    How do you keep awake on a slow night shift?

    netglow replied to TylerDurdenRN's topic in General Nursing

    Or... you could find the type of 3x3 Post-it notes that have that accordian design to stick each sheet to the next, and set up a "set of stairs" for your post it note pad to climb down... like a...

    Should you admit you made a mistake when it could affect student success

    netglow replied to vlr1445's topic in General Nursing

    Well, it looks like there are a few ways we are reading this post. I took it to say the OP is faculty, and the OP made an error that impacted a student in a way that will prevent this student from...

    Should you admit you made a mistake when it could affect student success

    netglow replied to vlr1445's topic in General Nursing

    I just don't care about the nursing duty/ethical connection at all. It simply doesn't enter into it. IF, you will in effect - screw someone out of a lot of money, give them emotional upset, and cause...

    Pressing charges on a psych patient?

    I agree with everybody else. Watch this psych patient decides to start saying you did all manner of things to him/her and reports you. There was a thread with this scenario a little while back where...

    netglow replied to proudmommy's topic in General Nursing

    With this economy for nurses, it doesn't matter what you have. A previous poster advised to get into nursing as soon as you can?! Why? I'd advise to wait, and not enter nursing school until things...

    I'm thinking about dropping out of nursing school...?

    netglow replied to tatempole's topic in General Nursing

    IMHO, drop nursing. Put your emphasis where you can work and build a career. In a few years if the yearning is still there, and the economy changes, then go the nursing track. Most importantly, pay...

    netglow replied to Darknights's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, you and me. I immediately couldn't breathe, I saw the nurse move away from me about 10 feet and go sitdown with her back to me. Tears were running down my face as I couldn't so much as blink, I...

    netglow replied to Beachbum2010's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'd suggest everybody search the web for their state's forms and explanations for DNR, and advanced directives. It's easy information available for the public and very much in detail for my state at...

    CABG tips?

    netglow replied to Rise Against's topic in General Nursing

    It's stress. Stress messes with blood sugar. CABG, if open and bypass especially, is very, very stressful to go through. This stress can shoot your sugar up. Best for you to have it managed in order...

    Babylady, in response to your eyerolling, I posted because hospice deals with DNR often (I guess I need to throw in an FYI too). I offered some situations in order to help you understand because you...

    I know a NP that works in one of the drugstore chain health clinics. She has quite a following. People love her and have high confidence in her. While I was waiting to see her myself, the others...

    Am I trying to do too much?

    netglow replied to Daisy_08's topic in General Nursing

    I'd add that although you are interested in Palcare, I'd slow down a bit. If you have lots of extra cash burning your pants up, then go ahead. But you really should be sure you have lots of cash to...

    Pt choking and DNR....

    netglow replied to Beachbum2010's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Also, if you read up on hospice, there is clarity to this. But, hospice can flex as well. As mentioned you can have hospice and no DNR. And, you can keep DNR during surgery. "Full Code. The choking is...
