  1. Taking a year off after Graduation

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Nursestudent103.2's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Yes, but factor in taking a year off before looking, and then another year to FIND that first job, OP is now two years out of school. Bad advice,

  7. Going to be fired?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Meridian2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This non-nurse offered a respectful, well thought out opinion that quite frankly was a delight to read after a couple by another non-nurse who insists on opening his pie hole repeatedly on this...

  10. Going to be fired?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Meridian2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Go away with your sad, tired cliches. Op is not a new nurse, so it doesn't even apply. I'm not sure what nursing advice you can offer op

  11. Going to be fired?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Meridian2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Bullsheet. Not everyone does it. Seriously, if this is your attitude in real life, I totally get why there is a target on your forehead and fellow nurses have no problem reporting your mistakes and...

  12. Going to be fired?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Meridian2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Unless you've worked the NOC shift, you've NO idea what goes on there. My sympathy level is very low for you, OP. You HAVE made serious mistakes, you DON'T acknowledge the seriousness of them. I'm...

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to RiskManager's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Fabulous, informative response. Everyone wants to umbrella everything under "HIPAA" and that is not always the

  14. Use of cellphones while at work

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to givxnchy's topic in General Nursing

  15. Use of cellphones while at work

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to givxnchy's topic in General Nursing

    So you are BLANTANTLY violating your facility's policy. NOT cool. Why are you going to need your keys, wallet and cellphone on you at all times? Doesn't make sense at

  16. Do lpns give vaccinations?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to naomifain's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    False. TONS of flu vax are given to people after they are admitted. Same is true of LTC--lots of flu and pnuemo vax given each

  17. Do lpns give vaccinations?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to naomifain's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    New account, your ONLY post (you haven't even bothered to respond to those kind enough to give you their time and thoughts), but I'll bite. Choose a different line of work. Something tells me you...

  18. BSN and Associate Nurses Are Neck and Neck. Will This Change?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to allnurses's topic in General Students

    Sigh. Another drinker of the nursing shortage

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Jeanne Ramick's topic in General Nursing

    Wow not here! It's all about personal responsibility, if you're responsible enough to have peoples lives in your hands, I'd hope you're responsible enough to remember to renew the literal key to your...

  24. Is this discrimination?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to WheresMyPen's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Absolutely not discrimination. As for everything the daughter says, you know it's not true, try not to let it bother you. It sounds like you dodged a bullet by being taken off of his care! Focus on...

  25. Will I become a bad nurse? How should I change?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to blueus's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure what to think at this point. You don't like to see ANIMALS being treated unkindly, yet you admit when you're angry, you want others to be angry as well. I'm coming to the conclusion...
