  1. Clinicals

    cherrybreeze replied to Lisa, MA's topic in General Nursing

    I disagree with the "slave labor" aspect, at least from back when I did clinicals, and the groups of clinical students I've seen over the years and currently. They are learning the job. They do more...

  2. University of Utah Medical Center implements new dress code

    cherrybreeze replied to pennyaline's topic in General Nursing

    Hey now, I have a pair of brown scrubs that is actually a very beatiful color, and I would get a lot of compliments on them. They only stay in my closet now because I gained weight and they don't...

  3. When everybody knows your name

    cherrybreeze replied to 313RN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with most of what's been posted in the replies above (not so much to the *delusional* thought, though). I think using first names helps build a rapport of ease and trust with our patients....

  4. Why not a "match day" for nurses?

    cherrybreeze replied to lalalalexi's topic in General Nursing

    Harsh, much? Not all people need a liberal arts education to produce proper sentence structure, use words correctly, and not write like "a child." I've looked at some BSN bridge program cirriculum,...

  5. Advice?My sons friend is acting strange.

    cherrybreeze replied to 1blue&1browneye's topic in General Nursing

    He needs his dad's permission to be treated, that is the problem. The issue is not whether the OP WANTS to take him, it's that his dad doesn't want her to/won't give her permission

  6. Advice?My sons friend is acting strange.

    cherrybreeze replied to 1blue&1browneye's topic in General Nursing

    You would need parental permission to have him treated, likely in writing. Does this young man WANT to go to the doctor? That may help sway his dad's opinion. If the clinic believes he needs to be...

  7. Perfume allergy...what to do?

    cherrybreeze replied to Rocknurse's topic in General Nursing

    In my last reply, I was responding to the post I quoted...I didn't mean to imply, if it sounded that way, that the request you posed to the woman in transport was done so in any of those manners. I...

  8. Perfume allergy...what to do?

    cherrybreeze replied to Rocknurse's topic in General Nursing

    I think the bolded statement may be part of the problem. People generally don't respond well to these tactics, particularly the threatening and warning. The focus becomes on the method of requesting...

  10. Nutrition and pathophysiology missing in curriculum

    cherrybreeze replied to on eagles wings's topic in General Nursing

    I am sure the patho that you need is part of the actual nursing classes. I can see the benefit of having it offered as a separate class and a pre-req, but you're still going to be getting it along...

  11. Desperate to resign from dir of nsg position in az

    cherrybreeze replied to florence09's topic in General Nursing

    Agreed, it cannot be immediately or 24 hours. While they can't STOP you from doing that, it would reflect very poorly on you trying to find another job. Also consider everyone it will impact. You...

  12. this hit too close to home...

    cherrybreeze replied to leslie :-D's topic in General Nursing

    I don't even know what to say, leslie. What a heartbreaking situation. I applaud you for sticking to your guns, both now and in the past...being "friends" with those that work at the hospital...

  13. Hairline fracture?

    cherrybreeze replied to 2shihtzus's topic in General Nursing

    I might just be a big baby, though.

  14. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    Read the question again, then try clicking on *the

  15. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    ARGH! I got to the "Epic 10," (which I believe are the last 10 questions) and keep getting shot on 102...I know what to do, again, can't do it FAST enough. Blast. I have some errands to run, so I'll...

  16. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    Is the paint one, the one with the easel? BOGGY? Look at the letters, they corrospond to the colors you need to click on.

  17. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry, this is the first I've been on the computer today. Look at the phrase..."the end of the world"...what's at the end of the world? (it would be: !) :) Glad you guys are wasting as much time...

  18. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    Trying to remember which question the duck is...I'll probably see it when I go through (AGAIN, haha). Yup, found it. Have no idea why the answer to that one is what it is, I just randomly clicked on...

  19. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    It's addicting, isn't it?? As far as 59 goes, I lost on the one after it because, if you close your browser and reopen it and do the quiz again, it'll change your answer to #60. I said "no" again,...

  20. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    NOOOO! Don't post the answers! That spoils the fun. I just lost again on number 91. rhymeswithlibrarian, for #59, just click like heck, fast as you can, on the big guy. :) The laser you're...

  21. Mental Health Help!!!

    cherrybreeze replied to NursgStudent4Life's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't seen the movie, so I'm only going on what you said. Could PTSD apply, after the

  22. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    Look for what the true answer to the question is. It's there, just not where you might think. :) Let me know if this helps, I'll say more if

  23. Co-Worker not smelling so good

    cherrybreeze replied to RelloydRN's topic in General Nursing

    My ex was VERY anti-bodywash, even those marketed towards men. He said they left a "film" on his skin. Hm, OK. Plain old bar soap, but at least he did it daily, right? I, on the other hand, hate...

  24. Co-Worker not smelling so good

    cherrybreeze replied to RelloydRN's topic in General Nursing

    LOL!

  25. The Impossible Quiz

    cherrybreeze replied to cherrybreeze's topic in General Nursing

    It's ok, NurseAdida, it took me forever when I first found it to get off the first question, then forever to get past #4. :) Some of the answers I got purely by guessing, but have tried to make sure...
