    rngreenhorn replied to tgibson3770's topic in General Nursing

    I guess Americans like milk products because somewhere along the way we discovered it tastes good, and we can get to it. My cat certainly doesn't say, "no thanks" when offered warm whole milk. But,...

  4. Manual BM Removal

    rngreenhorn replied to banditrn's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Perpetuating unhealthy behavior is much more abusive than saying "NO" and giving dulcolax tabs would be the next thing to do (if the lady was indeed constipated.) Because the evening nurse had already...

  5. Never understood nursing

    rngreenhorn replied to PACPhD's topic in General Nursing

    rngreenhorn replied to chioma829's topic in General Nursing

    rngreenhorn replied to chioma829's topic in General Nursing

    rngreenhorn replied to chioma829's topic in General Nursing

    I see we are of like mind. I must agree with your literary review. The "sheesh'es" are a personal favorite of mine. They really portray a feeling of dumb-founded exasperation. If I were Siskel and...

    rngreenhorn replied to chioma829's topic in General Nursing

    rngreenhorn replied to hs2005's topic in General Nursing

    You don't need to be sensative and caring and compassionate and all the warm and fuzzy bs... what you need is competence. And it helps if you like the job... just like any other profession. Go for...

  23. Nursing diagnosis "altered energy field"

    rngreenhorn replied to paphgrl's topic in General Nursing

    From a purely practical approach: outside of this forum, nursing school, textbooks, and websites, I never hear about this diagnosis. I've never had a physician write an order for TT, never had one...
