Has anyone read this book by Suzanne Gordon? I seem to remember a thread on here about it but I've used "Search" and can't seem to find it. What did you think about this booK? Does it realistically...
I'm sure that you will have CNA's working with you, who will be your eyes and ears when you can't be there. As other people have said, LTC is different from hospital care. You won't have to do head to...
Let me start off by saying that I'm not a nurse yet, however, I have been a doula for the last 8 years and have been present at ~200 births. If the doc was gowning up in the room, the nurse (or...
A very long time ago, my little brother found this little bug that made a clicking sound. He was about 3 y.o. and was enthralled with the sound the little bug would make. To get a better listen, he...

Oh, wow. That's such a sad story. I hope that they can complete this investigation to ensure that this does not happen again. My thoughts and prayers are with the family members involved in this...

I'm very sorry that "your" baby passed away. You have my thoughts as I know that this is very heartbreaking for your as well. The research you mentioned is very interesting. I do hope that they can...
I had posted this on another thread in here, but since the other thread was very old, I wasn't too sure that anyone would read it. So, if you all don't mind, I'd like to post it here. My very close...

I remember the ONE time I said the "Q" word, in L&D triage no less. The thing is, I should have known better!! The moment the word escaped my lips, I was backpeddling, big time. Before the triage...
Gotta love Snopes. They seem to take the time that those of us don't have in determining if info is unless or not. A few months ago they had a picture of what could have been an anacephalic baby....
When I went through CNA school at the end of last year, my instructor taught us this same thing. Yes, she was older, but awesome. I asked her why the end of the pillowcase had to face away from the...
Goodness, I couldn't agree with you more Eric. If given the choice, I would go for the pencil and paper test given twice a year instead of a test in which most takers feel absolutely rotten after...
Welcome RN2Beee to the Oklahoma nursing forum and to allnurses.com. We are very glad to have you!! :welcome: Tonkawa is right off I-35 heading north towards the Kansas border. It is south of...
We have been watering the lawn nonstop to keep it from turning brown. The hot wind has really burned a few trees around here. The leaves are already falling and I'd say it looks like fall is here -...
Quadlock, First of all, welcome to the Oklahoma board and allnurses.com. Glad to have you. :welcome: I absolutely agree with you that the EOPC at SFH is first rate. For those who don't know, EOPC is...
I have a bad taste in my mouth with Langston. First of all, their person who does their admission counseling for the nursing program accepted one of my anatomy classes for speech pathology, namely,...
My mom worked as an RN at St. Francis, and they had problems with the LPN's from Platt. However, I've heard recently that there haven't been as many problems and that the hospitals are accepting the...
Hi Leixlip, Read the "sticky" on top of the forum list that says "Number of NCLEX Questions, Students Please Read." It does a really good job of explaining how CAT tests works, and why you get 50%...

There was something very interesting on Intellicast, a weather forecasting site. They give the areas on which there's a high chance of women going into labor. It's not working tonight, but I'll give...

*sigh* I agree with LeahJet and the others. This thread was really fun and I had some really good laughs. For the ED nurses who are out on the front lines and see all sorts of things that may never be...
If you don't mind riding with a bunch of crazy Czechs (we are going to a Czechoslavakian family reunion) I'd say your more than welcome. :) I felt sooo badly for my SIL in Florida. She was due with...
