There is a really great product available at beauty supply stores called "tend skin" it is some sort of salicylic acid solution that works really well for ingrown hairs and other kinds of shaving bumps.

I had my tongue pierced until my peds rotation in nursing school. I took it out after the 3rd child asked me what I had in my mouth "you got candy??" It was really hard to explain to a child who was going through all of these painful procedures and needle pokes that I had intentionally put a needle through my tongue!! To each her/his own I say!

Do any of my fellow office/clinic nurses have a workplace violence policy that you could share with me? I am on our college clinic OSHA committee and it has fallen into my hands to establish a policy. Surprisingly, our campus doesn't have one in place that I can find. Thanks in advance.

The only way to go are Danskos, as far as I'm concerned.Yes they are pricy but they last forever and they are soooo comfie.I wear them all day long and don't kick them off first thing when I get home. I've even begun to expand my dansko wardrobe to off work shoes. They are really cute and make me feel like dancing :)

At the 1 MD, 3 mid level family practice I work at we do most of our refills by fax. Patients call their pharmacy and request their RF, the pharm faxes and the chart and request go to the nurse who works with that provider. Rf's are reviewed for appropriateness and charted, then faxed back @1130 and 1630 in batches, by pharm. That way we have a confirmation that the RX was done on our end. It sure helps when the pharm or Pt. says "you didn't call in my Rx"! I say "you're right ,I faxed it in,here is the confirmation that I did." Then I fax the confirmation to the pharm along with the rx. It has taken a lot of Pt reeducation but it has been worth it. We used to do each Rx as it came over by phone and those V-mails are so unreliable.we still do some by phone on a case by case basis but nothing like we used to. have a great monday, ya'll!
