  1. Care plan for burn patient

    Aneroo replied to kidsnurse1969's topic in School

    Bless her heart. I'd get written permission from the mother to speak with the physician about her needs at school. I probably wouldn't have thought about the things you've already posted. But you're...

  2. Nursing and abortions

    Aneroo replied to breakinglightx's topic in General Nursing

    I don't see how this is relevant to the

  3. Specialty with low/least stress?

    Aneroo replied to PAERRN20's topic in General Nursing

    And I disagree. I've never feared for my job as a nurse, until I did public health nursing. I though hospital paperwork was bad? Yech. LOL I hate watching the news because it's always "budget cuts...

  4. Is this considered nepotism?

    Aneroo replied to BrittRN2b's topic in General Nursing

    No, it is not a problem. It would be a problem if one were in a management position (even charge). My husband is a nurse, but we do not work on the same unit. We'd

  5. Nursing and abortions

    Aneroo replied to breakinglightx's topic in General Nursing

    Of course you can still be a nurse and not assist in abortions. Really, it depends on what level you want to call an abortion. I've worked with an MD who refused to order Plan B. He was more than...

  6. I wish they made...

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    I wish they made... Lysol bombs! Kinda like the kind you use to kill bugs. I'd set one off nightly before I

  7. here goes again I am sure-acrylics-this time it's personal

    Aneroo replied to mel1977's topic in General Nursing

    You've never had fake nails have you- they're awful to the natural nail. It leaves them weak and even more brittle than they might have been before. It's taken me months to recover from acrylics. I...

  8. Nurse against Nurse false accusation

    Aneroo replied to guest83140's topic in School

    I'd make sure the documentation rocks. I agree with getting the others in the meeting as well. I'd also request to meet with the principal first, give your side of the story without her interrupting....

  9. What do you want O.R. nurses to do during a trauma alert?

    Aneroo replied to linda2097's topic in Emergency

    Not in our ER either. We dress OUT- foot covers, hair covers, mask, eye shields, lead and plastic gowns. After a long trauma, your are STANK. Yech. First of all- thanks for thinking of us to find...

  10. I started my first IV last night

    Aneroo replied to blondy2061h's topic in General Nursing

    Some schools leave it to the facility to teach this once orientation begins (don't know if it is school or hospital policy). WTG on the

  11. CA MRSA

    Aneroo replied to tkdoofam's topic in General Nursing

    It depends where on the finger it is at. A bandage with a piece of tegaderm or a finger sheath (the things that look like condoms) can provide sufficent

  12. Charlotte, GN jobs

    Aneroo replied to Astock's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Explore the areas around Charlotte as well. Most people don't actually live *in* Charlotte b/c of the cost of living, but live in the area surrounding it. A lot of the hospitals are owned by the main...

  13. CA MRSA

    Aneroo replied to tkdoofam's topic in General Nursing

    I would say if it isn't draining and it covered at all times, she would be ok. It took a week of abx before my staph infection on my leg was looking better and no longer

  14. Fall Risk Screening in the ED

    Aneroo replied to RNintheER's topic in Emergency

    We did the same. It does not take long at all, and it automatically determines the fall risk. If they are a high fall risk, you do some quick education (here is your call light. Call me if you need to...

  15. Cheaters in my med/surg class

    Aneroo replied to brandy1215's topic in General Students

    I'm shocked at how many people are saying to keep quiet about it. If you know someone is cheating (and have proof), I feel you have an obligation to report it. It DOES deal with patient safety- if...

  16. What is your ED policy in these circumstances

    Aneroo replied to JessicRN's topic in Emergency

    1st er- yes. loved it, nurses gave it. 2nd er- no. crna's would come down and give it, and i think i can remember it being given

  17. Carilion

    Aneroo replied to WildcatFanRN's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I would do cards! I would print mine on resume paper and mail it

  18. What OTC meds do you keep in your clinic?

    Aneroo replied to cowgirlBSN's topic in School

    I wouldn't give the tylenol/ibuprofen/tums without MD orders, but that is just

  19. How does YOUR hospital waste its money?

    Aneroo replied to Riseupandnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I love that website! I almost got in trouble once for putting this one on the ice machine in the staff lounge: http://www.despair.com/customercare.html I agree. A coastal NC hospital will give...

  20. I keep getting sick!

    Aneroo replied to kimbernurse's topic in School

    The other triggering thing: A lot of these schools are OLD. Mold,

  21. Clinic Numbers

    Aneroo replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    I saw about 20-22 today. A lot of it is simple stuff, but a lot is time consuming also. I have been working on finishing my BMI/vision stuff

  22. PIXIS and Narcotics

    Aneroo replied to needsmore$'s topic in Emergency

    If unopened, we use the return option, which has to be witnessed. I'd get risk management involved- why wait until they catch someone diverting drugs to note the

  23. ECU MSN-AE Program 2008

    Aneroo replied to Enzo10's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I don't have any info on that part- I'm in the RN/BSN portion

  24. moving to NC from IA......

    Aneroo replied to yogalove's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I don't have any experience at those hospitals, but good

  25. Recovering Nurse Jobs

    Aneroo replied to jbleak9650's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    As boring as it might seem, LTC might be a good option. You'd be more likely to at least get an 8hr daytime
