    What caught your attention in the world today?

    subee replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It always amazes me how long it takes simple ideas to percolate to the top. We have used a clotting powder in the OR for years but to impregnate an even better clotter into gauze is brilliant. In...

    As a former Mississippian, the elected morons are more interested in maintaining the 1950's and promoting policies that perpetuate poverty. Lots of towns have plenty of POC in local office, but the...

    The Collapsing Healthcare System in the US

    subee replied to KalipsoRed21's topic in General Nursing

    I worked with a doc who immigrated here while her sister chose to go to Toronto. She told me that her sister thought nothing of having an MRI scheduled for 4am because they want expensive technology...

    Phasing Out ADN?

    subee replied to Candi Williams's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't discourage anyone who could afford to go to a direct entry program for a BSN not to do that. There are markets where your mobility would be limited without it. I already had a BA before...

    Georgia law prohibits DNPs from using the term "doctor"

    subee replied to klone's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It's just status manipulation. When everyone needs to get a practice doctorate, they just dumb it down so that they can charge more tuition to more people. I could understand if someone wanted to...

    President Biden thread

    subee replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    The Daily Mail and Fox News may consider it newsworthy but I don't since we know nothing about the authencity of these photographs. It's more like the quality of celebrity plastic surgery before...

    subee replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It's just a photograph in a random tweet, not a news photo nor an official photo. The Daily Mail is opining about this? I have a family member photographer at the Getty. I'll ask him if it's...

    IMHO, the GOP is so dysfunctional with theirs loopy beer brawls, Trump will lose again. Our bright spot is Alyssa Slotkin is running for US Senate. She is a patriot in the best sense of the word...

    We only hear about the worst of Christians in the political news so it's refreshing to find one with a sense of humor. But I hope that he doesn't become so cynical to forget that there are churches...

    subee replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    She's no moderate. She signed a harsh anti abortion bill while she was governor. Her only true stance is as an apologist for the fringe of the right. I believe she doesn't know what she...

    ICU ACNP to CRNA?

    subee replied to FiremedicMike's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That's quite a chunk of change to lay out for school for a retirement career. We're talking six figures for school and you won't have time to work. The ANCP won't help you and would also be...

    If there were an honest conservative, Republican running, they would be crucified by their own party. It appears that there isn't enough decent amongst them to support the anti-Trump. Look at what...

    It reflects that the handbasket to hell has overcome the speed of gravity and it falling faster than 32 feet per second/per second. It will probably land on a forest

    Home Health Nurses Beware: Docking PTO for Missing Productivity Targets is Legal

    subee replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Nursing News

    That's a tough thing to measure and I that takes some time away for patient care which doesn't help. Having said that , the best floor job I ever had was in a hospital that did just that. No one got...

    Can hospitals require you to do "extra" on-call shifts?

    subee replied to Overtime Mom's topic in General Nursing

    If you are on back-up call and you are never called in, do you expect to be paid your regular hourly rate? My group gave it a fun twist - double or nothing. First call was in-house. You are paid...

    Georgia law prohibits DNPs from using the term "doctor"

    subee replied to klone's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Students understand who their professor is. There is only one in a class. But patients are subject to being pokes and prodded by a multitide of initials and I think if we want to remain as the most...

    Is it competent for McConnell to decide to stay which is what he is doing? To me, it's worth it not to have a Republican assigned to fill her seat on the Judiciary Committee (Jim Jordan anyone?)...

    I will interject here to say that the protoplasm we bring to providers contributes to the health statistics. I think you and Asystole are talking about two different things. The poorest southern...
