  1. Mandatory flu shots????

    Lie. Tell em' you got the shot. Go to Walgrens, get a receipt for something, tell em' you bought the shot. Photoshop someone else's receipt. Flu shots are a pharmaceutical gold mine. The flu kills OLD...
  2. What Do You Love About Nursing?

  6. Dialysis and Renal Nursing

    YOU are correct and way ahead of the game. It's the rare patient in my ICU that is there because of some non-self-contributory disease. I've heard that in England, you can't get a knee replacement if...
  7. Antibiotic Tubing

    Makes no sense and is illogical. If you follow that theory, you would have to use a separate and complete IV SET and TUBING for each antibiotic. If the antibiotic runs through the piggyback tubing,...
  8. Could Obamacare cause a shortage in nursing again

    Eight percent of nurses are Democrats. No one else to blame for Obamacare except for the people who voted for it. Coincidentally, about 80% of prison inmates are ALSO democrat. Nothing strange about...

    You didn't do a thing wrong. Screw
  13. Being an ugly nurse

    Lately I've been asked to have a female nurse fill in for me when doing bedpans, pee pee, etc. I'd rather have the women do it anyway...less work for me. But I'm surprised at the number of female...
  14. There's nothing worse than a FAT nurse!

    Imagine working in a heart unit and you've dealt with a patient all day post-op, with diet instructions, etc. And then you hand off the assignment to a night shift pig. Doesn't work. I'm glad Texas...

  20. PATIENT posting pictures on Facebook

    Interesting. I went to a a "Code Gray," (violent person) overhead page and was the first male staff member there. And was the ONLY staff member there for over five minutes. There was absolutely...

  23. A big, fat, huge NO VISTORS sign is most important of
  24. ADN plus a previous 4 year degree

    NOT true that it "means nothing." I'd rather have a well-rounded individual with some real-life experience than a plain old new grad
  25. Please be prepared for your interview...

    I've rarely been in the position of having to answer those silly HR type questions. And I am completely soured on hospitals and their lousy staffing levels due to "finances." I've got a ton of...
