  1. Air in IV lines/syringes

    CFitzRN replied to kcochrane's topic in General Nursing

    FWIW, our Pharm instructor told us that up to 40 ml was "safe" but I've read other research that indicates that there is no "safe" number. What causes seemingly no problems with one person may be...

    CFitzRN replied to kcochrane's topic in General Nursing

    Ah yes, the pie hole. Such a technical term you chose to

  3. Here we go again . . .

    CFitzRN replied to sunnycalifRN's topic in General Nursing

    I know exactly what you mean. It is uncanny. And unkind! One day bleeds into the next, and into the next, etc. It will be Christmas again before we know it and we'll be schlepping out our...

    I agree, even though when they were so popular, I was a kid and thought they were horrific. Now I just pretend not to like

  5. Health Care Bill

    CFitzRN replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    Haha - if there is any conceivable means (or inconceivable, it matters not) of blaming Bush for any problem under the sun, they will do

  6. New health care bill..

    CFitzRN replied to Keptonkurtis's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    To cicatrixx15: This is called "passionate discourse". If you are too fragile to deal with it, perhaps a debate thread is not the place for you. No one has screamed. No one has "gotten their...

  8. New health care bill..

    CFitzRN replied to Keptonkurtis's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    It's selfish of people to be concerned about how some major legislation may affect their ability to provide for their families? Really? Here's an idea. When you DO find a job, you and all your...

  9. Health Care Bill

    CFitzRN replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    Everyone blames Bush, loudly and clearly. The truth is, Iraq had defied numerous demands by the UN to allow access by the UN Security teams to come in and inspect for WMDs - time after time after...

    Ditto.

  11. Health Care Bill

    CFitzRN replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    Yes - as though they are to be held up as the standard. They are a study in inefficiency, fraud, waste and they're only getting worse every year. I think "the conservatives" had some pretty d.a.m.n...

  12. Health Care Bill

    CFitzRN replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    If you're so gung-ho on the Socialist way of life, perhaps The United States of America is not the place for you. Feel free to explore other

  14. Health Care Bill

    CFitzRN replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    What, so I just dreamed up the enormously government-expanding health care bill that was so egregiously and underhandedly passed late last night? The one that accounts for 1/6th of this nation's...

    All I can say about this entire post is

  16. Health Care Bill

    CFitzRN replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    There is a ton of mismanagement, fraud and waste in both Medicaid and Medicare. I guess the answer is to force an infinitely more HUGE government-run health care system down the peoples' throats....

  17. Will the real Dr. House plz stand up!

    CFitzRN replied to Mr. Evans's topic in General Nursing

    Bahaha! I'd have bowed and kissed that doc's feet. Or maybe just

  18. New health care bill..

    CFitzRN replied to Keptonkurtis's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And I hope that the nurses who voted for Obama and who are blindly and ignorantly applauding this ill-conceived legislation will be next to

  19. Will the real Dr. House plz stand up!

    CFitzRN replied to Mr. Evans's topic in General Nursing

    EXACTLY. I have learned that, as a medical professional, I know way too much to watch these shows. I spend all my time yelling at the television about how they could NEVER REALLY DO

    I don't. I am "type B" to a T (haha) and I am a super-stickler for proper language

    CFitzRN replied to Bormio's topic in General Nursing

    There would be a lot more than bargaining in this house! I have 4 sons - all at or near their teens - and they despise the whole "vampire" genre. They despise the hysteria surrounding the genre....

    CFitzRN replied to Bormio's topic in General Nursing

    LOL - they're mandating that you date black guys? Asking? That is too funny. I make the same fast-typing error (oin) and several others that I am constantly having to fix. I may be a stickler but...

  25. nurses and spelling

    CFitzRN replied to Bormio's topic in General Nursing

    A typo - whether on a resume, a patient chart or a plan of care - and whether an accidental slip of the finger or simple misspelling or poor use of the language - can be a very bad thing for many...
