   MeJane19 replied to pagandeva2000's topic in General Nursing

   If the patient is unable to swallow or is unconcious and you don't have IV access you can go the rectal route with any liquid containing glucose.

2. How can I comfort the crying patient?

   MeJane19 replied to WVStarFish's topic in General Nursing

   I'm not a nurse yet but I would think a hug and sitting holding their hand or just touching them lightly on the arm would mean alot to them. Just be a good listener. Great question.

3. Your boss insists on employees taking flu vaccine

   MeJane19 replied to seenitallERnurse's topic in General Nursing

   I got the flu last year too. I think more people did than ever before. I think they missed a strain? or something like that. Likely as not I'll take it again this year.

   No one can make you take the flu vaccine they can however ask you to sign a form that says you decline to take it. It's no big deal.

   I think you should probably stay out of her business, seems like she's getting into trouble all by herself.

   MeJane19 replied to emmy41lgpn's topic in General Nursing

   You already knew that so what is the point? To reach the physician on call push #1. If this is an emergency please go directly to the ER. Doctors cover for each other that's the way it works. You won't reach the 15 doctors you specifically called.

11. Am I wrong?

    MeJane19 replied to emmy41lgpn's topic in General Nursing

    So true! She made her complaint, which is her right, it's done, it's over, I personally think she should have complained to the doctor directly. Complaining to the hospital is like Nanner! Nanner! Nanner!

    MeJane19 replied to emmy41lgpn's topic in General Nursing

    Finally the voice of reason. Thank you embarrasingfield. I was wondering how can all these nurses can be so unrealistic. While I think the doctor was WRONG not to tell his patients that he doesn't take call, which in itself is WRONG also, that is par...

    They cannot earn the same salary as an RN Doctors earn plenty of money. They live in big houses, drive expensive cars, live very nice lifestyles. They deserve it because they worked hard to get where they are. Doctors can afford to employ licensed...

15. Question about CMA (Certified Medical Assistants)!!!!

    MeJane19 replied to GlaMoUr_GirL's topic in General Nursing

    Go to college and get your RN while you're young and you can. Once you get married and have children it becomes much more difficult. MA's make very little compared to RN's. If you get your RN and work for a year on a med/surg floor you can then do tr...
