  1. I'm gonna scream...

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    I'm going to scream if this happens one more time during my screenings- Me: Do you wear glasses or contacts?" Student: No. -Do the vision screening, 20/50 bilaterally. Me: Have you ever been to the...

  2. What's going to happen when we ALL leave the bedside?

    Aneroo replied to Purple_Scrubs's topic in General Nursing

    I think about it too. I left bedside to become a school nurse too. Now I'm looking at going back to the hospital (budget cuts have cut my salary big time and we can't deal with that

  3. Background Check ran on Dementia Resident

    Aneroo replied to yadda_yadda_yadda's topic in General Nursing

    First of all- DEMENTIA! Doesn't mean they're a sexual offender. I had a patient with dementia tell me we were going to fly to Hawaii in a pineapple plane- what they say doesn't mean it's true....

  4. Were there any nursing skills that you didn't get to do in nursing school?

    Aneroo replied to Plagueis's topic in General Nursing

    See one, do one, teach one!!! When you begin orientation, it should be part of a checkoff list you have to complete to show you're competent enough to work there (you show you can do skills as you...

  5. Bzzzzzz....

    Aneroo replied to pugmomrn's topic in School

    Noro made its rounds here in November. Thank God that's

  6. Improper Supervision

    Aneroo replied to Purple_Scrubs's topic in School

    We're lucky to get printer paper and lightbulbs. No chance of getting a new door when there aren't even enough chairs or books for students. If there were an issue, it wouldn't fall under DMR, but...

  7. Lighting at night

    Aneroo replied to miko014's topic in General Nursing

    The only concern I would have with that is the increased fall

  8. I love...

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    I also love that they finally turned on the air conditioner!!! It was warm, and I was getting some students getting lightheaded from being hot. Now they're just coming in saying they think they have a...

  9. Not fair!

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    I received a bill in the mail today here at school, for $500. Only I didn't order anything. I took it to admin., who said "Oh, the athletic trainer ordered that". So tell me WTH the athletic trainer...

  10. How do you secure crash carts?

    Aneroo replied to htrn's topic in Emergency

    Red ones. We'd be screwed if we had real

  11. Not fair!

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    I've never even met the trainer. Talked to her on the phone once (to let her know I didn't think a diabetic student should be in football practice in mid-August with his blood sugar of 500, despite...

  12. Pitt County Memorial Hospital

    Aneroo replied to zeinoonm's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I haven't been there since they've rearranged (since opening the new heart center, some units moved around/expanded). I believe it is 1 nurse:2 patients. Pitt is good to their travelers (for the most...

  13. Bad day...

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    I wish we had 4 days to spring break. Ours is after Easter.

  14. Bad day...

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    I'm starting to get snarky with the kids. Like the girl I've sent back to class FIVE TIMES. The same girl who pranced into my office as I am dealing with the boy outside of my office who was about 5...

  15. Antibiotic cream...

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    I think I am going to ask and see if we can get a standing order for it. We have one for lice, impetigo, pinkeye,

  16. Signed State DNR form no good????

    Aneroo replied to llltapp's topic in Emergency

    I can understand that. In this sue happy country we live in, I think most would rather code someone and get yelled at for it later than NOT code someone and have someone sue because "you didn't do...

  18. FIRST TRAUMA

    Aneroo replied to mrscoozy's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for sharing. I still find the need to decompress after a bad trauma (it helps that my husband is a nurse and he understands). Being the documenter always helps. I would document during codes...

  19. Need idea for gift for new grad

    Aneroo replied to med/oncRN's topic in General Nursing

    Either a spa day or one of the less expensive Littmanns with the name engraved on

  20. Another Nursing Dx Priority Question

    Aneroo replied to ekrieg's topic in General Nursing

    I'd change one of the risk for's to an actual problem. The "risk for" comes second to an actual

  21. why is this a sign of overhydration?

    Aneroo replied to mashamontago's topic in General Nursing

    With that information only, the only thing that'd make me think fluid overload would be the RR. The HR depends on too many things- it could be fluid overload, but it could also be...

  22. Just Fired, Need Interview & Resume Advice

    Aneroo replied to MelissaPhoographerRN's topic in General Nursing

    First of all, you seem like a competent nurse who just got crapped on. That's a sorry reason to fire someone- you did what you were supposed to do. ABC's and prioritize your patients. But I have to...

  23. jade goody

    Aneroo replied to melz34's topic in General Nursing

    Did she pass? I haven't checked Perez in two days. I think it's horrible what is (has) happened to her. However, I applaud her for jumping out there to make sure her children are well taken care of...

  24. How much Xylo do you mix with Rocephin?

    Aneroo replied to monica969's topic in General Nursing

    I'd check with pharmacy also if there isn't a standing protocol for it. We had a protocol and it was taped on the wall next to the

  25. Nurse against Nurse false accusation

    Aneroo replied to guest83140's topic in School

    I'm glad that is over for you, and am so glad the principal was awesome enough to support you and your aid. That is so critical in situations like this! If there is a positive, there is a policy being...
