    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to Vonique's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to inquiringaide's topic in General Nursing

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to Alnitak7's topic in General Nursing

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to LNDRN19's topic in General Nursing

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to ShellyRSRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Oh, ok, sorry for the misspelling. But you get my point! It was very funny. All that eye rolling.....I really hate it when I see people do that eye rolling thing. Such a put down, but it really does...

  10. Staff nurses and their bad attitudes

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to ShellyRSRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That eye rolling thing gets me, too. I had a nurse manager who did that. She would do it in front of people, behind people's backs, in meetings, etc. Once, a co-worker copied a picture of a guy out...

  11. is this considered a drug diversion?

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to Ms.RN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to MissDandelion's topic in General Nursing

    Tell em you're going thru the" change". (I am going thru the change and I get flushed quite often). For a female it sounds like a plausible enough reason. Just laugh it off and say, "Oh another one...

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to Amberjade's topic in General Nursing

    Several people have given different scenarios of what might be happening with your mother's time and pay of which any one of them could be true. But I have one suggestion.....if I'm reading your...

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to BackfromRetirement's topic in General Nursing

    1dyclsr2rtrmnt replied to sasha2lady's topic in Patient Safety Issues
