  1. Video RN screaming, dragged into police car d/t refused blood draw on unconscious patient!

    RunnerNurse09 replied to SummitRN's topic in General Nursing

    Have you been through police training? Again, a broad generalization. If it's not ok to do this with nursing, or any gender/race/religion, why is it ok here? This cop was an aggressive bad Apple...

  2. For-Profit NP admissions... I thought they were joking!

    RunnerNurse09 replied to SummitRN's topic in Advanced Practice

    Wow! That is incredibly sad and disturbing! Why isn't this being stopped? It truly is sad for those of us attending reputable, highly regarded schools. From what I have read, many employers are...

    RunnerNurse09 replied to SummitRN's topic in General Nursing

    Resisting arrest is not lawful. Yes , the cop was wrong and she was wrongfully arrested. But think for a minute what it would be like if everyone who was ever placed under arrest was allowed to...

  7. Nurse Practitioners: Shortage or Surplus

    RunnerNurse09 replied to shibaowner's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is not true at all. I have yet to find ANY job listing for an NP in any setting that has stated that they require a DNP. And I have been reviewing job listings in 2

  8. Mom suing nurse after suffocation accident

    RunnerNurse09 replied to MunoRN's topic in Nursing News

  10. Mom suing nurse after suffocation accident

    RunnerNurse09 replied to MunoRN's topic in Nursing News

    What about in other countries where this is actually what women do? Have babies and take care of them? Where on earth did this princess mentality come from I the US? Yes, having kids is exhausting,...

    RunnerNurse09 replied to bluegeegoo2's topic in General Nursing

    Years ago when I was a nursing assistant in the er, as a female I used to chaperone on gyn exams. One woman decided to use a regular kitchen sponge as a method of contraception. She left it in...

  14. Adult-Geriatric Primary Care NP or...?

    RunnerNurse09 replied to David Offenbaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    RunnerNurse09 replied to LovingMom1's topic in General Nursing

    You did a phenomenal job of caring for your mother, and couldnt have done any better than you did. As others have said, she was very ill and you did NOTHING WRONG. How lucky she was to have such a...

  18. Nursing students who want to be NP's

    RunnerNurse09 replied to Teaching the future's topic in General Nursing

    I was quite surprised to see that the number one ranked NP program in the nation (according to US News) requires only one year of full time RN experience, and the GPA requirements are just a 3.0....

  19. Nursing students who want to be NP's

    RunnerNurse09 replied to Teaching the future's topic in General Nursing

  24. Thought I had been punked. I. Can't. Make. This. Stuff. Up.

    RunnerNurse09 replied to Cattz's topic in School

    The kicker is that I actually worked in an emergency department that knowingly allowed one of its nurses to care for patients while ill with a stomach virus. They acutally medicated her with tylenol...
