BBs. So many members from here are posting on other sites,non-nursing, under the same screen name. It is incredible to me how info I have/can find out about people. It is layed...

    shelly304 replied to Price 2002's topic in General Nursing

    shelly304 replied to Nurse Salt's topic in General Nursing

    shelly304 replied to henryswife's topic in LPN to RN

  15. Failed Drug Test!!!!!!

    shelly304 replied to coolpeach's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, that is correct. Unless you have signed documentation in your MDs office etc., stating that a medical facility has been given permission, by you, to leave a detailed message with an answering...

  16. Is this even possible?

    shelly304 replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    Hmmm, I just do not like what I am feeling as I read this thread. It seems as if you are so in love with him you are willing to take emotional abuse from your husband. "He knows what he's got and does...

  17. Failed Drug Test!!!!!!

    shelly304 replied to coolpeach's topic in General Nursing

    I have suffered from migraines since I was 13. I have been to several "headache clinics" where I was a pt. for a month at a time, done bio-feedback, been on more meds than I can remember (my freshman...

    shelly304 replied to nurseby07's topic in General Nursing

  19. Just got BA...is being a CNA "below" me?

    shelly304 replied to kix86's topic in General Nursing

    The person the OP is speaking of is like sooo many with the same attitude in the general public. ............They think all nurses do is pass out a few pills, fluff pillows and say, "Yes,...

  20. Doctor's office and "nurses"

    shelly304 replied to stunt's topic in General Nursing

    I work with several CMAs in my hospital clinic. Hiring CMAs is new to this facility. I respect the people I work with- no matter their credential. Once again I give credit to Pagan for clarifying the...

  21. Doctor's office and "nurses"

    shelly304 replied to stunt's topic in General Nursing

    I always find these MA threads so interesting. I work in a clinic with several nurse practitioners and physicians assistants. Please note-not one of them hold a doctorate. But a few refer to...

  22. does age REALLY matter?

    shelly304 replied to pinkynbd_99's topic in General Nursing

    So, you have been married since you were 16, started nursing school before 19 and didn't pass the first time around because you were not prepared for the demand of nursing school. Sounds to me like...

  23. does age REALLY matter?

    shelly304 replied to pinkynbd_99's topic in General Nursing

  24. does age REALLY matter?

    shelly304 replied to pinkynbd_99's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, maybe someone should let John McCain know that at age 70 he is thought of as "non-productive". To the OP- please take the time to read current data on the median age in the U.S. work-force. As a...
