    To all London nurses.

    God be with you. You all, the nurses and your countryman, will be in my thoughts and prayers. This is very tragic. Please stay strong and

    A moose in ER

    Oh, now that's not something you see everyday in an ED. Looked like those residents were having fun taking the pictures. Too
  4. Congratulations to all of those who recently passed the NCLEX... now go celebrate! :) There's a very interesting thread on this in the NCLEX forum. It's the first sticky in the forum. Read it if you...

    Jury duty...

    I would be happy to serve if I'm not in school at the time. I've just never been called! Recently I've changed my name on my DL, changing my county of residence and I still haven't been called. I...

    Factors effecting your license/misdemeanors

    Ditto pricklypear. I would definitely check with your state's BON and explain your situation. As I don't know ALL your particulars and the BON would be the people to ask, that's where I would go if I...

    Would you marry your prison pen pal?

    Great advice, Kendra!! This thread reminds me of my early college years when I was 18-19 years old. There was this group on campus who encouraged the girls to get involved with this ministry - and...

    Jury duty...

    No, I've never been called for jury duty. BUT, I've had friends called in while in school. I believe that if you can prove that you are a full time student and in a program such as nursing, that you...

    What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    Sorry for the double. I guess this gives new meaning to the term "Hound of Hell." Scary. Keep these stories coming. They are quite fascinating, and from a born-again Christian perspective, I'm trying...

    What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    I know this was from a while back, and while this isn't a ghost story, I do agree with your theory. My mom and dad were on the way to the airport, when my dad started veering over to the other lane...

    Average CNA salary?

    That's what I thought... I'm curious to know if this is true in other areas of the country. Is salary.com accurate

    Heavy Lifting in the NICU

    OK, I'll try to make a long story short. Recently, I had a non-nursing job offer rescinded because I made an honest mistake at Employee Health. I have a herniated disc and I misread the questionnaire...

    Heavy Lifting in the NICU

    Yeah, I kind of figured that for the most part, the pts would be in the 1-9lb range. Except that we had an audiology teacher who worked in NICU and mentioned that she saw several postdates who took up...

    Can any RNs tell me if this is true

    I'm not a nurse yet, but I work in a hospital and I have chronic pain. For the moment, I do not want to discuss what type of pain, we'll just say it's severe, chronic pain. I hope that one day that...

    Average CNA salary?

    My question to you all is, how does your salary stack up to what salary.com says you should be making as a CNA in your area? I'm possibly about to take a CNA class, and salary.com says that it bottom...
  17. I'm not even in nursing school yet, but I bought both of those books. Just wanting to get a head start... Anyhow, I didn't really like the Donna Cardillo book as much as I liked Kelli Dunham's book....

    English, please

    I agree. When it comes to pt care settings, English should be the language spoken. It doesn't make the other pts feel comfortable when two techs are working over their bed and they are speaking their...

    IUD's pro's & Con's

    I got the Paraguard IUD placed about 2 weeks before I got married. You all who had little or no pain on insertion are lucky. I have a high pain tolerance and I was just about screaming. In fact, I...

    Our baby was stillborn... Please help me understand

    (((((gentle hugs)))) Nurse_wannabe... First of all, I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my very sincere condolences. As others have said, a lot of these demises occur when there is a cord...

    Do your on-call nurses come in if short?

    In our area, several hospitals have ECB (emergency call back) which serve as PRN nurses. If an area gets stuck and needs extra help, they call one of these nurses to come in at a moment's notice. They...

    Britney demanding background checks for her L&D nurses..

    I'm among those that think that she should have a homebirth as well. Lots of privacy, like space, at home, no one can hear you scream... :) I think that either the Star or Britney have a few...

    Heavy Lifting in the NICU

    BittyBabyGrower, Thanks for your answers. I don't know a weight restriction right now, but I will see my doctor in August and I will tell her what happened at that hospital. She knows about my plans...
  25. Hi Waterlily, I'm really sorry that I don't have a lot of the answers that you are looking for, but I'm wondering what a "Baylor Plan" is? It sounds like you'd need to be at that hospital for the...
