    Opportunity to join the Heart Team

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to RollingThunder's topic in Operating Room

    Sounds like the people that said this have the elitist attitude. Two reasons why i'm not considering our facility's heart team 1)it would interfere with school and 2) the people that do hearts do...

    patient satisfaction

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to RNLex's topic in Emergency

    Funny thing is, we get surveys in our email with such surveys, and after the results are in, there are excuses that are tied to the poor results. Amazing how excuses wouldn't be tied to any of it if...

    I can't wear full panty hose. Being tall, most hose are designed for peopel that are 5'8" at the tallest and have 30 inch legs. I have 4 more inches of legs, so it takes all of 20 minutes before the...

    Or even better, threaten to go to Human Resources when she does start picking on you. If she asks why, say "Well, thought that's what we had to do when someone gets a sense of humor. We have to put...

    Nursing with a Southern Accent

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to natron20's topic in General Nursing

    I'd never assume that someone who does this is less intelligent or even question their intelligence:madface: . Perhaps they have a LD, or some other issue aside from intelligence or education that's...

    Advice needed about co-worker issue=LONG

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to Nightcrawler's topic in General Nursing

    Would this be excusable if she still had her uterus? Doubt it. So her excuse isn't washing. And it sounds like a big case of her dishing out applesauce that she's not willing to take a bite of...

    I think families help out because they want to help out the pt. You feel helpless when your loved one is laying there in a coma for weeks, and even a bathbath can help them feellike they are...

    Pet peeves!

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to ADN 2002's topic in General Nursing

    People who don't have the willingness to learn something new. Had someone tell me on one of my first call weekends that i would be the one setting up and doing the 3 ORIF cases we had scheduled,...

    Nursing with a Southern Accent

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to natron20's topic in General Nursing

    Some people ARE judgmental about accents (but some people are judgmental about any and everything as well). I have a pretty heavy southern accent as well. I mainly watch to make sure that the words i...

    Pubic hair

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to nurseJLoo's topic in General Nursing

    We have trimmed hair down there if the Ioban got stuck to it. Sorry, it was either a manscaping moment, or his skin would resemble the after effects of a giant industrially adhesive band-aid getting...

    Yeah but my pt. teaching wouldn't be different if i didn't know this. If my pt. was the man i would (privately) emphasize the importance of testing and such, and re-emphasize the risk he's presenting...

    Nurses dating Doctors??

    Marie_LPN, RN replied to Rn2bKatie's topic in General Nursing

    But the doctors wouldn't be conducting themselves unprofiessionally there, though? So why wouldn't they be punished? If they don't get some sort of reprimand, that's like saying acting like a stud dog...
