  1. It's Dark in Here!!

    Limik replied to FranEMTnurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    Fran, you are just too darn funny. I love it, keep um coming.

  2. Can you help me with PHN?

    Limik replied to avahsmiles's topic in General Nursing

    You can get a PHN job as an LPN- I did. However those jobs are very few and far between. Also, as an LPN you will be extremely limited in what you can do. I really enjoyed PH, really regret leaving...

  3. What do/did you say when...

    Limik replied to Nalini's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Amen NancyJo! I think as long as you are content and fulfilled with the job that you have, you don't need to put yourself through the torture of school to get new initials behind your name. Sometimes...

  4. Lunch Everyone? Am I paranoid or what?

    Limik replied to NancyJo's topic in General Nursing

    Totally unacceptable. :angryfire We always had to rotate lunches so there was always equal coverage at all times. This seems just plain insane to me and even more so that the DON doesn't seem to have...

  5. What happens if you hit bone in an inj?

    Limik replied to weeble's topic in General Nursing

    Yep. I hit bone once in ten years, in a thin elderly person (of course). I also aspirated blood once. Both made me feel really bad, but neither pt. had any problems afterwards.

  6. YeeHaw! Great new job

    Limik replied to Limik's topic in Nursing Career

    Thank you for your good thoughts. I am so glad I found this job and allnurses.com. :)

  7. YeeHaw! Great new job

    Limik posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Hi everyone. I've been posting for a little while now, and to be honest, when I first found this board I was very disillusioned with nursing. I was actually thinking seriously about leaving nursing...

  8. Blatant Nursing "No-No's"........what's your worst???

    Limik replied to anndoodle's topic in General Nursing

    Years ago, I worked with a brand new nurse, first job out of nursing school. She was a very sweet girl, however, seemed basically clueless about many nursing tasks. She had been orienting for a few...

  9. Nursing Wearing Sandals To Work?????eeeeeeeekkkkk!!!

    Limik replied to proudmommielpn's topic in General Nursing

    Sandals in healthcare! That is just wrong, wrong, wrong!

  10. New office set up questions.

    Limik posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am starting a new job as an office nurse for an orthopedic surgeon. This is a new practice, the doctor just relocated from Fla. He has asked me to come up with a list of office supplies we will need...

  11. New office set up questions.

    Limik replied to Limik's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the help guys. I have made a list w/ all of the supplies you mentioned.

  12. I Was So Wrong....i Passed!!!!

    Limik replied to CANADIANA's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Great job! Go celebrate :balloons:

  13. New LPN and no jobs available.

    Limik replied to ladybay's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have to say, reading most of these posts has made me a little angry. :angryfire I have been an LPN for 10 years and have worked in a wide variety of settings including acute care, public health,...

  14. You Know You're A Nurse When...

    Limik replied to Farkinott's topic in Nursing Humor

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: So true!

  15. Nursing License number fraud question

    Limik replied to kelly2u's topic in Washington Nursing

    I'm no legal expert, but I would think besides misrepresenting herself as an RN, you may also consider identity theft. Even if she didn't give your name, she represented your license as her own, which...

  16. When is a nurse not a nurse? Situation...

    Limik replied to Quickbeam's topic in General Nursing

    Amen. No license, you can't call yourself a nurse. You did the right thing.

  17. My heart is broken today - How can I give right now?

    Limik replied to momcats3's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Oh, I so feel your pain. About six months ago I had to put my precious kitty down because he had feline leukemia. To this day I still cry like a baby when I think about it. I had the same doubts that...

  18. AAARRRGGGGHHH!! Stupid cell phones!

    Limik replied to lovingtheunloved's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I agree. I hate cell phones at work. I turn mine off whenever I go to work. Don't you hate it when you are interviewing a patient and they stop to answer their cell phone. So rude! :angryfire

  19. Wish me luck

    Limik replied to michw2's topic in General Nursing

    Best of luck! :biggringi

  20. ARE THERE ANY NURSES OUT THERE THAT ACTUALLY "ENJOY" or HAPPY WITH THEIR JOB.

    Limik replied to dream8's topic in General Nursing

    The great thing about nursing is that if you aren't happy in one position, there are so many others you can pursue and still be a nurse. Most of the complaints you hear about nursing you will hear no...

  21. New office set up questions.

    Limik replied to Limik's topic in General Nursing

    I am starting a new job as an office nurse for an orthopedic surgeon. This is a new practice, the doctor just relocated from Fla. He has asked me to come up with a list of office supplies we will need...

  22. YeeHaw! Great new job

    Limik replied to Limik's topic in Nursing Career

    Actually, I didn't even know about this position. I had submitted my resume to the hospital a while back. They forwarded my resume to this Doctor because they recruited him and are helping him to...

  23. Positive Mantoux

    Limik replied to ohlpn's topic in General Nursing

    Hi ohlpn. I used to work in public health and we were educated continually about current TB protocols. A positive skin test alone is not indicative of TB. You didn't say if the CXR was conclusive. I...

  24. What does an LPN charge nurse do in LTC?

    Limik posted a topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Hi. This may seem like a stupid question :imbar considering I have been in nursing for 10+ years, mostly in hospitals and free standing clinics. I am thinking of applying to a LTC facility affiliated...

  25. Are you ashamed of being a nurse?

    Limik replied to Mijourney's topic in Nursing Career

    I am sooo happy to see the replies to this question. I have been a nurse for ten years and recently have been struggling with the decision to leave nursing for many of the reasons listed on other...
