  1. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think one day I shall write a book about my experience because clearly it is impossible to make it clear without being explicit about what happened. But let me put your mind at rest. What happened...

  2. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is the typical solution and the way it is administrated in hospitals. Either the perpetrator or the victim is moved to another unit, which is at least one way for the hospital to retain their...

  3. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I was older than those bullying me personally. This isn't about age but seniority. As new people spend time in the hospital, over time, they became the senior nurses. So there is a constant cycle...

  4. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Who are you to judge what is an issue or not? In this type of situation, the "issues" do seem ridiculous when taken one at the time. It is only when you see the whole picture that it begins to be...

  5. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I really appreciate your reply and am going to use it as an example of how not to respond to someone who is dealing with this. I know you mean well but people who are nice don't want to "grow a...

  7. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yes, that was the start of this but it was so much more than what I said that day. You know, when that first happened, I sincerely thought that there was this major high standard that everyone was...

  8. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Some other examples are: Public humiliation Writing someone up by falsifying information Non verbal innuendos like rolling the eyes Ignoring questions or failure to respond Refusal to help Giving out...

  9. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You did deal with it but not as quickly as you may have liked. Note that is sabatoging for anyone who wants to know. The fact that this man was willing to go after this employee through a patient is...

  10. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    CONCLUSION. This concept analysis demonstrates that nurse-to-nurse LV is nurse-to-nurse aggression with overtly or covertly directing dissatisfaction toward another. Origins include role issues,...

  11. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I noticed that the last time I posted about this issue, I got a barrage of nasty letters telling me to basically suck it up because it is just part of the setting or quit and go somewhere else....

  12. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This has nothing to do with age. I am older. It has to do with being new, isolated and vulnerable. Do you guys admit that EBP materials are

  13. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thanks everyone who responded. I am about to get my BSN in a couple of weeks. Yeah. I have been learning a great deal about this topic. There have actually been about 78 evidence based research...

  14. Volunteering advice for Childrens Hospital

    Sensibility replied to alexys13's topic in Pediatric

    I hope you got the job. I love pediatrics. There is a great need for people who have compassion for children who are hurting and in

    Sensibility replied to RaleighNurse's topic in Pediatric

    We mix ours with lidocaine to cut the pain of the

  16. Lateral Violence

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am so tired. I don't feel like I have the energy to write out two years of drama. Read any commentary on lateral violence and that is what I've been through. Do you know that the only advice I...

  17. Homecare Nurses

    Sensibility replied to nursemartin00's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I used to bring a set of earbuds and an iPhone with Netflix, a downloaded movie, or HuluPlus. I was hoping to graduate to an iPad. But iPads have a huge fee for watching movies unless you download...

  18. Can someone "dumb down" what Obamacare really means?

    Sensibility replied to EarthwormRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    It is all the ridiculous statistics that go along with this and the glowing testimonials that we all know are lies. If any people group on the planet has been taught to think critically, it is nurses....

  19. Can someone "dumb down" what Obamacare really means?

    Sensibility replied to EarthwormRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    My dad sent this to me today. I thought it said it so well that I would pass it on to my nursing friends. I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes...

  20. Can someone "dumb down" what Obamacare really means?

    Sensibility replied to EarthwormRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Regulating people like this does not create goodness. Laws do not make people good and honorable. People who want to be yucky will take your boundary and find a way around it. And what in the world...

  21. Can someone "dumb down" what Obamacare really means?

    Sensibility replied to EarthwormRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You don't necessarily need to be a nurse to be a member of this board. Nobody checks to make sure. Please be careful of people that might very well be plants who are obviously giving fallacious...

  22. I hate my job and I can't get out.

    Sensibility replied to ewrn's topic in General Nursing

    Who in America is ever denied health care because of money? If you are truly sick and need care and can't afford it, the government here does pick up the tab. It happens all the time. In our...

  23. How do you deal with passive aggression in nursing?

    Sensibility posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have a charge nurse that is not out and out mean to me. Instead, her meanness is subtle. In my face, she smiles. But then she is constantly doing things that later I realize were done to be mean...

  24. How do you deal with passive aggression in nursing?

    Sensibility replied to Sensibility's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I found a solution that I think is working. With this one group that is nice in my face and mean in other ways (which proves they really aren't my friends) I am being nice in terms of any pertinent...
