   My district starts for students Aug. 10. This is almost a week later than

2. It's not my job to pray with you.

   caregiver1977 replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

   I just want to point out that there is a difference between praying aloud in behalf of a patient and standing silently while someone else prays. I don't think a nurse should be forced to do either,...

3. Birthday Treats

   caregiver1977 replied to SnowyJ's topic in School

   My school allows treats, but they can only be store bought. There is a seafood ban at my school, but it was so poorly enforced that most people didn't even know about it. But you asked about birthday...

4. Do you keep clothes in your office?

   caregiver1977 replied to Farawyn's topic in School

   This is just a question, where do these students go? I am not disagreeing with your policy, btw, just asking a question. I would say that I hope it is somewhere where the student isn't "on

5. The most ridiculous birth plans you've had the pleasure of reading

   caregiver1977 replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Ok, stop the press... You mean they actually asked for 7 orgasms!!! I'm sorry, but didn't that patient just sexually harrass the nurse, the nursing staff, or whomever the request was aimed at? What...

6. Poopy Pants in PreK

   caregiver1977 replied to amnesiac1c's topic in School

   In my school district, the problem is more of WHAT will the child change into rather than WHO will change the child. In my school district I have witnessed the teacher assistant helping to clean up a...

7. student with terminally-ill parent

   caregiver1977 replied to Sudsy's topic in School

   I am just glad you care enough to help. My dad became terminal when I was about 2nd grade and died the summer before I entered 7th grade. Through all that time the school(s) couldn't have cared...

   caregiver1977 replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I am glad you have that attitude. Some nurses do not. I think your hospital is more progessive than the local one in my

9. Food insecurity in your schools?

   caregiver1977 replied to GemTwist's topic in School

   Sometimes teachers or teacher assistants just bought food for a hungry kid at the school where I worked. We didn't want them to starve all day while decisionmakers haggled over what to do. This...

    caregiver1977 replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The only minor problem I have with continuous EFM is that it doesn't give you chance to go to the bathroom exactly when you need to. Sometimes when you are laboring, things happen too fast for a...

    caregiver1977 replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Oh I am certainly not saying that all Caucasian patients are being treated great, but minorities tend to be treated worse (am I not saying all the time). Some of the shabby treatment I pointed out was...

12. B/P and Seizures

    caregiver1977 replied to knufflebunny's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You are right, and the people who have said that I was probably closer than what I thought to a seizure. I really should not have waited until Monday to go to the doctor; I should have gone to the...

    Okay, I have to bite...what is so ignorant about what I said? Just because you have never seen it

    I am glad you have never seen this and I hope you never do. It still

    caregiver1977 replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    And I don't want to be seen as someone who brings race into everything, but at some hospitals, especially in the South, black patients who want to ask intelligent questions about their healthcare and...
