  1. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    What about when they have $60,000+ debt to pay off for their undergrad? What about when they have mortgages and kids and bills? You think a lot of nurses aren't leaving nursing because they love the...

  2. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Brandon, I hate to disagree. High admiration as respect is earned. Sincere courtesy requires respect; that is, respect in the sense of reverence for life, reverence for others. Courtesy may be...

  3. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Personally I agree that everyone needs the gracious extension of respect. Now I may not respect them to the point of honor--as in that given to a mentor. There are degrees of respect I think; but...

  4. Failed Assessment test

    Guest343211 replied to nightnurse279's topic in Western Governors University

    So love Khan Academy. OP, try the book below for starters. . .it's modulated--self-working program, which gives you immediate feedback. I use this for pre-nursing-prep for teaching at the college....

  5. Failed Assessment test

    Guest343211 replied to nightnurse279's topic in Western Governors University

    Try not to get down. The math required for nursing school for med calcs, even chem (gen) and stats, it really is pretty simply, and you can whip yourself into shape on it in no time. Get some good...

  6. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am just wondering if this will turn into an epic

  7. Need help. How do I sound the politest way possible?

    Guest343211 replied to NursingBro's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    But as you take the six patients, you will still be on orientation, so you will still have back-up/support/precepting, or no? If yes, it's fine. You may fee frazzled, but you can get through it. If...

  8. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Overall though, you have to admit that this thread is a hoot. The generally mentality of superficiality more than suggests that nursing is NOT truly considered or even thinks of itself (at least not...

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Alrighty then. As you like

  10. Mass exodus of staff

    Guest343211 replied to beeker's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think we will be seeing more of this as the economy continues in the toilet--and as we approach inevitable

  11. Would Like Input - CABG

    Guest343211 replied to NickiJules's topic in General Nursing

    Looking at outcomes is part of learning. Again, some degree of the use of HIPAA is just reactionary. I'm not gonna wrestle anyone over though--I just think it a sad think that people can't learn. In...

  12. Would Like Input - CABG

    Guest343211 replied to NickiJules's topic in General Nursing

    Wondering the same thing

  13. Would Like Input - CABG

    Guest343211 replied to NickiJules's topic in General Nursing

    No doubt pulmonary is on the case now. I have seen patient's get extubated way off of typical schedule, but it all depends on what is going on with

  14. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    OK, honestly, do you usually write all that alphabet soup after your name? Seriously. .

  15. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You pretty much have to hire straight from the early elementary grades to get this anymore. Sad

  16. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    But I don't know if it's all in anyone's head. It is the way of the world right now. They are cheaper than more experienced nurses, and I can see commuter's point. More proof that nursing is NOT...

  17. Would Like Input - CABG

    Guest343211 replied to NickiJules's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, people and places are so reactionary. You used to be able to learn a lot re: your patients for the sake of learning. But you know, there are idiots that can't just take the information...

  18. First travel offer, is it good enough???

    Guest343211 replied to bobs201's topic in Travel

    No offense, but I would not accept that amount. It's too low in my opinion. Darn, $800 per week divided by 36 hours is $22/ hour. Ouch! Housing stipend should be calculated separately from earnings...

  19. Why Do People Bully Me?

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Seriously, this happens a lot. People get an attitude with those that are attractive and hot. Especially if they get the attention of males in the crowd. I'm not saying it always happens, but I have...

  20. How do experienced nurses do it to memorize everything?

    Guest343211 replied to NursingBro's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Got it. Her name is Esme12. She's a mod here, and I've seen her post some really sweet "helps" sheets more than a couple of times. Ooops! LOL I scrolled back and saw that she already beat me...

  21. How do experienced nurses do it to memorize everything?

    Guest343211 replied to NursingBro's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Also, there is a moderator on this site that has some great report and organizational sheets for new nurses. She's really nice, but I'm fried and I can't rember her name right now. I'll think of

  22. How do experienced nurses do it to memorize everything?

    Guest343211 replied to NursingBro's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    It's about experience. In due time, a lot of it will become like second nature to you. There is NO rushing it. There is only learning well, one step at a time. What I liked was looking for...

  23. Why Do People Bully Me?

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Even if you are calm, with certain people, if you confront directly, and you haven't fully assessed their MO, they can turn it into you being "confrontational and argumentative," and feed that or...

  24. Why Do People Bully Me?

    Guest343211 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think there are some good points put forth OP. I must, however, state that in general, it's based on oversimplification of a problem many times. Many people that are bullied are quite often not...

  25. Delayed Sternal Closure?

    Guest343211 replied to TX911's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    That too will depend on what's going on and the particular surgeon's
