Can someone tell me if Ridolin can be prescribed to a child when not needed. What I mean is, I know someone who has there child on this med. because the mother says she cant control her child's behavior. I had never witnessed any other behavior in this child other than being a normal kid. However, the mother does need psych help and drugs. She is the type of mother that is self absorbed with loose morals, etc. The type you want to slap and say get a grip, you need to learn how to be a mother. Any way, I am concerned about this child having to take this med. Can I have oppinions?

:chuckle :chuckle I would love to have some really good humor pertaining to nursing. If you have some gut busters, now is the time to shine. Thanks

Thank you for your thoughts and helpful advice. I really am seeking any advice I can at this point. I honestly had done, I thought, my best at the previous tapings and only showed criticism and frustration after I felt I had no idea what was going on and why these attempts were denied and the reasons that were given in the end made me feel that no matter what mannor I presented these skills, it could be something that I really wouldn't think should be criticized. That is where my frustration lyes. Needless to say, at this point I am scared and heartbroken at how this whole thing has unfolded and need any one with an ear to just give any advice I may not have thought about to help me. Thank you very much:)

I guess this is not a very good discussion "without all of the information" There is way more to the story than I even told! I was asking for advice, not ridicule and I dont have an attitude problem or think I am entitled to any more than I deserve. With that said, I wanted advice on what to do if I felt, with knowing how everything has occurred and facts, anyone I can go to with the "facts" of being "unfairly" and to extreme of judgment. I was denied over things such as not appearing confident to a maniken during a procedure, told I went over a sterile field with the betadine cottonballs while putting them in a biohazard bag at the end of the bed during prep for foley cathetor insertion in which it clearly showed I was to the side not over the field, etc, etc, in other words there word against mine. If you would like to know every little detail to "give advice" I would be more than glad to take the time of starting with the beginning of this mess. I did do everything they required, twice! Both denied do to these opinions, as I said, I dont want your opinion about what you think my charactor is, I want to know what steps I can do if I have reason to believe I am being unfairly judged.

I had completed two semesters of an ADN program. I had to withdraw in the third with the understanding that re-entering wouln't be a problem. The instructor from that semester rode me to death and was very "demeaning" I had the feeling she would make re-entry a problem(to make it short). I had to do a video tape of clinical skills that in the view of her and the board were not "perfect"(she is on the board) very minor, stupid things! Any way, I was informed I could try to re-do the video again for this Winter. I was rejected on two previous tape submissions. To make a long story short, now, not only are they saying I have to do the video but have to get recommedation from a nursing councelor about "interpersonal communication" plus two other appointments to do before they will say yes or no. I had some words with the director of the nursing program about how rediculous their expectations were at the previous denial about the video skills and their "nit picking" but I still had the nerve to request re-entry this time and this is what they are insisting I do. I only have two semesters left, that is why I am asking again. I know though, it is a lost cause after telling them what I thought of there re-admission assessment of my previous attempts. Has anyone else had problems and does anyone have any alterior suggestions I can do about the actions they have been taking?
