  1. Nursing diagnosis "altered energy field"

    danu3 replied to paphgrl's topic in General Nursing

    Actually the whole "energy" concept actually do have deep Eastern spirituality roots, it is more appropriate to place it under "spiritual distress". The potential problem with this now is that you...

  2. Nursing diagnosis "altered energy field"

    danu3 replied to paphgrl's topic in General Nursing

    No, not that I know of. I have trouble with this diagnosis because it does require special training in TT. If I am not train in TT, how in the world am I going to make the diagnosis. As for the...

  3. Nursing diagnosis "altered energy field"

    danu3 replied to paphgrl's topic in General Nursing

    Hmmm... so all nurses are required to learn TT then? I can just see a student nurse will fail the clinical because s/he can't "feel" the energy of the patient. Either that they be honest or they play...

    danu3 replied to ChristineN's topic in Psychiatric

    Like the other posters said... is this a joke? I hope you are not a nurse. That is your choice to believe that schizophrenia is of the devil. I just didn't know the medication we have are so...

  6. What do you Tell Someone Who Doesn't Believe Mental Illnesses Exist?

    danu3 replied to ChristineN's topic in Psychiatric

    I don't think you can convince people like that. You can show them evidence till you are blue in the face, they will always have another interpretation. Serious mental illness is a scary thing. It...

  8. why can't i just take A&P? why do they have to be separate?

    danu3 replied to pedsnur2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That probably is a semester school? Quater system schools sometimes have a tendency to do A&P together. In either case, it takes one year. If you can take Anatomy and Physiology at the same...

  11. What can I do legally?

    danu3 replied to NoCrumping's topic in Psychiatric

    As others already indicated, you can contact the pdoc/therapist whomever but they can't say anything to you. You may want to document the symptoms and fax (or mail it) it to the appropriate care...

  17. Become a nurse in just 12 months!!!

    danu3 replied to askater11's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Good point. It is a misnomer. People think these programs take some kind of short cuts. At least the ones I am familier, they do not. The article the OP posted for our comments is misleading. It...

  19. attitudes of male and female patients towards male nursing students

    danu3 replied to Jhanez_k2p's topic in Men in Nursing

    This is off subject but I always find that the idea that you are probably gay if you are a male nurse just does not make any logical sense. Think about it, if you are gay male, that means you are...

    danu3 replied to NathanDH's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
