  1. Young Nursing Students

    MissBrittanyRN replied to TaraRae123's topic in General Students

  2. Nutrition at Anne Arundel Community College

    MissBrittanyRN replied to MissBrittanyRN's topic in Maryland Nursing

    That's a good idea, getting the assignments finished in advance. My luck would be that I had to sign in at certain times several times a wk for participation lol. I agree that I will need it if I...

  3. Nutrition at Anne Arundel Community College

    MissBrittanyRN replied to MissBrittanyRN's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks for the info! I was wondering as a backup in case I could not get my choice traditional course. For me the point of taking it online was so that I did not have to be available at specific...

    MissBrittanyRN replied to pawsomepooch47's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Where I was going in the case of Pedinurse's daughter was could receiving the mist cause her to test positive for H1N1 if she was sick with something else that presents with similar

  5. Patient dies after falling in shower in the hospital!!!

    MissBrittanyRN replied to anniemichellena's topic in New York Nursing

    Again I am very sorry, but I have to ask, how long from her pushing the callbell/ neighbors hearing her scream did it take for staff to

  6. Have you had a bad reaction to the H1N1 vaccine? If so what happened?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to pawsomepooch47's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Thanks lamaze teacher, for answering my questions. I too hope that my scenerio would never be true, and that a person would not withold that info from their MD. I don't even know why I used that...

  7. What should I have retained from school? Everything?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to MissBrittanyRN's topic in General Nursing

    thanks! i know that nurses never stop learning, and that's one of the reasons that I love nursing. i do know my limitations, but my concerns were that these were things that I learned in first...

  8. What should I have retained from school? Everything?

    MissBrittanyRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Of course no nurse knows everything, but how about all of the basics? I have been out of school for six months now, and I do my best to retain the info that I learned by going through my Saunders...

  10. Anyone know where an IV Certification class is?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to wigglesgogo's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey there. Could you please link us to some info on the class at Harbor?

  11. STOP - Don't buy your textbooks from the school bookstore

    MissBrittanyRN replied to DolceVita's topic in General Students

    I actually have purchased books online that were in great condition, and then sold them back to my school's bookstore at the end of the semester, and have profited a few times (profit so low it is not...

  12. CNA jobs...is it always like this?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to deewee's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Yes, if all of those things are true (and I am not saying they are not) then you need to get out of there. I don't think that what they are doing is

  13. Labor Murse Circulating for C-sections

    MissBrittanyRN replied to Glad's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yes, I also know of a hospital where the OB nurses do not circulate. I am not sure if they recover mom or not, but they do receive the baby. From my understanding, they do not intend to change this...

  14. OB "Freebies"

    MissBrittanyRN replied to malone2192's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Haha. Once in a while one of the massage therapists would do a quick shoulder rub for one of the nurses if she knew them well, and everyone around would just give the lucky nurse a good jealous stare...

  15. New grad in Cardiac Cath Lab Recovery???

    MissBrittanyRN replied to MissBrittanyRN's topic in Cardiac

    Thanks! I am glad someone finally responded. I had my shadow day a couple of days ago and absolutely loved it. It is so hard to get a new grad position now, and although I have had three interiews, no...

  16. Stupid things said by your non-nurse significant other

    MissBrittanyRN replied to Moogie's topic in Nursing Humor

    Haha I too HATE when someone (not exactly a significant other) comes onto the unit and uses the "q" word. When we intervene before they get the word out they tell us we are crazy!!!!!!!! Uhhh do you...

  17. Stupid things said by your non-nurse significant other

    MissBrittanyRN replied to Moogie's topic in Nursing Humor

    Shortly after learning about the reproductive system in high school my best friend who was an iceskater did some crazy jump-in-the-air spinny thing. I guess she spun a little too much because she...

  18. OB "Freebies"

    MissBrittanyRN replied to malone2192's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Sorry to stray away from the breast/bottle feeding discussion, but a sort-of OB freebie that the hospital that I worked in offered was a free massage from a licensed massage therapist to all of our...

  19. Have you had a bad reaction to the H1N1 vaccine? If so what happened?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to pawsomepooch47's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Thanks DuluthMike that makes perfect

  20. Should the H1N1 Vaccine be mandatory for Healthcare Professionals?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to Brian's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Ha there is no mandatory shot. If you want to refuse, fine. You just can't come to work...Fine. Your choice. Not fair? Neither is life. I know that sounds immature and negative, and I am sure I will...

  21. Circumcision at change of shift?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to Rhee's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think that this elective procedure can wait until the L&D or postpartum staff has time, after they address the priorities. If the MD has to be in his office at a certain time, then come in...

  22. Have you had a bad reaction to the H1N1 vaccine? If so what happened?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to pawsomepooch47's topic in Disaster Preparation

  23. Have you had a bad reaction to the H1N1 vaccine? If so what happened?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to pawsomepooch47's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Hi pedinurse, I am just curious. Was your daughter tested for the actual H1N1 strain? The reason I ask is because I did not know that antibiotics were effective treatment for the influenza virus....

  24. Have you had a bad reaction to the H1N1 vaccine? If so what happened?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to pawsomepooch47's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I am administering both H1N1 and seasonal influenza injections to hospital employees. Many employees have stated that their arms were much more sore with the H1N1 injection than the seasonal...

  25. Should the H1N1 Vaccine be mandatory for Healthcare Professionals?

    MissBrittanyRN replied to Brian's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I do not believe that it is ethical to force any person to get any vaccine, as that would be against their free will. However, if your employment is "at-will" and your institution has a policy in...
