  1. He/She Said What!?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to BritBSNRN's topic in General Nursing

    Why? Why do you want to hear negative statements or make members dig up old and probably not very nice

  2. Receiving Negativity as an LPN/LVN

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

    OP, are you still a student or are you actually experiencing put downs because of your title? I personally have yet to see anyone belittled because they are an LPN as opposed to an RN. Unless you've...

  3. Licensing help

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Britthomson2's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    SDN? I'm missing

  4. How important is appearance?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to FieryPsychRN's topic in Nurse Management

    I think appearance is important everywhere---not just in the job arena! I'll say it, I judge the person in Tweety bird pajamas at Target (not just the bottoms, we're talking the whole she-bang!), or...

  5. Licensing help

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Britthomson2's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    IF you even come back to read, the answer is that you need to successfully complete a nursing program that included nursing theory, skills competence and clinicals. Taking a bunch of random classes...

  6. Licensing help

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Britthomson2's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Why didn't you just do the PVT trick? Or post here about it

  7. Insurance & Weight Loss Meds

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Another frustrating thing about people not understanding how insurance works: Insurance isn't saying you CAN'T have a mammogram. It's saying they won't PAY for it. You are welcome to get the test,...

  8. Insurance & Weight Loss Meds

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    EXACTLY!! IBM and BCBS sit down and decide what will be covered by BCBS for IMB employees. It is not always the big bad insurance companies that do or don't allow a procedure/medication to be...

  9. Insurance & Weight Loss Meds

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And insurance will tell him to eat less and move more! Our healthplan pays NOTHING for weight loss. No pills, diets, surgeries, NOTHING. And we have "good" insurance---others with our same carrier...

  10. "How are we doing today?"

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I can honestly say I do not talk this way to my patients. It's not a WE, I only care about how they are

  11. I just set my friend up

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Kaylle's topic in General Students

    Yikes. You just need to worry about yourself. End of

  12. Elephant in the China Shop

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to hcworker's topic in General Nursing

    Our responses are moot since op hasn't been (and probably won't be)

  13. Practice NCLEX question

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to guest769224's topic in General Students

    But

  14. Elephant in the China Shop

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to hcworker's topic in General Nursing

    What a weird first time/new account post. I highly doubt you'll be back OP! I think you're looking to stir up

  15. Thinking

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Jessicalynn7's topic in General Nursing

    I think you should go troll somewhere else, little girl!

  16. color coding staff

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to reecie54's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Why would it make our jobs harder by the color scrubs we're wearing? I don't understand your last option of the

  17. Pvt

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to nesh2013's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    what's with all of the

  18. What is the easiest way to get ACLS certified?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to celtickimba's topic in General Nursing

    Easy isn't always best. Besides, I think certification is pretty standardized. By the time you find the easiest way out, you could have just had the class done and over

  19. Why do hospitals continue use the incentive spirometer?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to felixis12's topic in General Nursing

    Another new account making an outlandish, unsupported claim and then disappearing. What is the appeal of

  20. Are you Facebook friends with your coworkers?

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

    My dept has about 45 people in it, I'm FB friends with 6-8 of them. None in my own pod, by design! Heck, only one in my pod even has my cell phone #, again, by

  21. HELP PLEASE! Received a job offer in NJ but I only have a NY license. What do I do now?

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to xxMichelleJxx's topic in General Nursing

    Dumb question? Why are you applying for positions that you're not "qualified" for, by way of a

  22. Taboo: 10 Things Nurses Should NEVER Say!

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    KNOWING you believe in such fluff as the word QUIET (because, it's just that, a word) would make me say it around you all day

  23. Taboo: 10 Things Nurses Should NEVER Say!

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Meh, I'm not a big believer in this. I'll say "it's quiet", SAYING those words doesn't change things. Just like "It must be a full moon". Full moon, Schmull moon---it's just another

  24. Did I screw myself out of this job??

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to nurselia's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I agree, it was a VERY bad move, but honestly, checking the IP address is pretty darned thorough! I would keep looking and keep my fingers crossed on this

  25. Drug Testing

    BuckyBadgerRN replied to level1's topic in General Students

    Well how nice of you to play games
