    Possible ethical question about Clinical experience...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Studying24.7's topic in General Students

    No, she suggested filing a complaint with the hospital in her first reply,That is what I was referring to. I was the one that mentioned in my earlier post that, if something made her feel that...

    Possible ethical question about Clinical experience...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Studying24.7's topic in General Students

    Non ICU nurses do this same thing I bolded, I am very sorry about your father. It doesn't appear there was an incident at all here though. Nothing was done wrong, the patient was cared for and no...

    Possible ethical question about Clinical experience...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Studying24.7's topic in General Students

    A patients visitors talking to the nurse can pose a distraction as well. Should the nurse not talk to anyone other then the patient, that way their full attention is always on the patient? I mean it...

    Am I a chump in nursing?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to swan9144's topic in General Nursing

    It seems reasonable to me that someone with 2 more years experience would make a dollar more then you. Maybe even more. Our hospital does pay increases twice I year I think it was, for critical to...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to NurseNinaFla's topic in General Nursing

    No worries, this hasn't happened to me yet in Clinicals and I don't do anything new that I am unsure of without running it through with my nurse before hand or instructor or observing. I am someone...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    This is a HUGE one on my list. I mean seriously, it's like people act like they are FORCED to be there and can't stand it. Dude, if you can't stand it this much, DROP OUT and give your place to...

    Possible ethical question about Clinical experience...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Studying24.7's topic in General Students

    Believe me, I completely understand the dilemma. I had a problem with my co nurse my first night of clinical, well not WITH her but with how she was providing care, I did talk to my CI instructor and...

    Possible ethical question about Clinical experience...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Studying24.7's topic in General Students

    You leave it alone, you are a student and you take your experience and learn what to do or what NOT to do. But to go behind your co nurses back when she did not directly endanger the patient (you said...

    Nurses who can't spell

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to alex08's topic in General Students

    My thoughts, In nursing school, they're things that are far more important then someone's spelling and grammar errors on a message board. I have no doubt I had many errors in that above sentence,...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to K nurse-one-day's topic in General Students

    This would be an implication "You have chosen the correct title!" Really the passive-aggressive posts aren't necessary. It's obvious what you are doing in here based off your other thread that was...

    Have you ever cheated?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to JustYouWait's topic in General Students

    Just because someone hasn't cheated doesn't mean they must be lying because others feel guilty about their cheating. I admitted that in my teens in JHS or HS I have copied HW, shoot I even forged my...
