    Will I Ever Be Forgiven?

    MaxAttack replied to Denise Reddick's topic in General Students

    Unfortunately your best bet is to go to a community college and retake the courses. Universities can be silly. I received an A in statistics but had to retake it when I did my bridge to BSN...

    UWorld NCLEX-RN Review: A Test Prep with Great Practice Questions

    MaxAttack replied to Julia Liou's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This would probably feel less like a sales pitch if you did a head-to-head review as opposed to promoting a specific brand. At this point one of your two posts is essentially a pop-up ad in Headlines...

    Ethical Arguments Against Mandatory Vaccination

    MaxAttack replied to ldhrn73's topic in General Nursing

    I honestly have no idea what you're trying to convey but that last statement "People with very strong immune systems should be left to their own devices" I thought could use context. I am a healthy...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I personally tend to blame it on a couple things: 1. As part of the larger climate where everything is black and white, good or bad, trench warfare "us vs them" that's seen in everything from...

    Ethical Arguments Against Mandatory Vaccination

    MaxAttack replied to ldhrn73's topic in General Nursing

    This article specifically mentions factors that may be playing into this. There's nothing scientific about finding increasing trends and automatically attributing it to a single cause that scares you...

    Jury to Decide Fate of Nurse Accused of Murdering Babies

    MaxAttack replied to Julia Liou's topic in Nursing News

    I'm not entirely sure what the point of this article is. To me this seems to be another instance in a disturbing trend of making excuses for dangerous individuals that should never be allowed to...

    School Nurse/Vaccines

    MaxAttack replied to moomin's topic in School

    I'm curious if your independent research took into account both sides of this debate. Confirmation bias is a real thing and it jeopardizes the safety of everyone and the trust in our healthcare...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I don't see people getting shut down so much as being corrected when they post without knowing the details or when they're discussing things they have no experience with (both of which happen A LOT...

    Arterial Line Tubing Change

    MaxAttack replied to lisa333's topic in Critical Care

    A. The whole point is to reduce infection, right? If you do it this way you'll know all about the days old caked on blood sitting on that hub. Pressure, disconnect, scrub, connect new tubing....

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I'm also really curious how you believe Vanderbilt caused this? The biggest issues I see with this thread are posting without knowing the correct information (eg saying Vanderbilt is negligent...

    Ethical Arguments Against Mandatory Vaccination

    MaxAttack replied to ldhrn73's topic in General Nursing

    The fact that every company in healthcare is concerned about their revenue doesn't negate the evidence to support the safety and efficacy of vaccines. If we're actually going down the rabbit hole...

    Trauma Program Manager

    MaxAttack replied to Leah8183's topic in Emergency

    I've worked in trauma for most of my career. I'm always weary of managers who have limited experience in what they're managing. That being said anything can be learned and in a level IV it'll be...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    She's an even worse human than I thought. Come with me to Costa Rica to help me heal the trauma of killing someone due to my criminal negligence. I wouldn't be surprised if she goes full OJ...

    Small ER lab question

    MaxAttack replied to NurseL1998's topic in Emergency

    I don't work ER but a very busy level I trauma ICU and honestly I find our POC ABG/VBG with resus panel (hgb, glucose, K, etc) far more valuable in a critical situation than the actual lab with their...

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know what you're trying to tell me? It sounds like you disagree with something but I can't figure out what. Anyways how does one hit someone while stopped at a traffic

    Need advice about situation

    MaxAttack replied to Tired nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Nurses get treated like this because management lets them get away with it. Hopefully you're in a market with other options and can find a more supportive

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    No one is accusing her of outright murder. Think of someone who hit and killed a pedestrian crossing the street because they were looking at their phone while driving. They didn't intend to kill...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    She had her day and she was found guilty of criminally negligent homicide and gross neglect of an impaired adult. The question is do we give a nurse that was convicted of criminally negligent...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    This... is still not right. It hasn't been since you started saying it. BUT you're missing the point - simply read what you're pulling. Saying you shouldn't have to ever use your brain because the...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Yes. Just because the system will let me pull drugs for emergency situations means I should also pull them for routine reasons and given them without ever reading the vial or reading any warnings....

    You're kidding, right? That's not accurate. The upgrade had been completed already. By her own statements overrides were not

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    MaxAttack replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    The condition that necessitated the use of overrides at Vanderbilt was completed / done / finished / concluded. Hence why it's not a factor. RV herself stated she should have followed normal protocol...
