    Women's Right to Choose

    LilPeanut replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Taxpayer money is not used for abortions. I will repeat this for those in the back who are slow: outlawing abortions does not decrease rates of abortions, it only increases the risk the woman will die...

    Our laws are not based on judeochristian beliefs. They are based on moral and ethical principles that happen to coincidence with judeochristian

    Women's Right to Choose

    LilPeanut replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Planned parenthhood does a lot of sex ed. Abortions are an incredibly small part of the services they offer. I think a lot of people do not examine their motivations. Like with the border wall...

    Also, until they try just as hard to outlaw IVF, then it's just about women's bodies and shaming and punishing

    Women's Right to Choose

    LilPeanut replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    What you describe isn't choice, it was coercion. That is bad practice, but many doctors and procedures have had bad practices, but we don't outlaw those medical procedures And again, nothing about...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    LilPeanut replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    I became a nurse in 2007 and an NP in 2011. I love it, and I've not had the experiences that many talk about here. If it's something you want to do, then do it.

    Women's Right to Choose

    LilPeanut replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    I work with neonates. We have babies born that survive at 22-23 weeks. They feel pain. We would never perform surgery on them without pain control. That is inhumane and cruel....

    Women's Right to Choose

    LilPeanut replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    I am prochoice as they come, but this is very outdated information. I can assure you that babies born at 22 and 23 weeks can feel pain. And maternal anesthesia does cross the placenta, because it's...

    Women's Right to Choose

    LilPeanut replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Until the patient can survive without a specific person, abortions must remain legal. In no other context is it acceptable to force someone to keep anything else alive with their own body. I am...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    LilPeanut replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, I will admit I'm not as much of a fan of the online schools. I went brick and mortar and while we had some classes that were online, in person I did feel like had better learning, overall. I...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    LilPeanut replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    I am a second career nurse/NP (if it wasn't obvious with my background in linguistics and political science) and while I was kinda taught critical thinking skills in the humanities, it's not nearly...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    LilPeanut replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    Just needed to comment on a couple of things. I cut out a lot of the post I'm quoting, but this is the main part I wanted to focus on: That is not about your age or nursing. That is about writing a...

    Does your EMR make you crazy?

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    LilPeanut replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    I did a graduate entry and while my specialty (Neonatal) had a work requirement between RN and MSN, other specialties didn't. It's not as big of an issue as you might think, and it helps with role...

    Does your EMR make you crazy?

    LilPeanut replied to Oldmahubbard's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Ah, you're outpatient. pffft. outpatient. But I don't know why anyone wouldn't want to use the results review tab. So much

    Moving California. Insight on pay scale etc?

    LilPeanut replied to Nurse4lifeNC's topic in General Nursing

    I moved to SF 4 years ago from cleveland, OH. I grew up and worked as a bedside RN in Columbus, Ohio, then worked as an NNP in Houston, TX as well. 1. So, the taxes aren't really any different than...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    LilPeanut replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    I think this is a problem that plagues all professions: expectations vs realities. If you have a lot of nursing schools in the area you live in, that make it ever so convenient to go back to school,...

    Does your EMR make you crazy?

    LilPeanut replied to Oldmahubbard's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It is almost certainly still there, they just may have moved the button for it, unless they removed lab results as a whole from epic in your build (which would defeat the purpose of having epic) In...

    Ridiculous medical mistakes on TV

    I hate fake call outs.

    LilPeanut replied to KonichiwaRN's topic in General Nursing

    It's hard when you are sick to be able to gauge how long it will last, and you know it's worse the less time you give as a warning. So is it better to call out for two days in a row when you think you...

    How would Medicare for all affect nursing?

    LilPeanut replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately, mental health, vision, hearing and restorative therapy (PT/OT/ST) are often not covered by anyone. I would love to see that

    Nurse Practitioner (Mother) leaves 21 month old in car for 8 hours

    LilPeanut replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Which is the same argument for not having any safety measures for nursing. You have to have a reasonable system which won't replace thinking, but will help if there is a slip. There are some safety...

    Nurse Practitioner (Mother) leaves 21 month old in car for 8 hours

    LilPeanut replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    So, there has been a huge change in how we transport children with corificeats, then in the back, then rear facing, then rear facing for 2 years. There haven't been any systemic interventions made to...

    How would Medicare for all affect nursing?

    LilPeanut replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I would like to point out that the link that you posted about Obama "lying" about the AHCA, there was never any lying about it. It was very transparent that we needed to put all the healthy people...
