    RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    MunoRN replied to TraumaRN52's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Normally rulings from a session of cases all come out bunched together at the end, although they've indicated that this will be

    RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    MunoRN replied to TraumaRN52's topic in Disaster Preparation

    They're expected to issue a ruling by mid-January, the OSHA mandate is up in the air but the CMS mandate which is the one that applies to hospital workers is expected to be

    RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    MunoRN replied to TraumaRN52's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The state mandates, or lack thereof, will be moot likely around January when the CMS mandate comes back. The religious exemption wouldn't apply to direct care jobs under the CMS rule. And...

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    The Medical Examiner concluded that the events earlier in the day played a role in his death, so claims that he died as a result of the riot are not false. You are correct that it was initially...

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

    MunoRN replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I'm not sure we have a really good idea at this point what the morbidity and mortality is of Omicron given the long lag between new cases and deaths with Covid. I certainly hope it's less harmful...

    Covid and Hospitals: How are things now?

    MunoRN replied to CrunchRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    We've had a number of patients come off vents and eventually walk out of the hospital, but that was early on when "early intubation" was the rule. It turns out that was probably doing more harm than...

    Poor MD Problem Solving With GI Problems

    MunoRN replied to londonflo's topic in General Nursing

    I get that interpretation but that's not what I'm trying to say. The premise of medicine is to find what can be fixed (medically), and if it can't or shouldn't be fixed then oh well. I'm not...

    Covid and Hospitals: How are things now?

    MunoRN replied to CrunchRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    We're over 300 licensed beds, inpatient occupancy has been at 320 plus. Our ICU is about 50 beds, which for a long time was 10-20 beds for Covid, it's currently 30 Covid beds, mostly long term...

    President Biden thread

    MunoRN replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Biden's 'thing' has always been that he's far from being an eloquent speaker, he has no filter when speaking. Being gaffe-prone isn't new, he's been known for that for decades. Being "bad at...

    Do you work with PA lines often? Are they really a thing of the past?

    MunoRN replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in Critical Care

    Flotrac doesn't directly measure any parameters except for arterial BP, it uses an algorithm to approximate CO/CI, SVR, etc. I think it's fair to say, and not particularly surprising, that Edwards...

    Which Religions Exempt Covid Vaccinations?

    MunoRN replied to Jordee's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The source lists religions /sects / denominations where some degree of theological opposition to vaccination exists, but none prohibit vaccination as a component of their doctrine. In each one...

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I don't really agree with the notion that matter-of-factly pointing out that someone's views or conclusions are incorrect is "insulting", it can be done in an insulting manner but pointing out that...

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I agree that you've correctly identified "why some people would believe the election was stolen" and "why people don't buy this insurrection stuff", specifically that the facts which contradict your...

    Are there any travel nurse jobs for Unvaccinated Nurses?

    MunoRN replied to Heart Attack Zack's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I know of a nurse who found a job at a facility that doesn't require vaccination, although supposedly she's making $15 an hour with no housing stipend. (It's a job she had to travel to but not...

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You right, that doesn't read well. What I meant to say was that the three generals who deemed it necessary to speak publicly about their concerns of a potential Trumpian Coup aren't

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I would agree at least in that it wasn't "super covert". Trump was openly saying that Congress and in particular Pence should certify the election for him instead of Biden, there wasn't anything...

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Leaving aside that exactly what role the riot played in his death seems to be what defines whether these were bad people or not (regardless of how he died officers were still punched, kicked, stomped,...

    January 6 Select Committee

    MunoRN replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I'd say I don't know where you're getting that BLM rioters and January 6th rioters were given different treatment in court, except I do, it's been a common myth in far-right media, but not actually...

    Poor MD Problem Solving With GI Problems

    MunoRN replied to londonflo's topic in General Nursing

    Your brain is actually in your head. I realize that term connotes a disinterest in the problem and frequently when people say "it's in your head" they are indeed not interested in your problem. But...

    Poor MD Problem Solving With GI Problems

    MunoRN replied to londonflo's topic in General Nursing

    I would agree the terminology is problematic, but despite that your previous episode worked out as well as it could have given that even just a couple of decades ago they were quicker to do surgery...

    Vaccination Mandating

    MunoRN replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I honestly can't tell if you're being serious. Biden should have known that the only thing keeping Trump from doing a vaccine PSA was a request to do so written in thread stitched into

    Vaccination Mandating

    MunoRN replied to Ariemay82's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I don't really see how no vaccine mandates would have resulted in more people being vaccinated. It would seem to be a very small portion of people who declined to get vaccinated, there were going to...

    Nurses Deleting Orders to Reduce Charting

    There's a difference between properly managing the nursing plan of care and just cancelling things you don't like, examples might
