  2. Bear Wanders Through Hospital in Virginia

    I understand both sides, believe me , I do. However, I know around here too often "cops" or authorities shoot first and ask questions later when it comes to animals. Perfect example the "patton...
  3. Bear Wanders Through Hospital in Virginia

    What a shame. There were probably plenty of ways to handle that besides killing it. Gotta love the south Animals are merely disposable around

  7. Medicaid. Is it being abused?

    My gma. had to give up all she had until she had not a single penny left in order to get into a nursing facility. She is bedridden , had a small savings but could not afford full time care in the...

    Oh PATIENT safety !!! I just skimmed over your post and I was thinking you were worried about HER safety ! That's a whole different ballgame ! I have a loooong way to go !
  9. Worried about co-worker

    I'm not a nurse, but if it were me right now I would just ignore it. Sounds like she is begging for attention. She probably won't last long. Plz. don't slam me! :uhoh21: just my opinion
  10. Is becoming a Nurse hard?

    I am NOT nurse so I can't speak 100% but I think there are aspects to every career/ job that suck. There are ALWAYS a**holes in every field just lurking and planning schemes. Every job and field I...

    As someone going into nursing next year, i really like hearing that, it gives me hope
  12. staff RN's in LTC?

    That's good...... I have always had a very soft spot for the elderly my entire life. As a child I used to volunteer at a nursing home.

  14. staff RN's in LTC?

    I am interested in the answers you get. My goal is to become an RN yet I would like to work in an assisted living home, or with the elderly in an ltc setting... the problem is I have been told lately...
  15. Your priorities

    I am curious about something, does the admin. "look down" on nurses when they don't constantly work their days off, etc. ?? I am in a totally unrelated situation right now (a volunteer situation)...
  16. What can I do with my BSN that Assoc. RN's can't?

    so say i graduate in 2007ish with an ADN (already have a BS in another field, not feasible to go back right now) do you think it is possible for me to get a job as a floor nurse ? (with an
  17. What can I do with my BSN that Assoc. RN's can't?

    Hyp, that's like me. Maybe after I "become" a nurse I will be more interested in getting a BSN but right now I am just not interested. My MIL has an ADN with no bachelors and is a great nurse, loves...
  18. What can I do with my BSN that Assoc. RN's can't?

  21. What is a Per Diem Nurse?

    Is pd common in the "world" of nursing ? It sounds very appealing to
  22. Your thoughts on elder abuse

    she is OK, I guess. These incidents took place in her home (house) and shortly after she had to go into a nursing home. She couldn't afford a "real" nurse so basically just got someone who was looking...
  23. Your thoughts on elder abuse

    I think it's horrible and chicken sh*t to put it bluntly. My gma. was a victim of this by a "caretaker". She stole from her, slapped her, put a pillow over her head, depleted what little $$ she had,...
  24. Drug Reps ...

    A friend of mine recently took a job as a drug rep . I guess I'm curious... and I don't mean to sound catty -- but what do drs. think about them ?? A blessing or pain in the neck ?? I am just...
