    What does this term mean

    SoldierNurse22 replied to das729's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Now that you know the meaning of "maceration", the sentence should make sense. As das729 said, maceration occurs when healthy skin comes into contact with water, softens and breaks down. So if you...

    Lazy coworkers

    SoldierNurse22 replied to SU2013's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Unfortunately, this is a common argument amongst the small-minded. Typically, those with no real knowledge of the military assume that we're loose cannons, mouth-breathing grunts or at our very best,...

    Thoughts on CPR?

    SoldierNurse22 replied to Carpediem1012's topic in General Nursing

    OP, this is a pretty easy question. The method of CPR utilized depends on the setting. If you're on the street, compressions only. The decreasing pH of the blood in a person who is not exchanging...

    Lazy coworkers

    SoldierNurse22 replied to SU2013's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Oh yes, yes. Please bring on the assumptions, military stereotypes and generalizations about my character/nursing abilities/compassion because you don't like what I have to say. It will clearly...

    Applying out of state? Licensure

    SoldierNurse22 replied to sugar12's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Most hospitals require that you have an active license in their states before you'll be eligible to apply. Work on figuring out where you'd like to go, check out the job market, and then apply for a...

    Do you ever contend with pesty ancillary staff?

    SoldierNurse22 replied to RNdynamic's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This has to be one of my biggest pet peeves about working days. The offenders are almost invariably looking to shove off a task that they don't feel like completing onto the nurse. The keyword is...

    The Red Line of NA's Who Ask Lots of Questions

    SoldierNurse22 replied to cd365c's topic in General Nursing

    I encourage techs to ask questions of me. However, as PPs have said, there is a time and place for certain questions that do not directly pertain to your job as a tech. Did you get a blood glucose on...

    Is it *that* hard for everyone??

    SoldierNurse22 replied to AspiringNurseMW's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was a traditional college student. I not only enjoyed but excelled through pre-reqs. I ate up the hard sciences and found them fascinating. OP, don't believe the "OMG, pre-reqs/nursing school is...

    Air Force/Decision-making help needed!!!

    SoldierNurse22 replied to rnx24yrs's topic in Government, Military

    I don't recommend folks join the service right now in the nurse corps unless they're interested in doing nothing other than military nursing. It's not the party folks will tell you it

    Narcan

    SoldierNurse22 replied to PsychNurseBoyMom's topic in Patient Medications

    That's a bunch of crap. We used to give narcan on a semi-regular basis. We had no monitoring capabilities on my ward and we didn't transfer patients

    Are LPNs being phased out?

    Army Reserve

    SoldierNurse22 replied to jedi88's topic in Government, Military

    As I understand it, the Army is no longer offering a board certification retention bonus. A friend of mine signed on for another 4 years at $20,000 a year and isn't sure she'll see the bonus at

    Shy introverts can be great at nursing!

    SoldierNurse22 replied to RNBuni's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I enjoy nights. I'm very definitely an introvert and a natural night owl. It's difficult for me to tell what motivates my love for nights more: my introversion or my admittedly strange sleep...

    Male patient refuses Female Nurse

    I'm sorry this has happened to you. If the sexes had been reversed, you'd have a media-worthy story on your hands. All people--regardless of their sex--deserve to be treated with respect and to be...

    When I worked at a major military medical facility, nursing was routinely screened for PTSD. We cared for Soldiers who had endured significant traumas. Hearing their stories repeatedly put us at...
