    Can I Refuse to Work If My Facility Does Not Have Proper Personal Protective Equipment?

    BradleyRN replied to Lorie Brown RN, MN, JD's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I would say the best move would be for all nurses to drop to PRN status. Then when they are begging you to work, you can give them stipulations, like either give me PPE or no coronavirus patient. I...

    New Grad Worried I Forgot Everything I Learned in School

    BradleyRN replied to natclark28's topic in General Nursing

    School barely prepares you for the real world. It takes a year, and everybody did it. So regardless of how others act, they were once like you are now. Ask questions. Don't do procedures you haven't...

    I don’t fit in, and my coworkers think I’m an idiot

    BradleyRN replied to Newbie4567's topic in General Nursing

    Nurses stab each other in the back all the time. They will talk about the girl who isn't there, but when she's back, she will be in the circle talking about someone else who isn't there. Bored,...

    BradleyRN replied to HippyHappyRN's topic in General Nursing

    You seem to try to exonerate yourself for being late just because they hadn't started report. "That was considered late", like you don't know that. And then the "unfortunate mistake of oversleeping"....

    Refusing Care of a COVID-19 Patient Due to Inappropriate PPE

    BradleyRN replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Companies just sent 280 million masks overseas. Those shipments should have been stopped and redirected to our facilities. Trump still hasn't released the supplies promised by the Pentagon. 1000s of...

    Refusing Care of a COVID-19 Patient Due to Inappropriate PPE

    BradleyRN replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That is ridiculous. "Equipment is never guaranteed"? Ludicrous! You would willingly spread the virus to your grocery store clerk, your family, other patients and your fellow workers, trying to be a...

    Refusing Care of a COVID-19 Patient Due to Inappropriate PPE

    BradleyRN replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If you take care of a patient without appropriate PPE, you risk contracting the virus and taking it to the rest of your patients for 2-14 days until you realize you are sick, as well as family...

    I Don't Get the Anxiety Part of Nursing

    BradleyRN replied to missmollie's topic in General Nursing

    The title of the thread is "I don't get the "anxiety" part of nursing"? You're telling people not to cry? You seem a little flippant about the things you "occasionally miss", and perhaps that gives...
