  1. 4th day on the floor and.....

    Old.Timer replied to KaksRN's topic in General Nursing

    How did it

  2. white underwear under white scrub bottoms?

    Old.Timer replied to ashleymarie23's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Can't imagine why they would require white which is totally visible vs flesh toned which is invisible unless it's their way of checking to make sure you are indeed wearing underwear. :)

  5. The First Day of the Rest of My Life

    Old.Timer replied to KaksRN's topic in General Nursing

    Welcome to the profession. I hope you find it as rewarding as I have. Indeed, it is also quite challenging. Print out what you just wrote and keep it accessible for a quick read when you are unable...

  6. What do you think of this?

    Old.Timer replied to handyrn's topic in General Nursing

    Are you guys for real when you imply that OP might want to consider suing

  7. TOO OLD

    Old.Timer replied to lawandaluxnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Alright Kcmylor, Come on, the first one or two comments were actually pretty funny and I commented as such. However, I have to agreee with those that have commented that the broad stereotypical...

  8. TOO OLD

  9. First med error

    Old.Timer replied to LPN9816aj's topic in General Nursing

    Very well said

  10. Bitter dried up nurses that need to RETIRE

    Old.Timer replied to mindlor's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Well that's your problem right there. Studying all day and then arguing with and about old, bitter, dried up nurses all night would skew anyone's view. Get out, live a little, broaden your horizons...

  11. Privacy rules for reproductive history

    Old.Timer replied to GMHarmony's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Geez that makes me beyond mad. People can be such malicious busybodies. Through the years, I have had various different people ask me just how important it is to report a history of a first trimester...

    Old.Timer replied to Lucky724's topic in General Nursing

    That is great news re your old job. So glad it all seems to be working

  13. Job offer, accepted now "new" information regarding position given - feel duped!

    Old.Timer replied to Lucky724's topic in General Nursing

    Is there any chance you will be compensated for travel but that is wasn't mentioned? I realize it's entirely possible, but I'm having a hard time understanding how they really think someone will...

  14. RN tattoo

    Old.Timer replied to jackson145's topic in General Nursing

    I realize I wasn't clear. Indeed, the general public, when polled, do rate us well. I was referring to the level of respect shown to us by medical and other healthcare professionals. That is a very...

  15. RN tattoo

    Old.Timer replied to jackson145's topic in General Nursing

    Nurse Pinup girl tatoo! And yet, as a professional group, we still wonder why our reputation and level of respect is often sub-par to other professionals. Why wouldn't it be if you have nurses walking...

  16. Patient rights v. Clinical instructor?

    Old.Timer replied to studentnurse0383's topic in General Nursing

    Am I the only one that finds it a bit sad that students would behave as if they can't be bothered and feel like they should be promoted from doing AM care?? Excellent suggestion to slip the hospital's...

  17. VFib Arrest after heaven discussion

    Old.Timer replied to curtiv's topic in General Nursing

    I do not see popping in to say hello and let him know that you are glad he is doing well as any different than when we would stop by when a patient had been transferred to a different floor. Now, if...

  18. Personal info was shared -HIPPA violation?

    Old.Timer replied to Quienes's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I have to disagree, I believe it is a big deal. It is a federal regulation that is integral to our profession. I think most would cringe and/or question their knowledge base if : Attorneys used...

  19. failed lift test, may have lost job offer..

    Old.Timer replied to lovescapeRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I'm with Chin Up, they're definitely weeding out. I think it's an attempt to hire the healthiest of the healthy in an effort to control their healthcare costs for employees. Just as car insurance...

  20. Magnet status? Hospitals choosing BSN new grads. Important!!!! over ADN??

    Old.Timer replied to mirc88sl's topic in General Nursing

    When you say you've had your heart set on TCU since Day 1, can you put into words all that encompasses for you? Don't think that anything is too frivolous to mention. You say you are transferring in -...

  21. 0.9 points kept me from graduating with my ADN. What to do?

    Old.Timer replied to Jess1980's topic in General Students

    I'm not going to weigh in wrt your qualifications, test taking skills or eventual ability to pass NCLEX. I have no way of knowing that, however, I really do feel for you and wish you the best. You...

  22. Personal info was shared -HIPPA violation?

    Old.Timer replied to Quienes's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    to those that asked why she was involved, it's her father. others indicated it's a misunderstanding. i don't see how you can come up with that. unlicensed "care-giver" on visitor's visa = illegal,...

  23. Is this professional?

    Old.Timer replied to Jenni811's topic in General Nursing

    i'm quite certain there are more compelling topics, but this is the one the title of the thread inquired about. truthfully, it is at least more interesting than one more inquiry on mainboard that is...

  24. Is this professional?

    Old.Timer replied to Jenni811's topic in General Nursing

    Foolish. Looking. And then eventually, as it always does, we'll have a thread wondering why, as a group, we are not always viewed and treated with the respect accorded to other autonomous professional...
