    Hey whats those logos?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Cherish's topic in General Nursing

    Here's a partial explanation here. I guess there will be more announcements to come. It also might explain why countdowns aren't working....

    nurse & dr affair, what should I do?

    BabyRN2Be replied to sandee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Actually, I was thinking the same thing! I'm with the NOYB crowd. If it's not affecting the delivery of quality patient care or affecting the general work area without getting into personal issues,...

    Ethics Violation-Would you remain silent or challenge the system?

    BabyRN2Be replied to MissJanelle904's topic in General Nursing

    I agree in that you did the right thing. The least this professor could do is have one of his GA's (graduate assistants if you are at a larger university) sit in on the test. As others have said, you...

    Prenatals???

    BabyRN2Be replied to Jocie's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I definitely agree with SmilingBluEyes. Not only because of the TOS saying we can't give out advice, but there are sooo few OTC prenatal vites out there. My husband and I have recently decided to try...

    When patients lie about rides.....

    BabyRN2Be replied to TazziRN's topic in Emergency

    Maybe it just seems sedating because once the pain is gone, the patient can finally rest a little easier. Especially if they've been in pain for days with little to no

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That's what I try to explain. I really don't encourage clients to use castor oil at all because I've heard it could cause cardiac arrythmias in some people. I don't know if it's true or not, but who...

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've heard the same thing for a certain pizza sauce but can't remember for sure where the city is.. Chicago, Philly. It's supposed to cause labor within 24 hours. I've been reading another book...

    cna's who don't do their job

    BabyRN2Be replied to LanaBanana's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I'm so happy for you, Lana! I know that this has been a big problem for you. However, I wish that someone had the gumption to outright fire her, but that's just me. I'm soo glad that she's no longer...

    What do you think?

    BabyRN2Be replied to PACU queen's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    PACU Queen: I know that you are stressed awaiting your results from the NCLEX. Try to keep in mind some things that Eric has said (if you are a non-foreigned trained nurse, you have 85% chance of...

    OB T-shirt slogans?

    BabyRN2Be replied to JoniL&DRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    There were a few cutes ones on cafepress.com. You may want to check there for some ideas (without ripping off the copyright, of course. ). Here's one, that may or may not be overused: [Your hospital]...

    Fired after voicing concern about narcotic counts

    BabyRN2Be replied to paigeRN1962's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You are doing exactly what you should be doing: protecting yourself and your license. I'm glad that you already have a job because narcs is not an area in which you want to play around in. I worked at...

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    No, this is definitely not true. The cabin is pressurized to meet the same pressure that you'd find on the ground. Not even a sudden change in cabin pressure requiring O2 masks would cause PROM. This...

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    I've had a few doula clients who want to try it... until I tell them that it could lead to a big mess when it comes to delivery and

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    While I've never owned a cat in my life, I can see this as a plausible explanation. It's very interesting to see the root of some of these myths, and how they could possibly be true. I think that I've...

    phone calls no outsider would believe

    BabyRN2Be replied to JBudd's topic in Emergency

    I dated a meteorologist many years ago, and he did a report on "Barometric Babies." I sort of helped him with the report as he needed the name of an OB/GYN who could help him. The report basically...

    Failed at 75?

    BabyRN2Be replied to PACU queen's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    As others have said, people pass and fail the NCLEX with 75 questions, and people pass and fail with 265 questions. Keep in mind that the prioritization questions are the "higher level" questions. If...

    Cold weather causing pneumonia? *vent*

    BabyRN2Be replied to wannabesedated's topic in General Nursing

    Speaking as a person who has had pneumonia twice, once in August when the weather was in the upper 90's, and the second time this last September when the weather was in the 80's, it's just not true...

    I don't get the MA deal...

    BabyRN2Be replied to allthingsbright's topic in General Nursing

    I've come across this before and it's really upsetting when it happens. A medical assistant simply does not have the same amount of training that a nurse has and should not represent herself/himself...

    phone calls no outsider would believe

    BabyRN2Be replied to JBudd's topic in Emergency

    Oh, I see. I didn't catch that part, mom still being pregnant. I thought it referred to someone who recently had a baby shouldn't take a tub bath due to the fears that the baby would drown. I was...

    phone calls no outsider would believe

    BabyRN2Be replied to JBudd's topic in Emergency

    Let me see if I understand this: the baby dies if mom takes a tub bath? I've heard many great wives tales, but I don't understand the "pseudo rationale" for this one. Why would baby die if mom took a...

    time for my mea cupa

    BabyRN2Be replied to sheilagh's topic in General Nursing

    Just one question: why did you not seek out a chronic pain specialist when your PCP refused to order any more narcotics? Or did you and I missed that part in your post, and I'm sorry if I did miss it....

    What was the MOST ridiculous thing a patient came to the ER for?

    BabyRN2Be replied to JUSTYSMOM's topic in Emergency

    Wow, that's some serious denial on mom's part. Makes me sad for both mom and daughter just thinking about
