  1. What is the answer to this crazy question?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to peaceful's topic in General Nursing

  3. Please help me understand/Domestic Violence Question

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to Bipley's topic in General Nursing

    I'll try to find the exact statistics for you (and some literature to read) but I'll tell you now it's because they fear for their lives. More women get killed by their abusive partner AFTER they...

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to MQ Edna's topic in General Nursing

  5. baptizing a patient???

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to mtnmom's topic in General Nursing

    As a quaker, I certainly would not baptize anyone as I don't see the point in it or anything ceremonial or symbolic, really. I would however try my hardest to find a priest or someone comfortable...

  9. Watch Your Language - Breast Isn't Best!

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to FrumDoula's topic in Ob/Gyn

    "STUDIES SHOW"! Would someone mind telling me where I can actually find 'THE STUDIES' that supposedly prove that breastfeeding produces smarter and healthier

  10. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    Have YOU ever been severely dehydrated? I have! It makes you continually nauseated and your skin even hurts. I sure as heck don't want to die that

  11. What did I do wrong here?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to SunnyKC's topic in Emergency

    Wether or not sunnykc is a nurse does not matter. A question was asked and we should be kind enough to answer. To answer your question, you did NOTHING wrong. Walking into a busy ED sometimes feels...

  12. Do I Have To Be A Brainiac To Get Thru Crna School?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to SKYSTHELIMIT's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Well, by reading these posts I believe your question got answered. You do NOT need to be a brainiac to be a CRNA.

  13. What is your hospital's policy on supplemental feeding?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to cabbage patch rn's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Golly! I guess I'm just one of the lucky ones. I raised 2 babies on formula(not babies anymore, they're 19 and 15). Both healthy as horses and quite intelligent. Both received perfect attendance...

  14. What is your hospital's policy on supplemental feeding?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to cabbage patch rn's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I have never been able to figure out what the big deal about breastfeeding is all about anyway. There are claims that it is healthier for the baby but I certainly haven't seen any proof of that given...

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to Jo Anne -OLD's topic in General Nursing

    A patient once thought I was a CNA because I answered her call light and took her to the bathroom. When I told her I was the house supervisor, she was surprised and said an RN had never taken her to...

  16. Addressing doctors by their first names

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to trauma_junkie1's topic in General Nursing

    It's the same way where I work. We're expected to call them 'doctor' and last name. I don't mind though. However, there are one or two that I would like to address by another name.

  17. two out of three American adults think health care coverage should be a "guarantee"

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Wether you agree or not is beside the point. Self-employed families can't afford to pay 1000.00 dollar a month premiums. It's going to come to national health care because there is no other choice....

  18. My experience in the ER- long rant-sorry

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to BuffaloLPN's topic in General Nursing

    I would write a letter to the ER manager and explain the situation. If they're neglecting your husband, I'm sure they're neglecting others. Is this a JCAHO accredited hospital? They could get in big...

  21. Gandi's quote: what do y'all think?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to susanna's topic in General Nursing

    I think the phrase describes co-dependency perfectly. I think if you lose yourself in the service of others, you will lose yourself

  22. Overuse of opiates?? Opinions?

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to NiteShiftNut's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I believe it is OUR problem. It is societies problem as well. I'll tell you why it bothers me to dope up our drug seekers. First of all, many if not most of them are unemployed. Most are usually...

    RN Rotten Nurse replied to fairyprincess2003's topic in General Nursing

    What really needs to be discussed with her is birth control! Have you talked to her about tubal ligation? the pill? the shot? Try to reach her with those things then maybe you won't even need to...
