  1. Too much estrogen! Women! Ahh!

    dnp2004 replied to ZanatuBelmont's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Based on what you originally posted, I must say she is emotionally unstable, immature and can't take a joke. That drama queen is not worth apologizing to because you did nothing wrong. I can't...

  3. This nurse is an unlucky patient!

    dnp2004 replied to sissiesmama's topic in General Nursing

    I would hate to see what would happen if you were a regular patient!!! You would be another casualty surrounding this 38 year WAR ON

  4. I think peri/rectal swabs are a humiliating 'welcome' to the hospital

    dnp2004 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    So let me get this straight; doctor, nurses, and other healthcare workers who routinely come in contact with scores of patients are not routinely tested?! This has to be an Aprils Fools

  5. How do you deal with an insensitive CNA?

    dnp2004 replied to arelle68's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    ????????????? Could you please explain why you feel she should not be fired for this type of behavior directed at the elderly patient? Do you think we are too quick to fire the CNA in

    dnp2004 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

  10. Non-religious nurses/students

    dnp2004 replied to greenfaery's topic in General Students

    In the State I am in this rarely comes up. I can't remember the last time a patient tried to convert a caretaker. Most people view this as inappropiate behavior. We have been taught to stay away...

  11. Fine line of abuse

    dnp2004 replied to RNMariposa's topic in General Nursing

    I am from a military background. Nurses are respected officers that don't take abuse. "Frustration" and "acting out" were not valid excuses for abusive behavior nor should they ever be. In the...

  12. Male Foley...Wife Watching!!

    dnp2004 replied to mrscoozy's topic in General Nursing

    Don't let the age of the patient influence/prejudice you. If the patient and spouse are in their 80's or 30's treat them the same. Did you get the impression that the husband was uncomfortable having...

    dnp2004 replied to justanewcomer's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for your response Cul2. Actually I wonder how long I will be allowed to be on this website. I don't think I am liked that well. I think part of the problem is the way I communicate. You...

  14. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Mom-of-3 and MCS1505 I have a question for you. Would you have the same level of apprehensive about providing "intimate" care (foley, pericare, etc.) to male or lesbian patients as you do if they are...

  15. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    psychRNinNY, Could you imagine what would happen if gay and lesbian patients decided that since they had negative experiences in the past with straight people, they started requesting gay only-same...

  16. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yes, I have seen many tortured people in the various countries I have worked in. Another possible is that the man may have been actually tortured by female interrogators. Many countries including...

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

  18. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I was wondering that as well. I had problems communicating with him because he was in a great deal of pain and spoke very broken English. I could tell that he was not able to urinate and was very...

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

  20. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    LovebugLPN, of course she has the right to request another nurse. Administration may not be able to honor the request even if they want to. How would the sexual status of a replacement nurse be...

  21. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Of course I have the right. Think about this sexual orientation request for moment. You would be asking me to remove lesbians from your proximity. Comfort level? How could I determine who is a...

  22. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    AudreyHurston I have had many gay and lesbian providers working for me in capacities ranging from C.N.A. to specialty department head and I can tell you that I have had very, very few sexual...

  23. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You would be in your rights to request a heterosexual female nurse. The facility would be in their rights to deny the request or any other request based on orientation, gender, race, ethnicity,...

    dnp2004 replied to RochesterRN-BSN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    when you investigate "compaints," all you will see is the negative. generally adequate or superior care is not 'reported.' the reality is that healthcare delivery in socialized systems is no better...

  25. Lesbian L and D nurse

    dnp2004 replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    It is probably a mute point because you and the hospital management would unlikely know if a particular health care professional was gay, lesbian, bisexual, monogamous, polygamous, etc. I am not sure...
