1. The STRESSFUL SITUATION NEWBORN

   CFitzRN replied to Klaudia Langa's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

   It sure sounds to me that you did everything right and in a timely manner. The fact you were so affected tells me you are a good and conscientious midwife, and one I'd have loved to have with me...

2. Should I Stay or Go?

   CFitzRN replied to PrettyGuardianPluto91's topic in General Students

   It is very difficult to discern exactly what happened here. Also I'm not familiar with an ED program (ADN?). If you're asking whether to continue at your current school to get your BSN or pursue your...

3. What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

   CFitzRN replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

   CFitzRN replied to spotangel's topic in General Nursing

5. A Kick of Gratitude

   CFitzRN replied to spotangel's topic in General Nursing

   I am so touched by your story, especially how you turned to our Lord at the darkest moment possible and allowed Him to hold and heal you. I am so inspired. God bless

   Oh look, more condescension. Imagine my

7. One Nurse's Approach to Discussing the COVID-19 Vaccine

   CFitzRN replied to nataliadab's topic in Disaster Preparation

   The basic premise of this article is condescension. "We are right, they are wrong, so how do we make them do what we want?" And this is what I find with the gene-therapy pushing crowd. They won't...

8. What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

   CFitzRN replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

   (To Doc WorkADay) I had somehow missed this, but enjoyed reading your story. Without going into detail (which would take the better part of a week, undoubtedly), I am a practicing Catholic who has...

9. School Shootings

   CFitzRN replied to OldDude's topic in General Nursing

   Broken families cause far, far more damage than most people will admit. Sure, there are a bunch of us who came from divorced parents, blended families, childhood trauma, and we didn't turn into mass...

10. School Shootings

    CFitzRN replied to OldDude's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think there is any one singular cause of these shootings, but I believe one of the most obvious and stark causes is the breakdown of the family. Missing fathers and America's broken boys -...

11. School Shootings

    CFitzRN replied to OldDude's topic in General Nursing

    Rhetoric like that doesn't help. There are something like 300 million guns in the US, so even if all law-abiding gun owners turned over their firearms, there would still be tens of millions of guns...

12. The Wrong Dose - A True Story of Medication Error

    CFitzRN replied to SafetyNurse1968's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    The kinds of nurses who immediately shame another nurse, yell, make a huge deal out of a mistake, are the nurses I would fear the most. They are prideful yet insecure, and they have a clear need to...

13. Beyond the Bedside: 10 Nurse Opportunities Outside of the Hospital

    CFitzRN replied to Melissa Mills's topic in General Nursing

    Whoa! That's really good. I'm guessing you have to be really good at IVs... I'd need some refreshing.

14. Beyond the Bedside: 10 Nurse Opportunities Outside of the Hospital

    CFitzRN replied to Melissa Mills's topic in General Nursing

    Also, don't forget Nurse Case Management. Like Julie above, I work with clients on a Medicaid waiver program, but I work with medically fragile children. I oversee their aide or nursing services,...

15. What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    CFitzRN replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think you would bore anyone with your stories. This stuff is fascinating. The tall skinny thing in a dark open field in Minnesota is pretty freaky too, LOL. I love how this thread just...
