  1. What have I done?

    Agnus replied to adnstudent2007's topic in General Nursing

    Nothing. There were two other people checking this script the MD and pharmacy. Now if the pt is still getting percocet when you return you might ask the perscribing MD about this. It is highly...

    Agnus replied to Jabramac's topic in General Nursing

  3. Prayer and patient care.

    Agnus replied to WhiteFlowerRN's topic in General Nursing

  4. flunking out of nursing school

    Agnus replied to illbeanurse's topic in General Nursing

    More than likely when you reapply you will need to demonstrate why they should accept you back. In other words what is different now than when you were failing. I would go and talk to my...

  5. What would you do if...(long sorry)

    Agnus replied to MIA-RN's topic in General Nursing

    Agnus replied to vnsam's topic in General Nursing

    Agnus replied to vnsam's topic in General Nursing

  9. Pushing drugs for the Man bother anyone?

    Agnus replied to somebody's topic in General Nursing

    I do not mean this facetiously. You are still in nursing school! If this really is how you feel you can find another line of work where you are not compromising your values. Or are you really after...

  12. Patients Treat Nurses Like Garbage!

    Agnus replied to lisa41rn's topic in General Nursing

    Oh yes I really love it when you put a spit guard on and it splatters back into their own face. [lol] It never takes more than spitting twice with one of these on to stop them. But then who cares...

  13. I got the job!

    Agnus replied to Wildphire's topic in General Nursing

    As far as keeping your mouth shut, don't. Be absolutely teachable. Ask questions. Even when you know the answer some times it is wise to ask anyway. This does two things. It shows you acknowledge...

  16. Patients Treat Nurses Like Garbage!

    Agnus replied to lisa41rn's topic in General Nursing

    There have been times when it is so bad that I tell the patient that illness is not an excuse to bite the hand that feeds them. THey will treat me with respect if they want care. Patients respect...

  17. Do I really have to study a second language?

    Agnus replied to The-Manny's topic in General Nursing

    You will find most 4 year degrees in anything, Not just nursing, will look for 2 years of language study in high school. So if you plan to go to college at all I would take a language. It is not...

  20. Held Down and Forced to Take The FLu Shot

    Agnus replied to Nurse_FF_EMT's topic in General Nursing

    So, satisfy our curiosity. This up date sounds like no one was actually held down after all. So, which is it? What actually did happen? My personal feeling was that things got exaggerated in the...

  21. Pushing drugs for the Man bother anyone?

    Agnus replied to somebody's topic in General Nursing
