  1. When physician's act up/out

    Tony35NYC replied to sharann's topic in General Nursing

    So he was willing to let the patient die just because he was having a bad day. What a son of a

  2. Becoming a CRNA

    Tony35NYC replied to mwbeah's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hoping to get into CRNA school in fall 2006 and already putting my app together. Even though the AANA may not require ICU experience, just about all the CRNA schools I looked into require at least a...

  3. Describing Skin Turgor

    Tony35NYC replied to snwflknurse's topic in General Students

    Hi, We're not allowed to use the words "normal" or "abnormal" in our assessments because, we're told, they don't mean anything. You have to say "elastic" or "non-elastic" and if there's tenting you...

  4. Rude and crude RN

    Tony35NYC replied to Thunderwolf's topic in General Nursing

    That co-worker is out of control. If he's so explicit about his sexual fantasies, especially about underage girls, its just a matter of time before he finds himself in hot water. What if one day he's...

  5. SHAVING & WAXING

    Tony35NYC replied to barkley's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Why not shave it? Body hair in certain places can be very unattractive, to both men and women. I'm yet to hear a woman say she finds back hair attractive on men, and I don't know too many guys who're...

  6. Two Questions About Quitting A Job

    Tony35NYC replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    3shiftguy, As a former manager and financial person, here's my 2 cents: The employer won't care if you never pay back that 401k loan because, unlike a bank loan, its your own money that you borrowed...

  7. Is nsg school part of the problem with the profession?

    Tony35NYC replied to rnmi2004's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with what you said about some nurses who complain to co-workers instead of standing up for themselves. As a student, I don't yet know enough about hospital politics to comment on it one way of...

  8. Sexual relationships with patients

    Tony35NYC posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was reading this article about medical students who say they think its fine for healthcare professionals to get into sexual situations with their patients. The report goes on to say that...

  9. "RN" arrested for phony NCLEX scores

    Tony35NYC posted a topic in General Nursing

    This is old news, but I'm seeing it for the first time. http://www.doh.state.fl.us/communications/office/pressreleases/2004/05.21.04ula.doc This woman worked as a nurse tech while she was in nursing...

  10. I think I got fired

    Tony35NYC replied to sherichance's topic in General Nursing

    Don't quit your job, unless you really want to. If you like the job and you want to stay, go in there tomorrow as if nothing happened. Apologize to the supervisor and say that you've been under a lot...

  11. Bush "guest worker" plan includes nurses

    Tony35NYC replied to anon943's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    This was another of Bush's ideas that will never fly. Back in January when Bush made this annoucement, it caught a lot of people by surprise because it was the Bush White House that stirred up the...

  12. Background Check

    Tony35NYC replied to DenaInWyo's topic in General Students

    Dena, I wouldn't be worried about this if I were you. Petty stuff you did before you were 18 isn't likely to show up in a standard DMV background check because many states seal up those records. My...

  13. Cheating

    Tony35NYC replied to stressgal's topic in General Students

    Those students may think they're smart now, but all that cheating they're doing now won't help them when its time to do the NCLEX. I know of a few people at my school who tried to cheat on the exams...

  14. Anyone use dial-up ISP?

    Tony35NYC replied to Baby Catcher's topic in Online Distance Learning

    hello, The $579 may sound like a lot to pay for internet service, but it works out a lot cheaper than paying $59 a month. In many markets where DSL and cable internet service are offered, you will pay...

  15. Forget Nursing School, You Can Buy Your Phony Diploma and Transcripts Online

    Tony35NYC replied to Sheri257's topic in General Students

    Student nurse, It actually takes very little to maintain a website like that. All you need is basic HTML skills, a computer, some software, and a color printer. There's lots of sources of high...

  16. Male L&D nurses

    Tony35NYC replied to Cadeyl's topic in General Nursing

    I was just trying to illustrate that the anti-male rhetoric in this thread is more about old-school feminist politics than it is about the desires of most women who give birth. My point all along is...

  17. Failed the stupid CNA test again...for what???

    Tony35NYC replied to tmiller027's topic in General Nursing

    Dang, that tester was pretty cold. I tend to agree with what you said about BP because depending on the quality of the stethescope you're using and the acuity of your hearing, you WILL hear something...

  18. Fired Again ~ HAHAHA!

    Tony35NYC replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    I meant to ask the same question. What does she mean by

  19. Male L&D nurses

    Tony35NYC replied to Cadeyl's topic in General Nursing

    Nurseunderwater, The fact that you're digging up old posts to try to rationalize your views tells me one thing about you: You're more concerned about being right than you are about hearing other...

  20. Male L&D nurses

    Tony35NYC replied to Cadeyl's topic in General Nursing

    C'mon, My wife is reading your posts and she finds your views of feminism to be very amusing but not very modern. Surely you realize that this discussion is not about the rights of female patients at...

  21. Male L&D nurses

    Tony35NYC replied to Cadeyl's topic in General Nursing

    Much ado about

  22. Male L&D nurses

    Tony35NYC replied to Cadeyl's topic in General Nursing

    How unfortunately myopic! Most women would never even give a second thought to lying spreadeagled in the lithotomy position while a male physician probes with a light and an examination device. Male...

  23. Fired Again ~ HAHAHA!

    Tony35NYC replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    Still a student here, but the policy at the hospital where I'm in rotation is that the nurse should hold the insulin, treat the hypoglycemia, and re-check the glucose level shortly afterwards. The...

  24. I HATE CHEMISTRY! !@#$%^&*

    Tony35NYC replied to Deb123j's topic in General Students

    deb, not all nursing schools are the same and some may have more chemistry in the curriculum than others. but, what i've seen so far is that the chemistry in nursing is very basic and its mostly...

  25. Is there a need for more male nurses?

    Tony35NYC replied to reddgott's topic in General Nursing

    Its all bunk about the need for more men. All that matters is that you've got the
