    pyxis dilemma

    UM Review RN replied to cptluciejensen's topic in General Nursing

    Are you saying that you and other nurses noticed this trend and didn't report it? Aren't you obligated to report things like that? I would've reported it to my manager, if nothing else to cover my...

    The "Weigh" Out---A Food Management Support Thread

    UM Review RN replied to VivaLasViejas's topic in Health, Stress Management

    UM Review RN replied to vashtee's topic in General Nursing

    I would have to talk to the unit manager about the charge nurse's behavior. It is not a nursing responsibility to make sure one doc calls another doc (unless the patient is having some sort of...

    Too much estrogen! Women! Ahh!

    UM Review RN replied to ZanatuBelmont's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I respectfully disagree. I was taught that jokes like that are not really jokes, and friends who pull jokes like that are not really friends. If it was me, I'd be really hurt. A real friend would...

    UM Review RN replied to chocolategirl's topic in General Nursing

    I think you should go for the nursing degree because as others have said, an MA is pretty much it--you cannot advance into nursing school with that. I have an associate's degree. It took about 3 years...
