  2. Frustrated

  3. Thank you AllNurses.com from a new MICU RN

    You are a CLASS ACT! To take the time to thank everyone shows a lot about your character. Now if only more nurses, (including myself), could follow your lead, maybe one day nurses will be nicer to...
  4. Is This a HIPPA Violation?

    I have to agree that this seems like a case of a nosy nurse trying to be some kind of hero or something. I am not sure if this constitutes a HIPAA violation, but it sure qualifies as "unprofessional...
  5. Is This a HIPPA Violation?

    I don't mean to be harsh, but I have to ask why you insist on arguing your point? The OP asked for opinions on situation regarding HIPAA and in your first response you didn't even have the courtesy...
  6. Calling experienced rn's!

  8. My Preceptor Hates Me (need advice)

    I am so sorry this has happened to you. How could a nurse like this be chosen to precept?? Does management just not care? I know this is after the fact, but I wish you could have said something...
  9. Creaky, Squeaky Danskos!

    Been wearing the same Danskos for the last year. At my present facility, they squeak, and I feel like the cat with a bell around its neck! (they know I'm coming!), but at my previous facility, they...

  11. Any "50-ish" Pre-Nursing Students?

    Hey CareerThree, you are my hero! I graduated last December at the age of 59. Third career for me too, after teaching and working in the dental field. I now work on an oncology floor and love...
  12. I find it quite interesting that a previous poster in this thread who stated that because of her wonderful education, she came to the floor and barely had to ask for help. In another thread just...

    Oh no! Just noticed that it is "sharpei".

  16. Doctor's Fiancee yelled at me

    PLEASE close this thread. QT is probably laughing her a** off, regardless of whether she is for real or a
  17. Doctor's Fiancee yelled at me

    This has to be the best response on this thread. It says it all! The fact that we are even responding to the OP's inane comments is probably feeding into her distorted views. Sorry for being so blunt,...

    hey qt...if you "pursued nursing to marry a doctor", boy, are you are in for a rude

    What an insightful post! With an attitude like yours, there is no doubt in my mind that you will be successful! I hope you enjoy this time, because even with the many ridiculous things that can come...
  22. I am a recent graduate. While the area that I live is hiring, the pay scale is way below average. I decided that I wanted to move to Texas and filled out many online applications. I received many...
  23. First year nursing student

    Hi To All New Students!! I went back to school three years ago, at the age of 56. Yes, it is overwhelming at first, and some semesters are harder than others. Just listen real well in class, read...
