  1. HIPAA question

    Having pt names on a piece of paper, in and of itself is not a HIPAA violation. It only becomes a violation if someone without a need to know gets access to that information. So as long as you...
  2. Looking for an efficient way to keep notes

    I have to go with the pen and paper idea. I fold a blank, 8.5 x 11 in. piece of paper into quarters and keep it in the leg of my pants pocket (it falls out if I keep it in the pocket of my top)....

  6. How do I get acute care experience?

    The OP in this thread has some fabulous, creative ideas. Give it a shot!
  7. I'm not sure what you mean by "not my point." What the OP can or cannot handle is EXACTLY the point because that is what she was asking in her opening post. I don't know why so many keep insisting...
  8. I work at two hospitals. One has a policy of 30 minutes or less for a room assignment from the time of an admit order, and then 30 minutes from the room assignment to floor admission. It's my job...

    Although this is correct, good luck finding anything
  12. advice: tout your own horn!!!

    I see nothing wrong with this, and agree that there is more of a process in place for negative feedback than positive. I also see this as potentially being proactive to protect yourself against the...

    I have no answer for the OP, but where the heck do you get a job like
  14. The OP's A&P classes are scheduled consecutively, not concurrently. And, with the number of hours that the OP has posted for those classes, lab must already be built
  15. This is all well and good, but seriously, if the OP can't handle these two classes at one time going to school only three days per week, how is he/she going to handle nursing
  16. Struggling NP student

    OP - thank you for starting this thread. I haven't started my program yet, but I am bookmarking this thread for when I
  17. I'm not sure that everyone is understanding that A&P I and II are scheduled to be taken consecutively and not
  18. Seriously, I don't see this as a big deal. It's only 2 days per week for A&P, and though the OP didn't specify, probably only 1 day a week for Micro. Plus with the number of hours that were posted...

    I don't live in NY but I didn't learn it or discuss it in school either, and I have done it multiple times when I worked in
  22. Ooop! You forgot to say
  23. Patient hygiene-How far is too far?

  25. Okay, why do ER nurses think they're so cool?

    You DO need to learn reading comprehension. I said ONE of them, not THE worst. In any case, I'm done playing with you and feeding into YOUR drama (which seems to be your MO on this board). Have a...
