  1. Discharge orders you'd LIKE to write!!!

    Aneroo replied to LoriAlabamaRN's topic in Emergency

    The gf or the bf? Cause there is no way in the world I'd let my hubby grow something that big on his body without me going after him with something to pop it. Refer to the pimple popping, sunburn...

  2. triage

    Aneroo replied to acuteobrn's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Our ED send patients after 20 weeks, sometimes before depending on the situation. If a patient presents to the ER, is greater than 20 weeks pregnant and has a medical (non-ob) related complaint, they...

  4. Certification pay

    Aneroo replied to grammyr's topic in Emergency

    We do not receive raises for some certs (ACLS, PALS, TNCC), not sure about CEN (but doubt it). Other hospitals around here do offer bonuses though. I think because all of our nurses are expected to...

  5. REST BREAKS for Nurses in The ER

    Aneroo replied to AngelGirl's topic in Emergency

    Yes, it is a labor law (at least in NC). If you work more than an 8 hour shift, you are REQUIRED to take a 30 minute break. I've had several nights where I haven't had the chance to take a break, but...

  6. Discharge orders you'd LIKE to write!!!

    Aneroo replied to LoriAlabamaRN's topic in Emergency

  8. Ultrasound-free sex predictor

    Aneroo replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Ob/Gyn

    There is a blood gender predictor. The mother sends in a sample of her blood. They (the company) say they can tell whether the baby is male or female, depending on if there is male chromosomes in the...

  9. Decub's starting in the ED

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in Emergency

    Luckily, we do get hospital beds sometimes, but not all of the time. I didn't have one of the long wait patients the other day, so I don't know what type of bed they were on. Regardless of bed,...

  10. Waste in hospitals

    Aneroo replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing

    We wonder the same thing. It's something our management is butting head with the lab about. Not sure what their rationale is. If I can get a doctors order that was typed into the computer by a doc,...

  11. Waste in hospitals

    Aneroo replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing

    We have a similar issue with the lab. They know when we have blood work ordered, but we have to print a sheet with the order on it and send it to the lab (even though they can read the order thru our...

  12. Discharging PTs to an Unsafe Environment??

    Aneroo replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

    Totally away from the OP, but you can. Say the child has been kissed on the face by a loving aunt with a cold sore (HSV type one). Child touches sore, doesn't wash hands, child can self-introduce...

  13. Discharge orders you'd LIKE to write!!!

    Aneroo replied to LoriAlabamaRN's topic in Emergency

    Then it's just hilarous!!! :rotfl: had a guy who had swallowed a large piece of meat that became lodged in his esophagus, needed an endoscopy to get it down. D/c instructions included "Chew...

  14. Hot Flashes!!!

    Aneroo replied to Haunted's topic in General Nursing

    I like to call the Power Surges. I'm not menopausal, just pregnant. Hormones kicking my butt

  15. Different Pen colors

    Aneroo replied to cajrio's topic in General Nursing

    I only use black ink. Only time I've seen anything else used was in the Medex, they used a yellow highlighter to highlight discontinued

  16. Blood in Urine

    Aneroo posted a topic in General Nursing

    What would cause blood in urine? Urine appears clear and yellow, but urine dipstrips are positive for blood (urine is not very concentrated either). No back pain or any other symptoms to suggest...

  17. Blood in Urine

    Aneroo replied to Aneroo's topic in General Nursing

    Its' my pee. No nitrites, do have leuk's but that's been my norm anytime I test (what preggo doesn't have leuk's down there ). I know enough to get me into trouble. lol Thanks for the advice guys....

  18. Would like info on Pitt County Memorial Hospital

    Aneroo replied to L&DNurseDonna's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I am a new grad (May) who works at Pitt. For the most part, I've been pleased with my employment. I didn't expect it to be perfect, and it hasn't been, but it has been good. I had an awesome...

  19. Hickory NC

    Aneroo replied to relocatingsoon's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I LOVE Hickory! I grew up in a smaller town near there, called Conover. I actually live in greenville now! Would love to move back up that way once DH finishes nursing school. Hickory is a decent size...

  20. Shoe question...

    Aneroo replied to slu_rn's topic in Emergency

    I wear croc's. Love 'em. I'll probably wear Dansko's once this child is here and my ankles return to their normal size. :) I used to love wearing Candies, so I am hope the dansko's don't hurt too

  21. Does MD really stand for Mad Diva?

    Aneroo replied to OliveVinesRN's topic in General Nursing

    The diva part only made the think of one thing- One of the med docs here who wear short skirts and high heels. Cracks me up to see her RUNNING to a code halfway across the hospital. I expect to see...

  22. Thinking of becoming an RN - please help

    Aneroo replied to ruizl45's topic in Nursing Career

    You seem focused on the money and the benefits of working as a nurse. Think again. You do make money. You EARN it. We bust butt for our paychecks. Are you interested in it for the money? If so, you...

  23. Nurse evaluation testing PCMH (PBDS)

    Aneroo replied to PETE5605's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    PBDS is not that scary. It sounds horrible, it isn't. I do agree, travel nurses did not know they would be taking the test. Since they were experienced, it was said (basically), "Pass or lose the...

  24. Fertililty & cycle questions galore

    Aneroo replied to nurse_wannabe's topic in Ob/Gyn

  25. Need help with original trauma note

    Aneroo replied to critical nurse's topic in Emergency

    Great ideas! One of our preceptors would do this: She brought her orientee into trauma. They both recorded the trauma. One was the real notes, another was practice. That way later on they could...
