My sister and her husband both smoked like chimneys. However they are complusive label readers. A trip to store for 10 items takes an hour with them. I said "its a can of peas, the ingrdiants didn't change." They no longer eat any prepared sandwich m...

did you guys hear about the 70 year old who went to the hospital shot his ailing wife then shot himself. She died and he died several days later. it happened last week.

QVC sells neck coolers. Basically, its a bandana with cooling gel in the center. You just soak in plain water and it gets cool. And generally stays cool for several hours. I have the same problem and this helped. I'm not sure if it would be allowed i...

I noticed that GEICO customer service has a new script. 2 times lately I had to call them and the end the call they all say " Is there anything else I may do to provide you with excellant service?!" I was waiting for them to say "I have the time."

Woody must not be reading the same post as the rest of us. Security had already been called and did nothing. Then police were called. If proper channels do nothing then you gotta do what you gotta do.

Someone one nurse doesn't jive with a patient and another one might. But a consenses of all 13 nurses and 4 docotrs tells me something.

I think that as soon as this becomes available that, people will be pushing for it to be covered by insurance. Very expensive for a none life saving organ transplant. It doesn't seem worth the risk. And like others have mentioned the are so many chil...

In my family of six children (with insurance) only one ever went to an ER. And that was because she got run over by a car. Its called an Emergency Room for a reason.

Give her enough rope...

Like I said show me the post where someone talked bad about an MA. And I will stand corrected. What I have seen is some Registered and Licensed Nurses express astonishment that MAs are being taught that they 'can do everything a RN can do.' By the w...

Once again An MA is not a nurse. An MA is not a nurse. An MA is not a nurse. I haven't seen any actual nurse "down" an MA on this thread. I have seen nurses comment negatively about MAs who pretend to be nurses. Nurses do not "step on" toes of MAs. ...

:nono:Very rude to post a question and then insult repliers. Your original question has already been answered. No it should not affect being nurse.

Is there any reason that you can't be a travel CT tech? I see ads for travel radiology positions. LIke you said you only have to deal with the patient for a short time in radiology. In nursing you have them for 12 hours and many days. You will hate n...

Thanks for the laugh

You always have a wealth of information. You serve not only your patients well, but you serve your profession well by having this knowledge of the history of your field. In this discussion most nurses have agreed that protecting the title Nurse is im...

1. But yet, here you are on a website for nurses. Hmmmm interesting. 2. I do not have to watch my attitude. The only person who may tell me to watch my attitude is a moderator. 3. If you become a PA maybe one day you will understand. When a unlic...

Yeah but Guess what? You are still not a nurse. Attacking a Nurse here on allnurses will still not make you a nurse. Hanging out on a Website called Allnurses will also not make you a nurse. Working in a doctor's offcie will not make you a nurse. ...

IN everyday life the simplest title is appropriate. But in a published work most authors list their credentials. I think that's ok. If you got it, flaunt it.

Send an email to your boss. Because he/she can always deny any verbal conversation.Check you policy and procedure manual on what do do for a suspected HIPAA violation. And then follow that guideline as if it were any patient. Notify appropriate perso...

Hi Miss Mab, Contact The Center for Nursing Advocacy. The organization purpose is improve media portrayal of nurses. Also you can report to state BON. Contact them at [email protected]. THey would be all over this. They start letter w...

Very informative Dutchgirl. thank you.

You did the right thing. Don't let anybody tell you different. Congratulations on the good save.

I think the local coroner overrules any such practice. I am famaliar with the coroner generally wanting the body out within 4-6 hours. I never heard of any jurisdiction allowing a body to remain in home for 72 hours.

Calling oneself a nurse when one is not bothers me on many levels. Mostly the title is one that is earned after much hard work. Secondly and personally many times patients have done some inappropriate thing such as those mentioned becuase "the nurse ...
