Just a visiting nurse in the community. Glad to hear positive feedback. Fingers crossed. I only applied yesterday.

Thanks for the reply. I did spend 8 years as a PSW in the community before I was an RPN so I am used to the sights ( and smells) of the community. You never know what you are walking into. I feel fairly confident of working on my own since I have over 10 years of experience. I am considering giving community a try. I just quit a retirement home job that was a nightmare. I'm still trying to find something that is the right fit for me.

Did you enjoy it? Were they supportive?

Has anyone here worked for Care Partners? Specifically in Ontario? I've heard mixed reviews.

The horror has nothing to do with the fact that it was an attack toward any certain community. The horror is because it was innocent human beings being slaughtered. It doesn't matter what their sexual orientation was. They were human beings. My disgust lies with the US allowing these firearms to be sold to any schmo off the street.

Since when is it "news" that opioids cause constipation?

I hope that you don't allow your personal beliefs get in the way of educating your patients about vaccines.

Have you ever watched this:

Oh she would find an article on the internet that would back her up. I pointed out to her that there were some childhood illnesses that were coming back due to people not vaccinating hteir kids. Her response was that these diseases come in cycles and they were due to come back anyways. Sigh.

I would love to foreword your post to my oldest sister. However I know I would just be starting a war. She is a staunch advocate of the "vaccines cause autism" camp. Yes she can claim to know people who had perfectly normal children and when they got vaccinated - POOF they became autistic the very next day. I think we could reason with these people until we are blue in the face and they will not listen. Fortunately she is not a nurse.

.... guess I''l go eat worms:roflmao: I am mystified by people that complain that their instructor/charge nurse/coworker isn't warm and fuzzy all the time.Not everyone is going to be wonderful and love you to bits. But you have to learn to work with these people and "play nice" even if they don't. and yes, if you are feeling overwhelmed or dumped on you have to speak up. I think sone people just feel they are being persecuted no matter what.

I just say " I have to get back to work".

We have a Central Scheduling office with three employees that takes care of most of the hospital.They are not nurses. They are trained on the job. They do an awesome job.

Yeah I was thinking stripper.

I have a friend that teaches Grade 8. She had a student named Bunny Delight.And she was a ditzy blonde.How nice. They gave her a stage name.
