  1. Works Bomb???

    2BSure replied to GGT1's topic in Emergency

    Their mothers must be so

  2. Volunteering at a hospital - best experience for a pre-nursing student?

    2BSure replied to mrsrlg's topic in General Nursing

    I don't wish to seriously offend you. I am sure you are very capable but I cannot imagine that you should be turning patients for exams and such. Even if it were technically OK...which sounds like...

  3. Background Check problem & worried

    2BSure replied to annasmomlisa's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I know what you mean about the laws and employers not being able to hold certain things against people. However, I do know from the UK, that when it comes to healthcare workers (or even clerical...

  4. Background Check problem & worried

    2BSure replied to annasmomlisa's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Again I feel like I am peeing on your Cheerios but that is a bit of a contradictory statement. No contest essentially allows you to discuss mitigating circumstances with a judge and negotiate a kind...

  5. Extra pay for charge?

    2BSure replied to Jules A's topic in General Nursing

    Good job you aren't in it for the

  6. Volunteering at a hospital - best experience for a pre-nursing student?

    2BSure replied to mrsrlg's topic in General Nursing

    The only patient contact you will or should get as a volunteer will be verbal. Even then you need to have big boundaries because if they ask you a question (about their condition, admission,...

  7. Background Check problem & worried

    2BSure replied to annasmomlisa's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I am not trying to be difficult but if you were "cleared" how did they oblige you to do anger management and community service? Were the charges reduced? Also, you need to carefully look into this in...

  8. Would you use a cell phone at work? Do you need a cell phone at work?

    2BSure replied to 2BSure's topic in General Nursing

    I do have a vague recollection of hearing someone say their facility did not use or permit personal ones on the floor because of concerns with patient confidentiality -- however I think they were more...

  9. Incident Reports and Staff

    2BSure replied to drknyko's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Steady on! First you sound quite upset and I understand that. This stuff can be very distressing. Make sure they are clear about what they think you are responsible for. The fall? Clearly not....

  10. Vent: Embarrassed during change of shift.

    2BSure replied to Spritenurse1210's topic in General Nursing

    I am so sorry that you feel embarrassed by this when in fact the other nurse should feel mortified. Quite horrifying and inappropriate doesn't even begin to cover it. My knee jerk reaction is that...

  11. MRSA in sputum and open door?

    2BSure replied to NurseyTonyaLPN's topic in Agency Nurses

    I have cared for respiratory MRSA patients and been a respiratory MRSA patient myself (no I didn't get it from work I am not inept). In answer to the question "does it colonize" yes it does. An...

  12. you CANNOT eat me!

    2BSure replied to lulu rn's topic in Emergency

    I agree with the others. Having a set piece probably will cause you exactly what you do not want. It sounds a bit like you may have had an unpleasant experience elsewhere. Give your new colleagues...

  13. Nursing considerations for patients taking OTC drugs and herbal supplements

    2BSure replied to MatRNstudent's topic in General Students

    I am unsure from your post exactly what you need/want. You are correct that obtaining a full health and medication history is paramount (yes inc. supplements and OTC). One thing to keep in mind is...

  14. Should students be penalized due to Instructors Mistake ?

    2BSure replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    As for the taking such a long time for this grading error to come to light -- it is a pity but not a crime. From what I have read and it seems like many schools need to raise their game. These days...

  15. Should students be penalized due to Instructors Mistake ?

    2BSure replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    Frankly, the cut off has to be somewhere. There is no way that anyone goes into an exam without knowing they are near the border academically. Those people need to pull their finger out and work...

  16. Forced to leave job-can I take legal action?

    2BSure replied to wilbur1's topic in General Nursing

    Dear Wilbur1, When you feel the way you do it seems like it will never go away and you will never feel better. That is NOT the case. You will feel better nothing lasts forever including that...
