  1. Lpn's being dumped?

    I'm not an LPN, I'm a concerned RN. They have started phasing the LPN's out, not a maybe. I'm concerned because these are good nurses that they're basically throwing away...
  2. Bush says limiting lawsuits will save healthcare

    I agree with what Kerry said, make the lawyer's accountable. If they bring forth a frivolous lawsuit, make them pay a fine big enough so that they stop doing that..other then that, you know who's making the money, it's the CEO's and the companies the...
  3. Lpn's being dumped?

    I just want to find out if other hospitals are basically dumping their LPN's, or is Allina the only one.....We have LPN's who have worked in the hospital more then 35 years who have been told that if they don't get their RN within two years they migh...
  4. Have anyone else heard of "basic care NURSES"?

    Again I say, the reason all of these people are coming up with all of this junk,the 6mo. unnurse, as I like to call it, is because they say there is a shortage out there. THERE IS NO SHORTAGE. It's the hospitals finding cheaper ways to get their li...
  5. Stressed out and Getting Out

    Yeah, nurses listen, there is not a nursing shortage, the only reason there are fewer nurses in the field is because we are treated so poorly... If we were treated better you would have an over abundance of nurses. It's really disgusting at my hosp...
  6. My First "Bad" Baby!!

    You did a great job...Isn't it great to hear about it from your peers though :balloons: :balloons: :balloons: :balloons:
  7. Show Bedside Nurses the Money

    Kudos from patients does make me feel good, and it makes me feel like they do appreciate the little things that I do for them, but that's not what I'm talking about. When I think about how much money the CEO's and higher-ups are getting I don't feel...
  8. How Hospitals CREATED A Shortage of Nurses

    Brownmn46- I just want to tell you that I sat here and sobbed as I read everything that you posted.....I have been trying to get a rise out of some other nurses to do something. I feel so vindicated by what you wrote. I've felt that my CHOSEN car...
  9. Anyone concerned about pt. care?

    Rah, Rah, Cheer, yahoo........I would love for ALL of us, as nurses to do something for ourselves, for our future, and for our patients.....Either go to Washington D.C. and march, or march to your own cities capitol on Nurses Day in 2005. I've wante...
  10. Nurses eating their young-venting

    I just want you to know that I have been one of those nurses, the older one, talking to the younger one....I had a newer nurse tell me from day shift that one of my patients was all ready to go, just sign papers and leave. I looked at the chart and ...
  11. Show Bedside Nurses the Money

    Fergus51, I can see where that would make an impression on the staff, but don't you think a raise or a bonus would make more of an impression then "candy"? I work at a place where they always try to come up with "non-monetary" ways of making us "hap...
  12. Anyone concerned about pt. care?

    All the paperwork is done for one reason and one reason only...to cover their a$$e$ and assets. I don't think that writing something down more than once is necessary. How about you? I think our jobs, as far as charting goes, have gotten past redun...
  13. Medical patients on post-partum floor?

    Dramaluvr, Did you complain to the Nurse Manager on that floor about your ordeal? I believe that if you don't compain about the care, the fact that your nurse probably didn't have any orientation to peds, I don't think anything will be done to take ...
  14. nurse patient ratio..

    I don't care how many assistants you have, that's freekin nuts:uhoh3: Get out of there as fast as your legs can carry you, cuz you'll be the one taking the fall.
  15. incompetent nursing

    I agree with watersnake, I got into the field because I could stand the sight of blood and I could deal with many different personality's. I used to love nursing, but it's gotten to the point where I look for excuses not to go to work... I don't lov...
