    SHGR replied to Jacquipals's topic in School

    Thanks for your responses, guys. It must be a whole different world in school nursing for real. In hospitals, we just walk in and do whatever, it seems, so I am mostly used to that whole paradigm....

    SHGR replied to Jacquipals's topic in School

    You school nurses post a lot and I love your threads! I'm confused about this one. I've worked special rec camp where I straight cathed campers, and family medicine where we cathed and U-bagged...

    Dr. told patient, "Nurses are STUPID".

    SHGR replied to Daetwin2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's happened here before. Provocative posts from several people on this thread (and the thread itself, especially the clickbait title) lead me to believe this is the case

    Dr. told patient, "Nurses are STUPID".

    Pro tip: repeating yourself doesn't make something

    Dr. told patient, "Nurses are STUPID".

    SHGR replied to Daetwin2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You posted awhile back about having failed the NCLEX-PN exam, so I would be careful about calling anyone

    LVN keeps personal notes about patients

    SHGR replied to VegGal's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I was advised to NOT keep shift sheets or notes because in the event of a lawsuit, if it was discovered that a nurse had kept these then they would all be discoverable/subpoenaed. That was before...

    Teaching distance learning

    SHGR replied to ReinventingMyselfAgain's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    The low pay for online educators makes me wonder why the courses cost so dang much. In fact, sometimes they cost MORE than in-person courses because of "online fees." It seems that the formatting...

    Bullying in nursing field does exist

    SHGR replied to Dianna11's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    From perspective of instructor (who is also a student)-- most of the time if a student has a question, more students (if not most or all of the group) have a similar question and it is good to address...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    STARL if you have truly had a change of heart that would be a wonderful thing. I am glad you have started counseling. Best wishes to

    How do you use QSEN

    SHGR replied to chloeluvsutoo's topic in General Nursing

    I would tell the student to use the EBP competency of QSEN in looking up evidence-based resources...about using QSEN. Maybe find some qualitative studies about how nurses have used the QSEN...

    Why Can Pre-Med Students Know Their Choice But Nursing Students "Can't"?

    SHGR replied to Shookclays's topic in General Nursing

    OP- I appreciate your determination, but there is no comparison to be made here. I worked in GME (Graduate Medical Education) in a medical residency for eleven years before leaving for nursing...

    did any of you share your first job offer on Facebook?

    SHGR replied to mixtapern's topic in General Nursing

    As a few other posters have stated, social media didn't exist then, but I'm sure I would have shared. It only took me five long months to get an offer and I was beyond happy. That said, I shared my...

    jg90027, thank you for this post. It is very informative. Please consider turning this into a standalone article so more people will see it! I think many will appreciate knowing about how the...

    YOUR Guide to Rocking Nursing School Clinical Rotations!

    SHGR replied to MurseJJ's topic in General Students

    Hi MurseJJ, thanks for posting this. Students often listen more to someone who is a new grad or farther along in a nursing program than us nursing instructors, and everything you say is spot-on. The...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    SHGR replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    I see absolutely zero evidence of bullying here. Nope. I would say the same thing to the OP in person as I did anonymously here and I hope the rest of us who responded would do the same. I would...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    SHGR replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    I think you need to ask yourself whether the reason you feel bad now is because you got caught and fear that these things will hinder your career moving forward, or do you actually feel some guilt for...

    Clinical Judgement Call...Not sure if I did the right thing

    Crossed the line with a flirty family member. How to deal with ethical issues?

    SHGR replied to Scuba_NurseBSN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It is easier to just say "I'm married." I worked with a nurse who made up a long-term boyfriend for just such situations. No details, just to mention him (implying he would not be happy to have...

    PhD question

    SHGR replied to CaneRN's topic in General Nursing

    One interesting thing about nursing education is that it is not at all homogenous. Some institutions are more "student focused" in which PhD faculty are focused on teaching undergrads or MSN...

    Failed out of nursing school. Do I have a fair chance of getting into another?

    SHGR replied to Keisha2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As a nursing instructor at a for-profit school, I just wanted to add my perspective. Probably 80% of my students have failed out of one or more nursing schools and that is absolutely not taken into...

    Delivering fetal demises

    SHGR replied to sharonx's topic in Ob/Gyn

    This thread seems to have gone off-topic so I will post here a link to an article that delineates the heirarchy of evidence Choosing the Best Evidence to Guide Clinical Practice: Application of AACN...

    Delivering fetal demises

    SHGR replied to sharonx's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That is such an odd rationale. It would at least make logical sense if stronger meds were given to moms who had had fetal demise (like category X even) that you could not give to a mom with a live...

    So is there really a nursing shortage?

    SHGR replied to VegGal's topic in General Nursing

    MSN does not equal NP. There are plenty of MSNs who are not, nor do not wish to be, NPs. Sorry for the side comment, but I just felt it was important to

    Failed preceptorship

    SHGR replied to Spurse32's topic in General Nursing

    OP, that really does sound like a not-very-good unit for a preceptorship like that, after reading your most recent comment. I didn't mean to be overly harsh, but I think you were correct in your...
