    made a big mistake in clinical.... now what?

    There's a time and a place for humor, the instructor's office is not one of those place. It would be best if the sarcasm, smart-orificed comments, snaps, remarks, and attitude were left at home. It's...

    End stage CHF symptoms?

    This is exactly what happened to Grandma. Eventually, she had also gone into renal failure, but she refused dialysis (i didn't blame her) and started receiving hospice. I was in clinical at the...

    Respiratory therapist charged with molestation

    Well i figured the gasoline and fire fumes would get to him. I definitely don't suggest a simple shooting. No suffering

    Getting a job in the OR

    Don't know many ER nurses that are not overworked. Definitely don't know many Maternity nurses that aren't overworked (they are a closed-staffing unit where i

    Nurse dates doctor openly at work.

    Did i say that? No. What i remark on is what the OP is presenting, and i'm aware there is more than one side of a

    Assisting in abortions

  17. Where i work, sharps containers are only changed out only when they get full (or stink, thanks to Kefzol smelling like cat pee), so even though that room hadn't been used for that long, there very...

    do you feel like the CNA's run the floor?

    The term "aide" never bothered me. I aided/assisted people with ADLs, maybe that's why i wasn't bitter about the

    Why I hate DC

    I love all that stuff about DC too, but not enough to move there. I stay for a week with a friend every once in awhile, and the traffic and parking are enough to make me miss my town. And i don't...
