  1. pay

    Tash4nvyblues replied to josh1974's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think anyone has ever questioned that theory, I don't know what to say now . Don't women go crazy post menopause?. My new theory: Half the women in nursing are hormonal, while the other...

  2. MRSA exposure???

    Tash4nvyblues replied to moviefan2000's topic in General Nursing

    An incident report should definitely be filled out no matter how minor the incident seems at the time. And this girl should seek medical advice. My question is, as has already been mentioned, where...

    Tash4nvyblues replied to josh1974's topic in General Nursing

    I know I am in trouble here, but I am qualified to speak here, as I am one. Nursing is still predominantly female, and you know what we can be like every four weeks :argue:. I will retreat

  4. pay

    Tash4nvyblues replied to josh1974's topic in General Nursing

    :chuckle You are very brave, very legitimate question though, I probably would have left out the whining part cause that will ruffle a few feathers. If you have read some of the posts on this site,...

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Bella36RN's topic in General Nursing

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Bella36RN's topic in General Nursing

  10. New Grad feels lost... not cut out for nursing?

    Tash4nvyblues replied to soffy's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Soffy, it sounds like you are feeling really down right now and like things are not going to get better, and it sounds like there are a few others on this thread that are in the same boat as you,...

  11. Urgggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Bella36RN's topic in General Nursing

  12. Another "What would you do post" but I really need some opinions....

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Nursey2b3's topic in General Nursing

    You have done nothing wrong in this situation, every patient has the right to a second opinion and to choose what surgeon they wish to go under. There is no reason for you to worry that you will be...

  13. Help! I need career (change) advice

    Tash4nvyblues replied to uscstu4lfe's topic in General Nursing

    I agree 100%. I maintain that every nurse should have at least 2 yrs of acute nursing before thinking about moving to areas, such as rehab, homecare, psych nursing or primary health. The clinical...

  14. Very disrespectful !!!

    Tash4nvyblues replied to RedhairedNurse's topic in General Nursing

    That is unfortunate, I think we have all been in your situation, There are some nurses out there, where it doesn't matter what you do for them, they will never be satisfied with the work you've done....

  15. Is the FDA failing?

    Tash4nvyblues replied to BradleyRN's topic in General Nursing

    The FDA will continue to fail, if this legislation goes through that the pharmaceutical companies cannot be sued, and it will go through, because the pharmaceutical lobby has far too much power. The...

  16. Nurse manager requests a change in my documentation

    Tash4nvyblues replied to mommy#1nurse#2's topic in General Nursing

    That is incredible, you have done all the paperwork and appropriate interventions that you need to in this situation. Your nurse manager should be documenting the conversation and all related...

  17. Should this patient be in ICU??

    Tash4nvyblues replied to TigerGalLE's topic in General Nursing

    Where I worked, if the ICU was full they would go into the medical ward, but they would call in an extra staff member to special that patient, if required. I would prefer to see a patient like that...

    Tash4nvyblues replied to kc319's topic in Wound, Ostomy, Continence

  19. The good stuff about Nursing Homes....

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Indulgence's topic in General Nursing

  20. do you like nurse managers you work with?

    Tash4nvyblues replied to Ms.RN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I agree with you, our managers seem to leave the office when work becomes really busy and we are left to attend to jobs that should be the work of the managers. Yet the pair of them will turn up to...

  21. Really bad 4 hour shift. help :(

    Tash4nvyblues replied to nursealanarae's topic in First Year After Licensure

  22. Lvn Have To Deal W/ Maggots????

    Tash4nvyblues replied to prenurstudent's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    What's the difference, I thought a maggot was a maggot and they all do the same job, they clean the wound, and why do you assume this is a nursing home
