I agree; I went from long-term care to correctional nursing. I feel 100% safer in prison than I ever will on the outside. I should have switched sooner.

I heard from an ex-instructor that Vickie Milanzo's class is excellent and expensive. She is a CLNC and works from her home and well as teaches. She told me it is well worth the money, but a lot of information in a short time. Vickie does have a s...

I am in a class with an assignment to write about 5 key events of nursing research and there are about 30 listed in the text. I just want some ideas from someone else. Of course it all started with Florence Nightingale and after there seems to be s...

I am thinking about teaching or legal nursing. Guess I could do both. Well back to work and thanks for your help. Helen

Yes I am at UOP. Thanks for the advice..............very helpful. It is just hard to limit to just 5. THANKS again. Do you plan to go into research post graduation? I have changed my mind at least 20 times. There is sooooo much out there...

:) I would love to work with you, so sound like my kind of nurse!!!!

Believe me it doesn't matter which shift you work. I work days and the evening shift comes in and will chit-chat for about an hour before they listen to report. We can not leave until they are out of report and on the floor. Some days I would like ...

To repeat what etmx5313 said.....ALWAYS .say it again...ALWAYS fill out an incident report, you never know what will happen the next day or week. An incident report states what happened and what if .Oh say ... 4 days later someone asks you about wha...

To me it is all part of team work. I don't think a nurse should be busing tables if a patient needs her, but to help things run smoothly>>>>>>> I have bused many a table. I was a DON in a LTC and had the concept that I would ...

Phyrenrain, I misunderstood your guestion. This is long so bear with me. When I take care of a certain patient for weeks or month on end and they bring me somthing for me alone I usually accept small gifts and keep that to myself. I believe if ...

I have received many "thank-you" cards and that is all. They mean more to me than any amount of money ever could. :)

I agree with sb22, there is nothing wrong with teasing people. I love to laugh and joke.There is too much sadness in the world. We need more fun and funny people :rotfl: :rotfl:

Patrick, Maybe we will be in some of the same classes. Right now I am in Theory and writing care plans I realize they are important, but I still don't like them. Later Back to care plans

Hey, I can't speak for RNPATL, but if you need any help just pm me. Helen

Treddrn, I am taking classes for BSN now and am in my second class. LOVE IT :) I only wish I would have started sooner. As RNPATL said there are some non-workers but the whole experience has been worth it. Helen

Patrick, I am having the same problem with my LT, I did the whole thing myself with a little help form one of the others. The third person did nothing :angryfire So do you think the professor checks the LTs to se who is and who is not working? I a...
