  1. HPV, HSV, etc

    Aneroo replied to adoptionacres's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Gardasil Vaccine Info Sheet for those interested:

  2. Drug addicts and sugar

    Aneroo replied to CrazyMommy's topic in Addictions

    Because it's really hard to start exercising when you can't walk because of the pain... I didn't realize we merged this thread with the obese people

  3. Obscene Phone Calls

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    I have my office phone and a cell phone provided by work. My cell phone remains off most days, since I am in the office and I do not get a cell phone signal in there (after an hour my battery dies...

  4. Info on Greenville please...

    Aneroo replied to WildcatFanRN's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    How big of a place are you looking for, and do you care how long of a drive it is? Do you care if there are rowdy college students having a kegger two doors down at

  5. Can I scream?

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    Or cry, whatever.... Just found out one of the staff here has been giving students ibuprofen. I've sent out I don't know how many notes about not giving students medication since that's considered...

  6. Can I scream?

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    Thanks everyone. I cooled down a little bit and then sent out an email to staff. I just hope the ones who need to read it do! There was only one person I saw yesterday who did it, and I don't want her...

  7. So I have a clinical in the ER

    Aneroo replied to IlliniGuy's topic in Emergency

    LOL- My cousin is doing his residency in EM- that was one of my words of advice: Eat before getting there and keep a protein bar in your bag. While you want to be proactive for your learning...

  8. Please help ! What would you do for this situation ?

    Aneroo replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in School

    I do not think 10 times in the school years would count as abuse. What time is his class? If it's before lunch- is he eating breakfast? Where does he sit in class? Does he need a vision screening to...

  9. Caffeine Alert

    Aneroo replied to skoolnurse's topic in School

    Cowgirl! I've seen this too. Scary huh. You can't buy cold medicine without an ID, but they can buy all of the other uppers they

  10. Most disgusting thing you have witnessed or taken part of on the job?

    Aneroo replied to Solid Snake's topic in General Nursing

    In the context of the OP, it wasn't appropriate. If someone has a sore throat or rectal pain, it might be appropriate. Seeing more and more cases where what was thought to be strep throat might...

  11. Health room log examples

    Aneroo replied to cowgirlBSN's topic in School

    We tried electronic earlier this year, but we dropped it. It was attached to the program the schools use to enter grades/change courses/etc... It went well, except I had almost no internet access in...

  12. Acinetobacter outbreak in LTAC Hospital

    Aneroo replied to Magsulfate's topic in General Nursing

    We use something similar in the schools to show kids about the important of handwashing. When all else fails, I use the old cheap standby- glitter mixed with lotion. Only put it on a few hands, and by...

  13. Most disgusting thing you have witnessed or taken part of on the job?

    Aneroo replied to Solid Snake's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks! I knew white was in the name, but otherwise I was drawing a total

  14. Boredom on the job-- creative activities for school nurse down time

    Aneroo replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    New Bulletin Board Idea! (More for high school kids) I'm getting ready to change my bulletin board. Our spring break isn't until April (week after Easter), but I've noticed these girls already...

  15. Most disgusting thing you have witnessed or taken part of on the job?

    Aneroo replied to Solid Snake's topic in General Nursing

    Call me crazy, but all I can think of with this is the comedy skit with the guy from Blue Collar Comedy (can't remember his name, Tater Salad) where he says "You ever have a poop so good your pants...

  16. HPV, HSV, etc

    Aneroo replied to adoptionacres's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The problem with HSV testing is that there either needs to be an active outbreak, or else it is not specific (a history of oral herpes/cold sores can cause a positive). What age groups are you...

  17. The Emergency Nurse Guide to Dealing with Early Pregnancy Loss

    Aneroo posted a topic in Emergency

    This is by no means anything scientific. This contains my own thoughts and what I believe to be best practice in being a patient advocate for women in the ER setting who are facing early pregnancy...

  18. I love...

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    I love testing days. It's so

  19. I want this job!

    Aneroo replied to ittybittybabynurse's topic in Public, Community Health

    They posted about 4 positions to the area I'm relocating to. I'd love to continue working for PH, but I don't know if this is the area I want to go into. Sounds great though, just not for

  20. Why I love nurses, paramedics and the people that saved my life!

    Aneroo replied to Melindy06's topic in General Nursing

    I thought that too. We'd all jump in taking care of you, but the dude down the hall is complaining because he wants some coffee. :lol: Glad you're ok

  21. Pitt County Memorial Hospital

    Aneroo replied to zeinoonm's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Yeah, the MICU is a busy place. Pitt co. and surrounding area has a LOT of medical problems- a whole lot more than I've noticed in the western part of the state. They've got the killer three down: DM,...

  22. Charge nurse with less than a year RN experience???!!

    Aneroo replied to RNpandoraRN's topic in Nurse Management

    It might just be how that nurse is perceived by mgt. My husband is a nurse in an ICU. He was about 6-8 months off orientation when the (new) manager asked how long he had been there. Had he been there...

  23. California BON/resullts..glitch??

    Aneroo replied to Someday2bRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    1- Do you know if you passed the NCLEX? 2- I had problems with my criminal background check taking longer than normal (I'm in NC). I don't know why, since I don't have a criminal background. My peers...

  24. IV Lopressor...who can administer it?

    Aneroo replied to HurricaneBreeze's topic in General Nursing

    If you're not trained to do the cardiac monitoring required to give that medication, I would not give it. I do not believe you have to be ACLS certified to give it, but you do need to be able to note...

  25. Charge nurse with less than a year RN experience???!!

    Aneroo replied to RNpandoraRN's topic in Nurse Management

    The charge role is not the position to be getting experience. You need the experience PRIOR to taking on a charge position, and it isn't something you can simulate in a lab or learn in a
