    Giga posted a topic in General Nursing

    I've been working on the surgical floor for 9 months now and I'm starting to feel like I'm getting the hang of things on my unit. I've learned a lot of tips and tricks and my time management has...

    Giga replied to Giga's topic in General Nursing

    I've read all the replies from people telling me that I need to reexamine my own priorities and that "there's no wonder they won't help me". Them helping me isn't really the issue, it's them making...

    I know my initial statement were age discrimination, but a lot of people are being just as discrimnatory by holding older nurses to a different set of standards. "Oh she's older, she doesn't have to...

    I can tell you this much for sure and for true, it was me. I'm getting tired of the whiners and "task stretchers". I guess it wouldn't be so bad if they didn't constantly talk about how busy they...

    Well for one thing they could simply work faster, freeing up their time so they won't need me to "help" them every other round. So I'm suppose to do my own charting, meds, dressing changes, and task...

    Giga replied to Giga's topic in General Nursing

    I don't see how I'm suppose to "help" somebody chart faster. It's something they do every time they come into work. You'd think they'd have gotten the hang of it by now. I could probably do it with...

    They're random in the sense that there's no specific rhyme or reason as to why one chart is chosen over the other, but we're actively encouraged to pull charts that we think something might be wrong...

    Giga replied to Giga's topic in General Nursing

    To the ones saying they're making extra notes or doing a more detailed version, all I can say is that is not the case in my situation. I know because I've been curious about this for a while so when...

    Giga posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello, Long time stalker, first time writer here. Ok to cut to the chase I've tested positive for a PPD twice and now I have a choice between taking 9 months of INH or doing nothing. The pros of...
