    Judy Mikovitz, Ph D and Anthony Fauci, MD

    Kooky Korky replied to Kooky Korky's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Trump is Trump, and evermore shall be so. If he would just stop talking, he'd be alright. He does, however, have the strength to stop paying for the protection of our allies, at the price of the...

    Judy Mikovitz, Ph D and Anthony Fauci, MD

    Kooky Korky replied to Kooky Korky's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Mikovitz claims he holds patents, which seems like an unethical situation because the research for them was paid for by you and me. Why should Fauci or anyone else own something and profit from...

    Judy Mikovitz, Ph D and Anthony Fauci, MD

    Kooky Korky replied to Kooky Korky's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Scary that you are totally sure about whatever it is you think you know. Do you think that certain credentials confer total, unquestioned truthfulness? Where is your curiosity? Where is your PROOF...

    My work is pressuring me to come in when I'm sick, please advise me

    Kooky Korky replied to DogLady's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Take care of yourself. I don't really know how to advise you. I think if you have masks and gloves and if you feel well enough to work, you should probably go to work. That was "probably", as in...

    Kooky Korky replied to Kooky Korky's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Seriously. The reason to give consideration to anyone about anything is that when you are on the outside, you are not on the inside. Just exactly, exactly how do we determine what research to believe...

    Where to go as a nurse if you dont want to work with patients at ALL?

    Kooky Korky replied to guest1074618's topic in General Nursing

    She didn't spend countless thousands of hours. The hours can be pretty well counted. Enmity toward humans? She just has had some bad experiences. And some people find animals much more rewarding to...

    So why don't you report her? She couldn't do what because she was expired? Go to RN school? So few now to her... Uh,

    Expired License Nurse

    Kooky Korky replied to lil'India's topic in General Nursing

    Don't tell your friend that you are notifying the BON. Do it anonymously. Why let it go? Why not protect the public by reporting that someone is possibly impersonating a

    Famous person as patient?

    Kooky Korky replied to MarkMyWords's topic in General Nursing

    Your friend shouldn't have smarted off. A simple smile and "I am sorry, I am not allowed to do that and anyway I have this deadly rash. Would you maybe like an enema?" ? Just

    Famous person as patient?

    Kooky Korky replied to MarkMyWords's topic in General Nursing

    It seems wrong to me. It's just really unnecessary and it might be HIPAA violation. Why chance it except maybe to your pillow

    Famous person as patient?

    Kooky Korky replied to MarkMyWords's topic in General Nursing

    I have taken care of doctors. Kind of awkward. One of my Instructors refused student nurses when she was in L & D. Smart lady.

    Question about prescriptions

    It's not the Primary's job. It's the surgeon's job. What will you

    Question about prescriptions

    Kooky Korky replied to MarkMyWords's topic in General Nursing

    The patient should not have the procedure if there is no one to drive him home. This should be made clear to the pt from the moment the procedure is scheduled. Usually a facility will have a nurse...

    Where to go as a nurse if you dont want to work with patients at ALL?

    Kooky Korky replied to guest1074618's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you gave too many instructions at once. Some people must be told each step separately. Repetition can be annoying. But you should have found a way to get their attention and had them hang up...

    Kooky Korky replied to guest1074618's topic in General Nursing

    OMG She doesn't necessarily have an internal problem. She just finds some people rude. Because they are. She doesn't necessarily have P-A disorder or unresolved emotions re: pt care and/or some...

    Durable Medical Equipment sales Cruise Ship Nurse. It's a chance to travel, although you would still see patients. Don't guess you would like teaching. Do students get on your nerves? Recovery Room...

    Refusing Care of a COVID-19 Patient Due to Inappropriate PPE

    Kooky Korky replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in Disaster Preparation

    How about giving flu shots this coming flu season? There are agencies that hire for this and for doing biometric screening (cholesterol, BP, ht, wt, EKG - very easy, pretty sedentary). You could work...

    Nursing Is No Longer Worth It

    Kooky Korky replied to AnonymousSuper's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I agree with everything you said but I wish you would help unionize. Don't leave without trying to get your peers, who are the biggest obstacle to nurses getting proper treatment by bosses, into...

    DCFS opinions?

    Kooky Korky replied to Rasberry_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    Their work load has nothing to do with mandated reporters and the rules we are required to follow. In this case, the nurse doesn't know what else might be going on in that home, in that child's

    Top Manhattan Hospital ER Physician Commits Suicide

    She was an ER Doc in NYC. She saw many patients die from, presumably, this horrible virus over the past few months. It seems to have overwhelmed her and she took her own life. WOW!. I am trying to...
