  5. Attention ortho nurses!!

    I actually wish I had not posted. On reflection it seems you have some angle. This is a question for the healthcare team of the patient. Even if you provide more "details" it is not for us to...
  6. Attention ortho nurses!!

    Unlikely these days. As for the sepsis w/ARDS that isn't exactly bedrest if you are lying in an ICU w/ tubes up the ying yang -- they'd be unconscious. I know I am splitting

    livetolearn I soooooooo agree. It makes me bonkers when someone shows up coughing up a
  9. Calling in....

    It really is not OK to delve for symptoms without a specific reason (like has there been some cluster of something at your facility). Even then it wouldn't be for your supervisor to do the symptom...
  10. Calling in....

    I am in love with
  11. No More Fingersticks for Techs!!

    I am very torn about all of this. I don't wish to diminish CNAs and say they aren't capable of doing this. Equally, this reduction of nursing to "tasks" clearly has become the thin end of a bloody...
  12. Organizational Tool

    I'd like to see it

  14. What do your ER volunteers do?

    I am all for volunteers, especially if they are students of the med profession, getting involved as much as possible. Things like taking vitals and bathing patients doesn't seem appropriate for...
  15. Emergency Nurse Relief Act 2009- Update

    With the greatest of respect how can a COUNTRY make a living exporting nurses? Where do you get this stuff? Also, as for educating people in the country they are going to work in; do you think this...
  16. Starting clinicals, no experience! HELP!

    Don't worry about other people's experiences at clinical. This is your clinical and you will do fine. Get proper sleep the night before and eat something just before shift. I hope you love

    It is hard to soar like an eagle when you are surrounded by
  18. What is your opinion

    Excellent question. It occurs to me that it would be a great idea to take the time for meaningful and thought out praise (rather than just a little kudos note on the locker). Public praise is great...
  19. judgemental nurses/students

    On a far cooler note have a look at the Accuvein thread.

  22. Emergency Nurse Relief Act 2009- Update

    It is quite a standard of most every corporation world-wide to use temp-style workers, not just in American healthcare. This isn't anything to do with foreigners. Can you think why...? Think about...
  23. Emergency Nurse Relief Act 2009- Update

    First of all what does it matter if I am from the moon? Are you seeking to nullyfy my argument purely based on that you think I am a Brit? Also, having a British mommy neither makes you an authority...
  24. Difficulty of Nursing Classes Vs. Biochemistry

    Like some of the other posters have said, I found pharmacology sooooooo easy. I have studied o.chem, inorg. chem, molecular biology and the nursing pharmacology class I took was more like a survey...
  25. Are You Popular At Work?

    OMG that is
