  1. Thinking of taking a phlebotomy class while waiting...

    MZachry replied to SarasotaRN2b's topic in General Nursing

    As a Medical Assistant, we did phlebotomies as a part of the class. Some places I worked I had to do blood drawals, and some I didn't. Call me weird, but phlebotomy was my favorite part of MA school....

  6. Stressed out and Getting Out

    MZachry replied to CseMgr1's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    I can relate to how everyone feels to have a pain in the orifice to work with! I stopped working as a M.A. to be a stay at home mom. After several years, I decided to go get a job at the high school...

  8. DCCCD Nursing Program

    MZachry replied to MZachry's topic in Texas Nursing

    I will definately look into other schools as well, but the scholarship I received was based on DCCCD's indistrict tuition. So, anywhere else I go would be an out of pocket expense for the difference....

    Good Luck, TXMOM! I know one person that has all A's. She was accepted with first try. So, I'm not sure how hard it will be with all A's. I just hope our minds haven't given out.....already used the...

    MZachry replied to RNPATL's topic in Medical-Surgical

    I plan on going into Med-Surg. I have read that this is like pre-op and post-op care, as well as other issues. Is this right? I was born with a cleft-lip & palate, and have had 18 surgeries....

  14. color coding staff

    MZachry replied to hock1's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't mind wearing white (I will earn that right upon graduation!), or another standard color which all RN's in the hospital have to wear. I think LPN's should wear a distinguished color, and...

  15. BSN requirement for all RNs

    MZachry replied to cindylousmith's topic in General Nursing

    I am going to school for an ADN. So, I am not answering this way because of my own situation. I don't feel that RN's should have a BSN. Many extra classes are not in the nursing field anyway. So,...

  16. Addressing doctors by their first names

    MZachry replied to trauma_junkie1's topic in General Nursing

    I am just used to calling all doctors by, "Dr. ________". However, if a Dr. asked for me to call him/her by his first name, then I'd feel more comfortable with it. In front of patients I would...

  17. What is PC way to discuss spiritual status with dying pts?

    MZachry replied to KaroSnowQueen's topic in General Nursing

    Everytime I have been admitted into a hospital, there has been a question about religious preference. Is this not noted on the pt's charts, or in the database? I've never worked in a hospital, as I...
