    Radonda Vaught Trial

    MunoRN replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    I really don't think this was the fault of Just Culture. And I totally get the desire to grab the torches and pitchforks when it comes to what happened here, but at the same time from a...

    HIPAA violation?

    MunoRN replied to Nursey444's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Photos with faces are identifiable, although in OP's description the patient "is not identified". Presuming that means there is nothing in the photo that reveals the patient's

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

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

    That's actually a totally appropriate response. It was inappropriate for Biden to state his criteria was based on the race and gender of the candidate. This is yet another example of Biden being,...

    Female as defined how? By Chromosomes maybe? What about people with various conditions that result in consistent 'male' sex characteristics but an XX pair of chromosomes, and vice versa?...

    If the suggestion is that it's easy to legally define what a "woman" is, then feel free to define it and prove how straightforward it supposedly

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

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

    I also found those articles pretty concerning, I mean how are schools consenting to gender transitioning medical procedures, hormone therapies, etc, without the parents knowledge, since it seemed like...

    HIPAA violation?

    MunoRN replied to Nursey444's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    While it very likely may a violation of the organization's privacy policies, HIPAA is not a catch-all term for the ethical and policy requirements related to privacy that employers and other entities...

    Amiodarone vs. Lidocaine

    MunoRN replied to Tsicurn2020's topic in Critical Care

    Long story short, the evidence suggests both are relatively ineffective in terms of end-outcomes. What the evidence does support is treating the underlying cause of the ventricular arrhythmias....

    It was no doubt an interesting poll, clearly we need to remake Red Dawn, or at least make watching the re-run mandatory. There would seem to be something I'm not getting about how people answer...

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

    I'm not sure the article made it clear the proposal was officially presented to Biden, but either way I can certainly see why it would be a suggestion the President would "pass" on. If all things...

    ICU Nurses Dealing with COVID Patients

    MunoRN replied to MareBear112's topic in Disaster Preparation

    We've had people who died of Covid who were fully vaccinated, although none where it was surprising that vaccine didn't offer them protection. The vaccines rely on a competent immune system to...

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

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

    The original article didn't really back up the idea that this was officially presented to White House, although Fox's reporting of the Politico story (using the term "reporting" loosely considered...

    Keystone XL hadn't really ever received full approval which would include clearing the courts. The Trump administration granted a permit, but there were immediate court challenges at the time which...

    Not a huge Pasaki fan, but I give her credit for this exchange with Doocy. Jen Psaki and Peter Doocy Battle Over Gas Prices (mediaite.com) I do have to give credit to TC Energy for turning a...

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

    And that's fair, not specifying which part of the complaint their referring to lacks clarity. Although I would say it's more of a trivial lack of clarity than a substantive lack of clarity, since...

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

    I think this is maybe more due to what people take "complaint" to mean since the quote does appear in the RNCs description of their complaint, specifically the media release of the complaint, but not...

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

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

    Exactly. A large range of our economy is dependent on oil, and since the nature of oil extraction, transport, and refining will always be volatile to at least some degree, that broad dependence makes...

    President Biden thread

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

    Best I can tell, the criticism from the right is that Biden needs to do more to increase the supply side of oil (even though the availability of pre-refinery oil doesn't really affect the price of gas...

    Except that's not what they said, what they said was that there's a lack of interest in developing oil extraction which they suggested was due to some sort of oddly nonspecific regulatory...

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

    MunoRN replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in Critical Care

    The 'cutting edge' of critical care lately has been that "less is more". The most common example is that it's we too often have too much information, and end up making clinical decisions that...

    Multistate Licensure Question

    MunoRN replied to nurse1903's topic in General Nursing

    Best as I can tell, if you no longer "maintain a domicile" in the state of Texas then you are no longer a legal resident of Texas. Your driver's license isn't what determines your state of...

    Peripheral Vasopressor Administration - Considering Catheter Gauge

    I'm not sure how there's much question at this point as to what the views of the 'convoy' are. Are you saying that as far as you can tell they are evenly distributed accross the political
