    Wasn't there some 'rumor' that gave green and red M&M's a sexual connotation? Like one of them meant you were oversexed or something? I do remember a co-worker at the agency office had a pretty...

    Be honest, what pt behaviors do you find annoying?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    I had a post-op hip patient once who was sooooo anticipatory over anything and everything. She was convinced, before you even laid a (gentle) hand on her, even after a healthy dose of pain med, that...

    Denying Death As A Society

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Kyrshamarks's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe there needs to be a simple book that discusses death, as in the child's book, "Everyone Poops". ......ie ,"The Only Way Out Is Through: Everyone dies." I've posted this elsewhere, but I had a...

    Sexy male scrubs

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Betenhauser's topic in Men in Nursing

    I'm the opposite of GhostRN. I am too old to be panting after sexy male nurses and I don't care what they wear. When I was younger and single, sure, I secretly lusted, but it never did any 'good'. I'm...

    How Important is it that your patients and their families like you?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Soliloquy's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Since I do PD cases which tend to be rather long-term,and 12 hour shifts, it's pretty important the patient and family feel comfortable with and like me being on duty. I don't turn myself inside-out...

    Who Let the Dogs Out in Nursing?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Donna Maheady's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Every service dog and handler I've ever seen at any facility ALWAYS asks permission before entering a room or allowing the dog to approach someone. And certainly common sense would dictate that dogs...

    Who Let the Dogs Out in Nursing?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Donna Maheady's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Before Therapy Dogs were a widely accepted thing I took my dog on my weekend rounds of Home Health visits. He even had a photo ID from my company with the title"HHD" (home health dog). Most patients...

    Accused of narcotic/ alcohol abuse... No clue what this is about!

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Purplegiraffe's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, that is one thing about the BoN...they take their own sweet time and let you marinate in fear endlessly. They like their nurses to be tender, not crispy. And I do remember, once I asked for the...

    Poll: Nurse and law enforcement couples

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Ah, well, I know that some cops certainly do go bed-hopping. Even some of the ones whom you would never expect of it. It is also why I said I'd never marry a doctor. At my first job, at an...

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Purplegiraffe's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know that it is a scam....I do know that when you have a complaint lodged against you, you are the one at a distinct disadvantage because they will NOT discuss specifics.....which is pretty...

    Ah, I see! Thanks! I thought at first the powder would be sprinkled on food, kind of like grated cheese, or sugar:rolleyes:. It makes more sense though, I have to admit, as a "personally manufactured...

    Many animals consume the afterbirth of their delivery. Maybe it has nutrition in it that helps Mom and Baby(ies). Maybe it's just a safety issue, like the stuff needs to be disappeared lest a predator...

    Poll: Nurse and law enforcement couples

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    When you think about it, nurses, police and fire-fighters see people and families in the worst situations, raw and unfiltered. Makes for a lot of 'war stories' to be traded. Who better to understand...
