    HappyBunnyNurse posted a topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I'm currently considering NNP programs. I'm interested in University of South Alabama and University of Alabama at Birmingham. These are both online programs but are close enough to my home for me to...

    HappyBunnyNurse posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm considering attending USA's online NNP program. I've searched allnurses and found a few threads about USA's online FNP program. Most students didn't have great things to say. I'm just wondering...

    Thanks BlessedX3. I sent you a message to get the email. I had another more general question.... about the tuition. I had trouble making sense of the price list. Is the online tuition the regular...

  5. Agonal breathing

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to nurse4theKing's topic in General Nursing

    For the record this is what I said: I don't see how that can be taken as "just do cpr". However, I'm sorry if it was taken that way. Maybe I should have said in a pre-hospital, on the street, by...

  8. What is wrong with these people?

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to JB2007's topic in General Nursing

    I too live in a very small town (though I work in a large town---long drive --sigh). However I did at one point work in the small town (teacher then--- before nursing school---- EVERYONE talks about...

  9. So what would you guys do?

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to samirish's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you should see if you can shadow each before you make the decision. The LPNs I have worked with did the same work pretty much as the RNs (with a few exceptions like IV care) just for a lot less...

  14. Posting pictures to facebook

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to divaRN*'s topic in General Nursing

    Families take pictures of everything. I mean EVERYTHING! They also want to keep everything including bloody blankets ("that touched my baby!"). I'm sure Mom wanted the pictures posted if this woman...

  16. New nurse cross-training in 6 different OB areas??

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to AvaRN22's topic in Ob/Gyn

    O Yep. If you find yourself in a situation that costs you your licence then you won't have ANY job. By the way I would figure any cross training to a Level III NICU would be to take care of "feeder...

  17. Patients and the race card

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to CanadaEh's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If a patient accuses you of racism you just ask yourself if you are treating that patient any different than you would someone of another race. If in your heart you know that you are not being racist...

  18. Just like Pig-Pen from Charlie Brown

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to KarmaComesAround's topic in General Nursing

    Doesn't help at work but I have found that bathing with baking soda helps get rid of any smell when I get home. You can put it in your bath water and even wash your hair with it. You can also add it...

  22. Cleaning protocol in nicu

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to Julie Basilio's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    It really makes me mad when I get a baby and there is poop or blood all over the counter or incubator/warmer. But what makes me the most mad are those milk splatters inside the incubator! What a great...

  23. Pregnancy and CMV patients

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to LPN2RN1's topic in General Nursing

    The mrsa isolation surely helped you because you were extra careful. I work in the NICU and we don't have any special precautions for possible cmv positive infants. Just gloves. Our pregnant nurses do...

  24. Home entryway

    HappyBunnyNurse replied to cookio11's topic in General Nursing

    I leave my shoes in my utility room. ALL my shoes not just my work shoes. Who knows what we step in at the store or parking lot. It might be worse than work!
