    Nurses have an Attitude Problem

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to SunriseDay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Two things: OP, rewrite this thread's opening post using "Student Nurses" instead of "Nurses". Also, I know the perfect job for you: Stated Board of Nursing. Then you can REALLY be sanctimonious and...

    How did your employer recognize Nurse's Day?

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

    A piece of red construction paper hastily taped to the door of our office, upon which someone had scrawled with a marker: "Happy Nurse's Week!" Goes right along with the pay cut, eliminating shift...

    Nurses have an Attitude Problem

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to SunriseDay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Once again, as in a previous thread by OP, I find my reply hindered by TOS, because our replies are not supposed to be about the OP. In this case, how can it not be; that's how she sets herself up and...

    Had to laugh; this is me, too. My own mother knew, when I had bronchitis, to pick up my med from the drugstore, along with g'ale, soup and crackers....she'd come to my apt. and knock, open up the door...

    Will green skin hurt my career?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Practice your interview skills in front of a mirror; practice toning the green down a little. Maybe a class in Self Hypnotism would be in order; if you can convince yourself you are a chameleon, you...

    Bedpan? Why not a Poise pad?

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

    I have seen something meant to act as a female's 'condom' catheter. It was a number of years ago. The one I saw had adhesive on the edges and played hell on pubic hair when removed, and it was kind of...

    Nurses who can't give out narcotics

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Blackcat99's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Restrictions say "no" to PDN or agency work. You have to be in a approved facility and there MUST be an RN on duty or you can not work. But listen, this happened 4 yrs ago. I have let my license...

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Blackcat99's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    28 applications - zero responses. You CAN'T get your license back if you can't find a job in which you can work your 'time' under the required restrictions. If you can't find any place that will...

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

    I didn't see any "attacks", I saw strong reactions​ to the idea of telling a patient just to 'go ahead' and pee, and we'll clean you up afterwards. Many folks are so well 'potty-trained' from a...

    Patients allowed to go outside and smoke???

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

    In the late 70's I worked at a small hospital in a big city in TN. EVERYBODY, it seemed, smoked.....in the hospital, in patient's rooms, at the nurse's station, in the cafeteria, in offices; just...
