  1. protecting yourself against complaints

    Ion replied to am4182's topic in Men in Nursing

    What they did is no different than if they had physically put a knife in you. They assaulted your character, your career, your well being and everything else. Anyone who respects character and...

  2. I/M Harrassment- CO's doing nothing

    Ion replied to articnurseRN's topic in Correctional

    I know a nurse who did this. The inmate filed a grievance against her, went to the grievance officer and then the warden. The warden informed the inmate that based on nurse "X"'s experience in...

  3. I/M Harrassment- CO's doing nothing

    Ion replied to articnurseRN's topic in Correctional

    Stuff happens. You are respected more for standing up for yourself, than turning the other cheek. The criminal inmate mind is mainly about two things- respect and greed. If you are solid, they...

  4. I/M Harrassment- CO's doing nothing

    Ion replied to articnurseRN's topic in Correctional

    My friend had an inmate using the "F" word. He let him know he was going to sue him for sexual harassment. Every time he got close to a new bag of Ramen at the commissary, my friend would be there...

    Ion replied to am4182's topic in Men in Nursing

    Guilty is guilty. This is the same logic as putting someone back on the street who butchered a group of kids because they had psych issues. If the false allegation of a patient has the potential to...

  6. International Public Health

    Ion replied to melrose85's topic in Public, Community Health

    Most of the world's dumps are that way because of the people who live there. Not all of the people, but whoever is in charge, and usually because they are in charge behind the barrel of a...

  7. Did you get a self defense course included

    Ion replied to changeofpaceRN's topic in Correctional

    The less rules they give you, the more free you are in your self defense actions. A small course at work will usually teach you enough to get hurt. If something goes down, you have to move from...

  9. Corrections /Jail good experience for public health??

    Ion replied to chapsticknurse's topic in Public, Community Health

    Part of public health is taking care of the under represented, the sick, the needy and that includes inmates. There is some dignity in that. Corrections is a good experience for anyone. You learn...

  10. Gay labeling, is it just plain mean? Or sexual harrassment?

    Ion replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Men in Nursing

  13. Female Inmates?

    Ion replied to PMFB-RN's topic in Correctional

    In my experience, gender has a lot to do with it, Princess. Maybe most women are not as nasty as our criminal men. Women do not make up the majority of the population in most jails, but are...

  21. Phoenix Indian Medical Center

    Ion replied to AfghaniPrinzess's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I refuse to work for any organization that discriminates against any people on the basis of race. I would not work there anymore than I would work in a facility that denied health care to Native...

  23. 2006 pass scores are out *and* broken down by college

    Ion replied to AZmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    No, they clearly think on a different level. One student in our ADN program was accidentally administered the RN NCLEX and passed. My experience is that LPNs in a ADN/RN program frequently...

  24. Lung Cancer Stigma

    Ion replied to Jayla's topic in General Nursing

    for the same reasons that efforts are made to ban firearms when more people accidentally die from food poisoning than accidentally die from guns. for the same reason when refuse to seal our borders...

  25. 2006 pass scores are out *and* broken down by college

    Ion replied to AZmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    ...but not surprising. I have a little theory that LPNs do not think as RNs and LPN programs do not train nurses at the RN level. The associate degree nursing programs that allow students to be able...
