Zoloft and Lortab....for me, of course!!!

Don't care about that other stuff....meanwhile...I'd like to have an open bar should I be admitted to a hospital!!*wine

you forgot to say "hope you enjoyed your stay and have a nice day"!

A lot of older nurses I work with talk a lot about "how things used to be"....but what really sticks out in my mind is the times they've told me how nursing management would actually have their backs instead of being "the enemy". I don't know...the m...

I'm so glad I found a part-time gig doing home health...actually it found me!! My last day at the LTC facility I'd been working at for a few years was last Tuesday. One of the reasons I left was because of how administration treats staff. I coped by ...

Aaahh...let's see...seroquel, risperdal, ativan, prolixin, and haldol.

When it's chili night.....

You took my post all wrong. I meant whether or not nurses whom have dealt with this have anything scientifically "interesting" about this subject. Get off your high horse. I'm 29 and went through total ovarian failure at 25. I cannot have children wi...

I can pick my nose on my break if I want to!!!!

I see nothing wrong with it....it's actually kinda cute!!! Pet nurse!!! Since I think most of the general population are ignorant gits....I think I may have found my "calling"!!!

Oh, wow!!! Come on Management.....let's go for maximum impact and really get the peons to listen.....send their lowly ***** to the gulag!!!

Oh, here we go again....you work in a different specialty, yes, of course, the "critical thinking" will need to be there, but have you worked in a LTC? Different specialty and different skill-set required.

While your post does have some merit, especially when it comes to certain policies in a SNF, but you are very insulting to us LPN/LVN's who go to work everyday and take excellent care of patients. Believe it or not....there's a few of us who "can thi...

You definitely are in management.

I have only taken the flu shot twice in my life and both times I became very sick from it. The first time I thought it was a mere coincidence, but it happened again the second time.....I have since refused it. I practice meticulous hygiene at home an...

I absolutely will not deal with glass eyes, dentures, and my facility's management.

As I've mentioned in similar posts.....be choosy on whom you decide to befriend in the workplace. Only befriend them if they have shown you that they are trustworthy, and that can take months...if not years. I have coworkers who I can say I'm friends...

You need to apply where I work at. You would get ample opportunity to flex your "firing" muscles. Out of curiousity....do you really give a **** about the bonuses and promotions your boss gets?

Aaahh....you're reading our minds!!!! They only want enough help when it is expedient for them to do so!!! The patients are very rarely factored, but state inspections, JCAHO, etc. are.

I have arthritis in my hands....I'm only 28!! However, nursing may not have anything to do with it. I try to take care of myself first. I would be of no use to anyone all broken down.

I don't get thanked at work. The management's attitude is "why would we thank you for doing your job"? One of the CNA's asked the Administrator as to why we don't get pizza ordered for us, and the Administrator curtly told her that the only thing tha...

"Bad news everyone, we cannot do anything for nurse's week this year because it is not in the budget". "However, I'd like to ask all of you if you could donate even a dollar for the Administrator's "going away" gift since he's leaving in a month".......

Even though it may be out of your "comfort zone"...I think you should talk to her. When I first started working as a nurse, I had to have several talking-to's with more experienced nurses who tried to give me a hard time. Advocate for yourself.

At the facility I work for....it is the opposite. They can't seem to recruit or retain people to work the dayshift.....nobody wants to be around the megalomaniac management. The NOC shift has a huge waiting list for those wishing to go to nights. So,...

When are we paid?
