    LCinTraining replied to TCool774's topic in General Students

    It did not sound like the OP couldn't be bothered. It sounded more like being overwhelmed with the amount of reading required. I think most of us can say they have been

  6. ATI is different: let's talk about it.

    LCinTraining replied to BlueEyedGuy's topic in General Students

    Right, but to reposition the patient many times requires getting assistance to boost them back up to the appropriate place in bed. So I'm still leaning toward O2, but don't ask me. LOL. I haven't...

    LCinTraining replied to GrodeRN's topic in General Nursing

    We have one who has refused care from nurses who have set boundaries, so now it is a matter of tricking them into thinking it is their idea. This particular one has driven people off of the spinal...

    LCinTraining replied to BlueEyedGuy's topic in General Students

    LCinTraining replied to fakebee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    please explain to me where you read that I whip out my phone wherever I am. Did I not say I wait until I am finished with patient care? I understand needing to find coverage before I leave work. But...

  14. What is it with nurses and cell phones? Just a vent.

  17. Overwhelming emotions right now

    LCinTraining posted a topic in General Students

    I think most of it stems from my inability to organize myself this time. I have to be meticulous or my ADHD gets out of control and things don't get handed in. I finally figured things out the second...
