    Aneroo replied to jacjon's topic in School

  3. Grief and family members: Didn't know what to do!!

    Aneroo replied to Roy Fokker's topic in General Nursing

    What do you think you could have done differently? What was missing that is making you feel like you didn't do a good

  4. Yeah!

    Aneroo posted a topic in General Students

    I just found out a girl I graduated with from my ADN program will be in my BSN program! She is a hoot to be around, and I wish our class were in a classroom! She was the class president, and I was VP....

  5. How to get my foot in the door...

    Aneroo replied to hellooonurse28's topic in Public, Community Health

    Local health dept. is probably the best route to go to start with. You can usually work your way up to a mgt. or a state public health position later if you

  6. Do nurses talk about their patients when the leave

    Aneroo replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. They'll either see your stretch marks and know what's going on, or else they'll assume and think you have track marks or something

  7. What illness do you have today?

    Aneroo replied to MIcrunchyRN's topic in General Nursing

    Ah, the ol' days. LOL I always liked diagnosing family and classmates during

  8. What illness do you have today?

    Aneroo replied to MIcrunchyRN's topic in General Nursing

    Plain ol' cold or allergies. LOL School nurses- we catch it all. Luckily, I've escaped most of the GI bug that's made its rounds. I did get it, but I took phenergan and immodium, then decided to try...

  9. Refusal of Brain Death exam??

    Aneroo replied to PICNICRN's topic in General Nursing

    If they're not brain dead but have matter coming out, they're screwed regardless. The OP's SN is PICNICRN- PICU and NICU RN? If so, then there are the parents making those decisions. While I'm...

  10. Any tips for a newly pregnant nurse?

    Aneroo replied to Lovely_RN's topic in General Nursing

    Zofran. :) My ob/gyn prescribed it for me when I was pregnant- I loved it. I wish they had the dissolving kind then. Just make sure you have good insurance coverage first! She didn't want to prescribe...

  11. School Nurse Get to Know You!

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    You know those annoying get to know you quizzes- let's do one for us! 1. How long have you been a school nurse? 2. How many students do you serve? 3. How many schools do you serve? 4. What age ranges...

  12. School Nurse Get to Know You!

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    Is it hereditary? My assumption (I KNOW what happens when I assume, but I still can't help it)- Mom has poor control of her diet, and either refuses to accept the dangers of obesity or just ignores...

  13. Teen's right to refuse?

    Aneroo replied to alkaleidi's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. Where I am, teens can go to the health dept for STD checks and birth control without parental notification or consent. A wonderful yet scary idea. ETA- I do feel teens have every right to be...

  14. Re-locating to North Carolina?

    Aneroo replied to blue_iris73's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Wilmington is very nice! It's such a beautiful area. I'm not sure about the pay, but the cost of living is a little bit more there, just because of the

  15. School Nurse Get to Know You!

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in School

    1- Welcome to our small world! 2- We had a child like that in one of our school districts. They finally had to make a CPS report, mother still failed to do anything, and the child went to a foster...

  16. School nursing more fashionable?

    Aneroo replied to Purple_Scrubs's topic in School

    I still wear a lot of scrubs, but just because I have a lot, and they are comfortable. If I have a lot of meetings or will be in front of a class, I try to dress up and look nice. Otherwise my hair is...

  17. I got an AED

    Aneroo posted a topic in School

    :yeah: I'm excited, can you tell? It was in my office when I got here this morning. Found out the athletic trainer was asked to put it in my office if needed in the school or the gym (since we're in...

  18. What area of public health do you work in?

    Aneroo posted a topic in Public, Community Health

    Prenatal, adult health, women's health, STD's, communicable disease, children's health, something I missed, or do you do it all? I work in Children's Health (school nurse). I'm amazed when I head over...

  19. What are the most/least popular jobs?

    Aneroo replied to harborview's topic in General Nursing

    It depends. I've always noticed more opening on med/surg- was it because the med/surg unit on that hospital sucked, or because there were significantly more patients and therefore a higher need for...

  20. PIV inserted into an artery! EEK!

    Aneroo replied to JourneyCC's topic in General Nursing

    It happens. See our thread in the ER nurses forum. I figured it out when I didn't hold pressure hard enough and blood went

  21. Yes Virginia, Women can be bleeders!

    Aneroo replied to ECKPowers's topic in General Nursing

    When you call the supervisor, make sure to put it a good word for Jennifer. All too often people will complain about the bad ones (and boy, does she sound awful), but forget to tell the supervisors...

  22. Experience and the best way to enter

    Aneroo posted a topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

  24. Re-locating to North Carolina?

    Aneroo replied to blue_iris73's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    It all depends on location. Do you know which are you are thinking about moving to? It's a great state- you can go from the mountains to the beach in a few

  25. Are you allowed to deliver?

    Aneroo posted a topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Crazy question, I know! When I lived in a town that was home to a large teaching hospital (the only hospital for 30 miles), the CNM's were not allowed to deliver. They saw patients in clinic and did...
