    Pity Party - US Hospitals Hit With Nurse Staffing Crisis Amid COVID

    JKL33 replied to JKL33's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I sincerely believe it's their mindset, which is toxic. They are looking for people to abuse. A nurse just sitting out in the community not crying him/herself to sleep at night due to exhaustion or...

    Pushed by quacks, use of Ivermectin is poisoning people

    JKL33 replied to nursej22's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Where is this happening? ETA: Disclosing my position--I'm sure someone has done it. I'd like to get an idea how big a problem it is since there have been at least a couple of major claims about...

    First Few Weeks on Unit and Feeling Overwhelmed

    JKL33 replied to BDluvsNursing's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Let us know how things are going for you during orientation @BDluvsNursing! I'm confident you will be able to do this. You sound like a conscientious person and that will work in your favor....

    Which position would be better?

    JKL33 replied to RatherBHiking's topic in General Nursing

    Ditto. Sometimes I think yelling refers to not having properly walked on eggshells when speaking to a nurse. Kind of my thought, too. Not sure but this sounds like a move from...

    Nurse Manager confronting me about going to the bathroom with a needle.

    JKL33 replied to iorgins's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Don't you think their inquiry was reasonable? I'm sorry you didn't foresee this happening; it would have been reasonable to assume that if anyone noticed the situation then this is exactly what...

    Was I in the Right Here?

    JKL33 replied to Grande_latte04's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you. It was a pretty interesting experience and I learned a lot, actually. I ended up taking care of that patient quite a bit over time. Once you can establish some kind of genuine trust...

    Was I in the Right Here?

    JKL33 replied to Grande_latte04's topic in General Nursing

    I remember an occasion where I was assigned a particularly bad situation with an abusive patient. My tack was to go in and introduce myself in a generally-kind and professional manner. I said I...

    Intermittent Fasting: Just Another Diet Trend or a Solution for Improving Health?

    JKL33 replied to julieotoole's topic in General Nursing

    I fall into this by default and basically don't know anything about IF. The amount of calories I eat per day, which is a healthy allowance for my sex/age/wt/ht, means that if I eat both breakfast...

    Was I in the Right Here?

    JKL33 replied to Grande_latte04's topic in General Nursing

    I will agree with those saying there was a delay that could be argued should not have happened. I have had similar situations many times. I do everything in my power to show up with the med when...

    Harassment/Bullying

    JKL33 replied to Melissa Basney's topic in General Nursing

    Hello, No I don't think you should. As you move in to a professional role you will want to use judgment about getting involved in drama online or in real life. If you can't resist many...

    The US is Officially Nuts: Judges now telling hospitals how to treat COVID patients

    JKL33 replied to Anonymous865's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Not the least of the problems here is that as far as I can tell this order was made based on reports from the wife (who appears to believe that ETT goes in the esophagus). There is nothing stating...

    The US is Officially Nuts: Judges now telling hospitals how to treat COVID patients

    JKL33 replied to Anonymous865's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I think Muno's comment and my reaction were about the complaint stating that the ET tube was supposedly yanked out of the esophagus. ? I do certainly agree about things that happen when...

    There is a decent chance they would succeed in that. As it is, I have personally seen physicians reject court orders in other circumstances, especially orders to perform certain physical...

    Medical Board Says, "Stop Issuing Bogus Mask Exemptions to Students"

    JKL33 replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I stand corrected. I indeed did suspect your motives in claiming that you would love to answer my question but just couldn't because doing so would be off-topic. I admit that I think you used the...

    How do you handle difficult team members?

    JKL33 replied to lexieanders's topic in General Nursing

    Interesting. I haven't participated in a set-up like that. It doesn't sound like a great practice or a necessary one, but then I don't know what the specific philosophy or motivation was behind it....

    I don't know your motivations and made no such implication. You are the one who made the snarky comment suggesting that you and I would be in disagreement. I asked what you meant by that and you sunk...

    Thank you for providing clarification. You have quotation marks around the words "Christian love," [which could be taken to mean that she is not demonstrating such or that it doesn't exist or...
