    I'm a nurse and I don't like people.

    You know, I am an extroverted introvert; I'm quite animated and outgoing at work, but my time is my time. I don't do a lot of socializing either; groups and crowds suck the life out of me when I'd...

    Primary Care: Screening For Risk Of Prescription Drug Abuse

    Heathermaizey- My husband could write a similar post to yours. He has to tap-dance and jump through hoops to PROVE that he is innocent of abusing his medication. Guilty until cleared, then guilty...
  13. Well, look at it this way: Trial be Fire ! I've been through a lot of those kinds of shifts, not with Hospice, but with my agency. I've been with them some ungodly number of years, like literally half...

    Crazy clinicals instructor doesn't like us using the restroom?

    I can see her in the School Director's office being asked, "Now, WHY did you fail the entire class?" Wear large pins that proclaim "VOIDING IS UNAVOIDABLE" Pour some water on the floor and stand in...

    Crazy clinicals instructor doesn't like us using the restroom?

    I can't help but wonder if this absurd excuse for a CI goes to the bathroom at all. Maybe that's her problem, she's got 'it' backed up to her brain and that's why she is so 'full of it'. Y'all ought...

    Crazy clinicals instructor doesn't like us using the restroom?

    "Testing" you to see how well you listen to her? I'd stop listening when she made us empty out our pockets. I take meds that give me a very dry mouth and there is no way I'd go without a mint to...
