  1. Does your facility still give enemas ?

    I guess the reason why I have questions and concerns is because I have had nurses and a OBGYN to make rude comments when I did poop while pushing. I can only imagine how they would have reacted had I...
  2. Does your facility still give enemas ?

    OMG That is what I was thinking. I would think in that respect enemas would be a horrible idea. I did know I nursing student who told me about a lady that did not get chance to expell the enema...
  3. Does your facility still give enemas ?

    If everything goes well I plan to deliver at a hospital I have not delivered before in December. The hospital policy is to do them on admission. I was surprised. I don't know if this is something I...
  4. What do you do when it is the disabled student who is bullying students and teachers? I find plenty of information about disabled students being bullied, but what happens when it is the other way...
  5. 504 plans and the DISABLED student who is the bully

    I don't think anyone made sweeping generalizations. We just pointed out that there are disabled children that are the bully, and sometimes it is not addressed because of their disability. No one...
  6. 504 plans and the DISABLED student who is the bully

    Well I am sorry. There are some (probably a few, but some) parents who DO use the system to get around consequences for themselves and their children. My main concern is when children are allowed to...
  7. 504 plans and the DISABLED student who is the bully

    If a child is out of control, hitting other students, loudly cursing students, teachers and administrators, and tearing up school property, then what do you suggest should be done? Really? If you...
  8. 504 plans and the DISABLED student who is the bully

    I can totally see this happen to some students I know. It is like we are talking about the same child. The bad part about it is that many of these children have the potential to do so much better. I...
  9. 504 plans and the DISABLED student who is the bully

    Thank you. The info I have received from the three of you is more than I have found by asking questions or searching the Internet. I was honestly told, and I quote "Well, if the child has a 504...
  10. Need Advice - Seizure Issue!!

    I absolutely AGREE with you, OP!! I don't know why they would do that! There should be a plan with administering this medication, even to the point of how the medication can be administered with as...
  11. There was an upper elementary student in my district who had a sizeable wetting accident in class recently. There are some at the school who think the student did it on purpose in order to be sent...
  12. At what lengths would a child go to to be sent home??

    I do know he asked to go more than once. There was a slight demerit he would have had to take for going to the bathroom at that time, and he refused to take
  13. Student Body Odor

    I don't think the OP was confused about how to solve their OWN body odor issues. Maybe I am just tired and can't read
  14. Behavior issues

    I'd tell the school counselor so she could get our behavior specialist involved. That's just
  15. With all the allergies children have nowadays...?

    I know of a teacher who had a hamster in her room that was known to BITE! She taught special education students who were often easily distracted, and students with behavior problems. The hamster...
  16. Not a real nurse huh?

    I always thought that school nurses were "real nurses" but it really hit home when I started working at a public elementary school. We had an emergency happen on the playground that included two...
  17. Scents in the Classroom and Respiratory Issues?

    Does this also include the products the janitors use to clean the school? I am fine with being sensitive to other people's scent allergeries, but every so often a student makes a body scent of their...
  18. Asthma issues and sending kids home....

    Why isn't the PARENT asking about these resources, instead of getting an attitude when the school is informing that their child has a medical emergency. I don't understand. My husband and I have...
  19. Shoes for school clothes closets?

    I am rather new to working in a school setting. I know that children, especially the younger grades, need a change of clothes at school for many different reasons. Do you find that they need shoes...
  20. The most ridiculous birth plans you've had the pleasure of reading

    I couldn't agree more. I did find it disturbing during the labor of my first son that the nurse kept insisting that I get an epidural "because I'd be sorry I didn't, and might want one and it would be...
  21. The most ridiculous birth plans you've had the pleasure of reading

    Some people need to figure out their expectations and discuss them with their doctor first, let's say, in their first trimester. It is a good idea to find out what the hospital will/will not allow....
  22. hot cheetos & GI probs

    None of my own children have ever gotten sick from eating hot cheetos (not saying that there aren't children who do). That's about the only chips my oldest son will eat. As far as I know, they are...
  23. Bad day today..

    At my school, we have had lots of problems with parents. We have tightened security of what person can go where at what time (hope that made sense). This can help contain irrational
  24. The Disrespect Of Nurses

    I don't think people realize that dangerous situations for nurses can mean a dangerous situation for anyone at the hospital, including patients and visitors. What if someone is physically abusing a...
  25. How do you feel about male nurses in OB/GYN/NICU?

    Well, many OBGYNs are males, why can't there be male nurses in this field? Doesn't make sense for there not to be male OBGYN
