What do you do with people that keep coming back every 2 weeks or some that think they are smarter by getting discharged from 1 hospital then going to another and saying the magic words. As a society, what do we do with these people?

Read in entirety: Nurse attacked, brutally beaten by Elgin Mental Health Center patient

These psych facilities continue to not get it. You staff for safety in Psych. Sue the facility.

Taking my 1st ADN-BSN class. Thinking of dropping it with only 1 week left. 1st class and already a 6 to 8 page paper. A concept analysis of 1 of the following 4 words: Caring, Hope, Trust, or Fear. This is absolutely ridiculous. I have abs...

At my facility, we don’t have 400mg Seroquel tabs so we give 2 of the 200mg. if a patient only takes 1, I can’t force them to take 2. in my case if they agree to take 1 instead of 2 that’s what they will get and I will chart it. now if it’s a 300mg t...

Muno, I’ve read and enjoyed your posts for years but in this instance, I don’t even know where to begin to respond. I am a diabetic, wearing a insulin pump right now, intentionally in ketosis, and have been for a long time like many diabetics.

I've done quite a bit of looking into this, the research I've done leads me to believe not to admin Zyprexa and Ativan together in same syringe. I can't really find any good compatibility info in the resources I've looked at though. It happens all th...

I work in a 36 bed facility. Each nurse gives report to oncoming nurse that is assigned patients. The assignment from shift to *** can vary slightly so you may get report from 2 nurses or even 3+ maybe depending on who did an admission that got place...

These fill in nurses crossing the picket line for $840 a day in Chicago. Good money now, but don’t let those 2200 nurses see your face. Don’t cross a picket line.

Difficult to comment on salary without knowing where you're at. 120k in one place might be 150k in another place. All depends on cost of living.

I deal with fake falls all the time. When they do it, we discontinue all narcs. Narcotics are fall risk drugs and we don't want them to fall again.

If I'm reading it right, it's sliding scale, that's just correcting a high sugar so I totally get that, doesn't matter if they eat or not. Now if it was a scheduled 15 units then I would be curious if what I said above my edit is happening.

Why? I'd rather be fired and possibly collect unemployment while I seek new job.

Union hospital on top of saturated market. People get hired at Stroger and stay.

The is no requirement for BSN to obtain magnet status. It is 1 of the biggest lies in nursing next to Joint Commission caring about having a closed bottle at your workstation.

ADN programs at community colleges are extremely difficult to get in to. They are inexpensive and extremely competitive. Accelerated BSN programs are usually expensive, but you'd end with a BSN in the same time-frame.

Every other news source that reported it called her a nurse too. Sadly, the girl is dead. Let's let her be a nurse in memory and not worry about if she was one or not and which news organization reported it.

I haven't read all the comments and I hope someone has already said something similar. Matt Lauer supposedly physically touched. I am a male nurse and I "sexually harass" every single female on my unit and they do it right back. I wouldn't have it an...

On rare occasions, I give myself insulin through my shirt, but would never do on a patient.

The 2 biggest lies in nursing right now is that Joint Commission cares about drinks in the nursing station and that Magnet Status has something to do with BSN push. Neither are true.

Another tall I found is Landau 7489. Which Cherokee did you find with 32" Center Back Length? The 4701? I don't know about the stretch. I'm on a hunt too, my 4701's are getting worn out and I'm so disappointed they are discontinued.

Larger sizes don't usually give more length.

Cherokee 4701. I'm 6'4" and plenty of length. It is specifically a Tall Sized Scrub top. EDIT - Unfortunately, this top may have been discontinued as I'm looking around at different online shops.

Based strictly on the 4 things you have listed, I'd tell you Resurrection University.
