  2. Verbal warning about sick calls.....please advise

    roser13 replied to SaffireWeldon's topic in Canada

    I was recently put on a warning due to 4 "excused" absences within a 12-month period. Each and every instance was either a critical illness or accident (fractured bones, torn tendons). I've been...

  3. Verbal warning about sick calls.....please advise

    roser13 replied to SaffireWeldon's topic in Canada

  4. We were all wrong about nursing home nurses

    roser13 replied to Ruger8mm's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  6. I want to quit ICU after one week.

    roser13 replied to Lady4Scrubs's topic in Critical Care

    roser13 replied to remotefuse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  11. We were all wrong about nursing home nurses

    roser13 replied to Ruger8mm's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  14. From a RD to RN

    roser13 replied to Becca014's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know much about the educational process for an RD, but I doubt that it will be an "easy transition." Nursing school is rarely considered easy. I think the transition will be the same for you...

  15. Should we put up with verbally aggressive relatives ?

    roser13 replied to Charlottemay's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    roser13 replied to remotefuse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Word to the wise: Take the use of the phrase Nurses Eat Their Young (NETY) out of your vocabulary now. Just do it. You can thank me later. And has been mentioned multiple times on this thread...

  20. Have you met your husband at nursing? Is nursing a good career to meet men?

    roser13 replied to Upward_Bound's topic in General Nursing

    Given the massively small women to men ratio in nursing (500:1 would not be an exaggeration), I cannot imagine any woman hoping/expecting to meet a male nurse and become romantically involved. As far...

    roser13 replied to remotefuse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations
