    34 year old man misdiagnosed HF leads to MI

    lrobinson5 replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    Good videos. I like how he uses correct terminology and also describes it with less jargon. I think these are a great idea for him, I'm sure this has helped expand his

    Drug Legalization

    lrobinson5 replied to commonsense's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I found an article about it in Time: "Portugal's case study is of some interest to lawmakers in the U.S., confronted now with the violent overflow of escalating drug gang wars in Mexico. The U.S. has...

    Possibility of Undergrad working in the ICU towards becoming CRNA

    lrobinson5 replied to fmiller007's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry, I was not referring to the OP. You mentioned about how on other posts people flamed hopeful CRNAs. I am not suggesting we discourage anyone. I just think there is an attitude that if I do XYZ I...

    Possibility of Undergrad working in the ICU towards becoming CRNA

    lrobinson5 replied to fmiller007's topic in General Nursing

    Well, it does make you look bad when you want to get away with the bare minimum (or in the case that people usually get flamed for, those asking if there are schools that require less than the usual...

    TSA asks a 95 y/o women to remove brief

    lrobinson5 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

    When I went to the airport before they changed their procedures you got a pat down that tried to be decent, now it has mutated in to one I feel is unnecessary. One example is the breast/bra...

    I just feel that I would feel in much better hands if I had nurses that were sexy

    Yeah, but that is your husband! I'm sure if patients started crossing the line with you it wouldn't be nearly as

    I think everyone that posts these types of questions is now looking up Barry University and the soonest they can

    TSA asks a 95 y/o women to remove brief

    lrobinson5 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

    The reason they recently changed their procedures is because of those stupid body scanners. There is a reason they make the pat-downs so uncomfortable, they want people to go through the scanners...

    requirements for crna and rn?

    lrobinson5 replied to lpham622's topic in General Nursing

    What you're looking for is an RNFA (Registered Nurse First Assistant) You can't be a CRNA and not do the anesthesia part, it would be your job to do just that. You need to become an RN and start...

    Drug Legalization

    lrobinson5 replied to commonsense's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    To make sure it's clear, people that drive under the influence should definitely face jail time. I think that the focus should be on rehabilitation if someone is just caught with possession of a drug....

    Drug Legalization

    lrobinson5 replied to commonsense's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Then by definition wouldn't that make alcohol and cigarettes gateway drugs? All I am saying is if you look at the alcohol industry, there isn't a street gang selling hooch on the black market....

    Drug Legalization

    lrobinson5 replied to commonsense's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I disagree. The reason people don't smoke pot is the same reason people don't drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes: they don't want to. If pot, crack/cocaine, ecstasy, heroine etc. were made legal...

    What kind of car do you drive for those 1+ hour commutes?

    lrobinson5 replied to 2011nursetobe's topic in General Nursing

    You're fine, all a toyota needs is gas and the occasional oil change and it's good to go. My '91 tercel is getting me through school right now, it just rolled over 330,000

    I think if he doesn't want to tell on her than you should. I'm sure his wife feels the same way! She has no business working in healthcare and you need to explain that to him. It would have been one...

    how did you make money while job hunting?

    lrobinson5 replied to senseiRN's topic in General Nursing

    I have a feeling a lot of people depended heavily on family/spouse while searching. I have NO clue how single parents do

    Drug Legalization

    lrobinson5 replied to commonsense's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I can't find anything about it being a disaster. They were never able to rescind it, but instead changed the legal limit from less than 4 ounces to less than 1. While I am all ears for every argument...

    What a bitter, miserable person. I wouldn't let ANY of what she says get to you. She obviously is horrible to everyone on the floor, and she extends that to you as well. You have had numerous other...

    What do you think of this?

    lrobinson5 replied to handyrn's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know about a lawsuit, but I think maybe reporting it to the licencing body for that state. Maybe there have been similar complaints, and it will help ensure safe

    What do you think of this?

    lrobinson5 replied to handyrn's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like you could file a complaint for very poor care, but I don't think it counts as a HIPAA violation. To me it seems stupid to have people right next to each other. At some point someone is...

    On Becoming a Nurse

    lrobinson5 replied to ColdChief's topic in General Nursing

    I HIGHLY suggest that you call both the BON in the state you want a license and the nursing school you want to go to. It doesn't matter what people on this forum think, it is what THEY think that will...

    Drug Legalization

    I understand what you are saying completely, I just can't buy into it considering how drugs are treated in our society. If people were serious about preventing everything you just said, alcohol would...
