  1. Delegation question

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to blueskyy's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    It's not delegation when you are asking a task of a laterally qualified peer. Sounds like your coworker needs a team spirit

  2. Can I ask to work exclusively day shifts?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to kassiahgp's topic in General Nursing

    You can ask. Good luck with

  3. Patently false rumours of LVN phase out.

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Redmiata1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    And BAM! OP has been schooled. But actually, I seriously doubt she gets it. Too narrow-minded and

  4. Patently false rumours of LVN phase out.

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Redmiata1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hit the quote button please. That way we know who you're yipping at. To be quite honest, regular posters are VERY tired of new accounts being created just to again hash over very old and beat to...

  5. Patently false rumours of LVN phase out.

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Redmiata1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Actually, I've been a nurse for longer than 4 years. I just haven't gone back and changed that in my profile (kind of wish AN would update that automatically!) I can hang blood, have mad-azz IV...

  6. Exit Interview. Honest or not?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to sungrl01's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    In my experience, exit interviews are a joke. They SAY they want to hear everything, but nothing changes. We lost an RN in our pod back in January. She WAS brutally honest in her exit interview...

  7. Coworker physically abusive to patients

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

    This is what I said. What Libby posted was NOT bullying. I don't understand your reply to

  8. Coworker physically abusive to patients

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

    Pointing out to you what your obligations are as a MANDATORY REPORTER does not make Libby a bully. You obviously feel this isn't right in your gut, that is clear. Do the thing you're REQUIRED to do...

  9. 40 yr old with GED. Is a MSN even possible?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to shamis's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I won't lie, nursing school is hard. But it's that way regardless of how old you are OR what your previous education consists of. I say, if this is your dream, follow

  10. Unethical?

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

    Searching SEVERAL previous threads on this exact topic will give you many responses to

  11. Help! Failed NCLEX five times, out of school for 9 years

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to cpmom's topic in Retired Nurses

    I'd be careful. Illinois might not license you with this back door approach. You've failed to obtain licensure by the standards that they have

  12. Additional LPN Certifications

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to BeachBliss114's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    What kind of certifications are you looking

  13. Why we can't administer insulin near umbilicus?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Pink68's topic in Patient Medications

    Homework? What does your instructor tell

  14. How do I get over the discouragment of not doing skills in clinical?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to nevergiveup2016's topic in General Students

    Our instructors kept fanatical records of who got to do what, no reminding required. Are you still doing clinicals as an RN

  15. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    Based on OP's other posts, I found this thread to be more of a forum for her to humblebrag about how's she's an unlicensed personnel who runs circles around licensed nurses when it comes to IV...

  16. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    Wait. Are you REALLY equating pubic hair removal to sexual ASSAULT? What is wrong with

  17. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    a CNA is not allowed to start an iv in any facility I've ever worked in. I've never worked for an entity that allows LPN's to start IV's either. My state allows LPN's to do so, but in four different...

  18. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    In her user name! Also, read some of her other

  19. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    You're a CNA being asked by nurses to start IV's? That's more concerning to me than any overgrowth of hair

  20. How to address a patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to nurse4sale's topic in General Nursing

    What have you been saying for the last 20 years? I really don't understand what the problem is. Trends change, and her not liking that 20 years ago doesn't mean it's taboo

  21. How to address a patient

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to nurse4sale's topic in General Nursing

    What did said instructor tell you to use for

  22. Ready to resign (after 7 months) for dream job

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to SimplyNicole's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I'm not sure of the dilemma. You hate this job and may land your dream job. The answer seems obvious to

  23. Fired from first job..."not eligible for re-hire"

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to run.for.the.roses's topic in General Nursing

    Not making it off of probation for attendance issues is kind of a big deal, in my opinion. I also probably wouldn't have been to bold to announce that you were ready to fly solo and come off of...

  24. What to ask: interviewing a nurse practicing in other country.

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to EternalFeather's topic in General Nursing

    What sort of questions have you come up

  25. Visible tattoos

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to brittiany96's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    There are probably 100 threads on this already. Literally. I would read some of those to start
