  3. wow! the laziness!

    samirish replied to OhioCCRN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I remember when I was an aide at a nursing home. I couldn't understand why I felt so much hostility from the other aids there. Then, after about a week of of working there I had another aide come up...

  4. Obese children...my rant

    samirish replied to Gently.me's topic in Pediatric

    I've always wondered..how in the world does someone let themselves get like that?? I mean c'mon! They must know they are killing themselves. I've got to say, it does make me believe food can be a...

  5. Obese children...my rant

    samirish replied to Gently.me's topic in Pediatric

    You would think, as a parent, if you had a child that was obese you would be thankful and excited that the kid even asked for a salad in the first place. For her to just flat out refuse him like...

  7. Male nurse in L&D

    samirish replied to tony2353's topic in Ob/Gyn

  8. Male nurse in L&D

    samirish replied to tony2353's topic in Ob/Gyn

  11. Is this right for me?

    samirish replied to jdan88's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe try working as a cna for a little while so you can see what the nurses do and get a feel for the culture. If its not for you, but you still want to do something healthcare related, you can...

  13. Just looking for opinions

    samirish replied to Sanuk's topic in General Nursing

    How ridiculous. I would be upset too, especially if they don't even fit right! Ugh. Some CEO probably thought it would be a good way for the hospital to give the "image" of having more skilled...

    samirish replied to masstudent's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I would not want the exam done by a male doctor and male nurse. It would feel way too intimidating for me...not to mention

  20. Work policy

    samirish replied to lojadi's topic in General Nursing

    I used to work in customer service (a call center...that hardly ever got any calls). Sounds just like the rules there. We also had to actually raise our hand when we needed to use the bathroom and...

  21. Travel Nursing

    samirish replied to fitzpatrickkatie6's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I know I've seen Saudi Arabia and Dubai recruiting for nurses pretty aggressively. Those seem to be spots that have legit nursing shortages now. I ran into a website that was like a broker of some...

    samirish replied to ewrn's topic in First Year After Licensure
