  1. Prevalence of Christians in the field of nursing

    exit96 replied to FSUNurse2b's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I hope my reply didn't come off as "cold." And yes, some folks are just jerks, and hurt their own argument by their lack of tact in presenting their views. I guess I am just urging caution in...

  2. Prevalence of Christians in the field of nursing

    exit96 replied to FSUNurse2b's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    We would need a working definition of "Christian" before we could do any studies. I work with and know many wonderful people, and I do not know the spiritual belief of many of them....why should that...

  3. Question for atheist nurses

    exit96 replied to pre-nurseshan's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I believe the term "spirituality" has lost it's definition over time. Ask 100 people and you will get 100 different

  5. Coping Mechanisms- How do you cope?

    exit96 replied to dstevens25's topic in Men in Nursing

    It is presupposed that all the forums are for females, that is why there is a "men in nursing" forum...for us. The stereotypes never

  7. Schedule

    exit96 replied to exit96's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly, I am accustomed to a 6 week schedule being presented in printed form 2 weeks prior to starting. Then from there is is up to the Nurses to put in a "switch" form for approval. I use google...

    exit96 replied to exit96's topic in General Nursing

    Biff, I am not new to the health care, CNA, LPN, RN world. Really? Is this common practice where you

  9. 1st contract after "right to work" legislation

    exit96 posted a topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    For any of you that have been through this, what, in a general sense can I expect to see? I just took a transfer to another facility for E.D. and it is contract time in June. Michigan just passed the...

    exit96 posted a topic in Men in Nursing

  12. Seriously?!?!

    exit96 replied to emtb2rn's topic in Emergency

    Pt and family came to ED in a panic, arm wrapped in dirty towel, cc of knife lac and "blood everywhere at home." When we finally got the "Deliverance family" to show us the arm, I had to look around...

  13. Thoughts on starting off in the ER as a new grad?

    exit96 replied to MSNrunner's topic in Emergency

    Hard for metro comment on this. I have been orienting in ER and am on my 7th week, this will be my final week, which I am ready for. From posts I have read on this site people have graduated and went...

  14. Losing respect for nursing students

    exit96 replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    Could be an isolated incident, but I don't think so. Just look at our cultural changes over the past 20 years even. Respect by the young has eroded to the point of them being just plain offensive. For...

  21. Working 2 jobs both ER RN, crazy or do-able ?

    exit96 replied to Nursingluv101's topic in Emergency

    That is the HOPE, that they would raise wages. I work at a facility that has a new contract coming up in June. When they were "courting" me their sales point was that," management knows we need to...

  22. Coworker having access to my password and charting

    exit96 replied to CorinneRN's topic in General Nursing

    And, I know of a manager that was "watching" (one of her not so favorite nurses pt charts) and told the nurse that she better not forget to do this and that!!!!

    exit96 replied to CorinneRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know how this fits in but, we use EPIC, we have hard wired PC's at the nurse station and WOW's in the room. We have Onesign- we just badge in on any PC and it brings up up at whatever screen...
