  1. Does the term 'Nurse' bother you?

    Kabin replied to Ekklesia's topic in Men in Nursing

    I have a few ideas if anyone wants to help write a paper on the topic and, if we're unlucky enough, present it

  2. Does the term 'Nurse' bother you?

    Kabin replied to Ekklesia's topic in Men in Nursing

    Should a CNA, LPN, RN, NP all be called nurse? I think not. There needs to be some brain power to decide how to divide and label the many levels of nursing. And while they are at it, why not come up...

  3. I don't know about you guys, but I'm not liking the way I feel.

    Kabin replied to NurseDaddy2006's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Yes, nursing school gets to be a grind but we need to remember that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes it's hard to remember to take care of ourselves when we are so busy studying....

  4. Drug addicted nurses

    Kabin replied to ske0124's topic in Nurses Recovery

    From what I've heard, it's considered a disability and so it's legally difficult to fire someone on the first

  5. Drug addicted nurses

    Kabin replied to ske0124's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Some states allow them to work with restricted drug access as well as attend rehab

  6. Paplating & Cold Hands

    Kabin replied to Kabin's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thanks, I'll use that one next time they razz me!

  7. What are the BEST and WORST States to practice as an NP?

    Kabin replied to Roland's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sure would be nice to find an up to date list of NP priviledges in all

  8. decorticate, decerebate keeping them straight

    Kabin replied to Tiny1Nisolet's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    The more silly the better to remember. I always remembered decorticate by an arm hug during a “courting”

  9. House, MD last night.....AAAGH!

    Kabin replied to SteveNNP's topic in General Nursing

    And the one young attractive female doctor finds him desireable. The writers really pile it on

  10. House, MD last night.....AAAGH!

    Kabin replied to SteveNNP's topic in General Nursing

    I loved the motorcycle scene. But that's just cause I like motorcycles.

  11. Drug addicted nurses

    Kabin replied to ske0124's topic in Nurses Recovery

    We studied the topic two weeks ago and the numbers are staggering. They say about 17% of nurses fall into the category. Our 30ish instructor had several personal stories of co-workers and even one...

  12. I am in hell

    Kabin replied to CANewRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I think I tried to personalize it and explain why I wanted to be a nurse, but then again, I didn't get a high score on it. I did in the 30 minute timeframe so I did a quick and dirty scratch paper...

  13. I am in hell

    Kabin replied to CANewRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It's ridiculous that a school that large can't grow the nursing student population. Unfortunately ASU College of Nursing as we now know it will always be behind the demand curve. Its big and...

  14. Official Source for Patient to Nurse Boundaries?

    Kabin posted a topic in General Nursing

    Being that the ANA is projecting nursing as a professional career, it would seem the nursing to patient boundary issue would be clearly stated somewhere. Does anyone know a source that clearly defines...

  15. Official Source for Patient to Nurse Boundaries?

    Kabin replied to Kabin's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the input. It's amazing how loosely defined the topic is. Paragraph 2.4 of the ANA Code of Ethics says "the nurse recognizes and mantain boundaries that establish appropriate limits" but...

  16. New MCC RN program

    Kabin replied to PhoenixGirl's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi Calzonan, Sorry, I don't recall the details. Her name is Anne McNamara and she was very nice. I'm sure she wouldn't mind if you were to email the question. I think she's also a VP in the AZ...

  17. New MCC RN program

    Kabin replied to PhoenixGirl's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The other week we had the Dean of Rio Salado come out to talk and she says Rio will be ramping up their nursing enrollment

  18. Religion Needed to be a Good Nurse?

    Kabin replied to Kabin's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I can't argue with

  19. Religion Needed to be a Good Nurse?

    Kabin replied to Kabin's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Thanks everyone's input, it's nice to hear the views of the working class. :) I just checked the Nursing Code of Ethics and paragraph 1.2 says "An individual's lifestyle, value system and religious...

  20. Religion Needed to be a Good Nurse?

    Kabin replied to Kabin's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    As I said before, I'm not spiritual, I've tried the magical thought/lifestyle change and it wasn't logical for me. And there's no misunderstanding on my part as I questioned the instructor numerous...

  21. WANT TO RENT A HOUSE in AZ

    Kabin replied to madwife2002's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Anthem is nice. Just need to work around the Friday daytime rush north to get out of town and the all day Sunday rush to return. The two lane I-17 just doen't seem to handle the flow very

  24. New male thinking about nursing

    Kabin replied to 2bnurseguy_2005's topic in Men in Nursing

    I googled "Drug ATM" and there were several sources. Here's one of them: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05285/587250.stm I had a chance to listen to a medical futurist speak at my school last year and...

    I had a buddy that was considering crossing over to pharmD from law. At that point I also started thinking about pharmD and came to the conlcusion that many of their clerk like jobs could be...
