  1. Intimidation in the workplace

    PeaceonearthRN replied to MelodyRNurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    We all have to look at the real issues at hand! Is it a matter of 'the person NOT doing their job' or are they cleaning up messes from the previous shift , therefore providing 'double' care including...

    PeaceonearthRN replied to Roxy0628's topic in General Students

    Old? OMG.. I graduated when I was 46 right before my 47th birthday. I WISH I would have had the opportunity to do this THEN! Thank God you can do this now! It's an opportunity of a lifetime and...

  4. Support Stickie for New nurses who are not coping

    PeaceonearthRN replied to madwife2002's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Good thought! When does it become unacceptable to not have a positive approach in place to 'develop' newbies? Regarding skills sets and time managment. Has anyone ever thought about being specific...

  5. How My Instructor Affected My Life

    PeaceonearthRN replied to raebabelvn's topic in General Students

    Isnt it sad that individuals can only prove their own feelings of inadequacy by tormenting others! Again, let this make you more determined and see it for what it is worth... the part I left out was...

  6. Intimidation in the workplace

    PeaceonearthRN replied to MelodyRNurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Oh I think attempts to intimidate or humiliate run beyond CNA's. I try very hard to work with my co-workers regardless of their title. It always ceases to amaze me, however, that no matter how hard...

  7. Intimidation in the workplace

    PeaceonearthRN replied to MelodyRNurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Hi, yes, intimidation is rampant in the workplace. I often sit back in amazement as to how people conduct themselves, treat each other, belittle new nurses, and have too much time on their hands for...

  10. How My Instructor Affected My Life

    PeaceonearthRN replied to raebabelvn's topic in General Students

    My dear future nurse! Ah, how your article reminded me of an instructor I 'experienced'. Not only did she 'attack' me the first day of clinicals when i expressed fear of the unexpected but she...

  11. Reporting other nurses

    PeaceonearthRN replied to wanderlust99's topic in General Nursing

    Pettiness takes away from the patient care. Each minute someone spends gossiping, reporting minute infractions etc., they are taking away from making sure the patients are safe. It is sad that...

  12. Catty coworkers

    PeaceonearthRN replied to mycatmax's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think there is a vast difference between feeling frustated with how people are being spoken to or treated versus actual backstabbing. How sad! I would want to stand up to it myself :) How sad...

  13. i feel terrible

    PeaceonearthRN replied to mom2mands's topic in First Year After Licensure

    It seems to vary from place to place as to how orientation and preceptorship occurs; OBGYN is a tough place. As a student we were treated like germs that needed to go away.. ALL OF US.. adult...

  14. Is it too much to ask for your coworkers to be considerate?

    PeaceonearthRN replied to NurseBrittney's topic in First Year After Licensure

    If you do not have to deal with her - DONT! It is bullying and mobbing and it is a disgrace to the profession. Try to look for positive people and just try very hard to ignore her comments. You...

  15. Needs Help With Studying

    PeaceonearthRN replied to BLAZE 007's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I would recommend highly using Saunders for supplemental material throughout nursing school. The rationales really help to expound on concepts in both an explanatory fashion as well as in application....

  16. Advice Please! A cna spread a rumor about me.

    PeaceonearthRN replied to Diahni's topic in General Nursing

    As a new graduate, I have seen a lot worse behavior than gossip or rumor spreading. I would love to see people 'act' like professionals. It would make my new role a lot easier. ex: no evil eye,...

  17. Advice Please! A cna spread a rumor about me.

    PeaceonearthRN replied to Diahni's topic in General Nursing

    Review the words of Eleanor Roosevelt: Great people talk about ideas Good people talk about things Others talk about people. You cannot control what others do; you can only control your response.!!...

  20. Pain is subjective?

    PeaceonearthRN replied to lena130's topic in General Nursing

    I guess every situation is different and we just need to remain objective. My unit is very busy and it would be easy for someone to experience tunnel vision; however, I just hope personally that our...

  21. Pain is subjective?

    PeaceonearthRN replied to lena130's topic in General Nursing

    Three years ago I had a chole as well. It ended up being a full incision and a lovely j peg. The pain became excrutiating after I was off the morphine for a few hours. The day nurse was awful and...
