    "I now do casemanagement to avoid giving meds and this story has now followed me to my new job." Followed you as in you brought it along with you or someone at the new job brought it
  2. I have no idea how you meant it, but this post could be taken by some as coming across arrogant and abrupt or maybe rude. If you meant it that way, fine, but if not

  5. Does anyone else plan to stay in bedside?

  6. Old new RN with Social Anxiety

    I think a lot of nursing is acting, putting on a
  7. So you expect nurses to start collecting social security early (at only 75% of the PIA) instead of waiting until their FRA when they can collect 100% of the PIA? Just so they can hire
  8. Yeah, lay them off! Then they'll be in the same boat you are. There is a reason they can't retire, they need money. Early retirement? What is that? Most nurses have no retirement, only what they...
  9. Please help me with my temper

    [quote name=AlphaPig I watch them and while they get frustrated too they never seem to lose their cool like me. [/quote] They are probably
  10. who has left nursing ?

    Have never had (or known anyone who has had) a problem with Waffle House. Might make better tips somewhere else
  11. who has left nursing ?

    What about Waffle House? Didn't you want to work
  12. No call/ No show

    That is not a no call, no show regardless of what they want to call it. Most places if you call in late they won't pay sick leave for the day. A no call, no show is exactly that. Call HR and ask them...
  13. Time management outside of work

    Have some stuff in the freezer that you can just thaw out and heat up so you don't have to cook every night. Something that you've cooked in batches big enough to freeze part of. Not having to cook...
  14. BE CAREFUL on social networks

    Leave a thank you note for your waiter
  17. One can be standing right next to a patient and they can fall. Sometimes there is nothing one can do about it. If he didn't call and got up by himself, how are you supposed to be responsible for that?...
  18. Jumping the Nursing Ship to Follow My Dreams

  20. A one-armed nurse and ADA?

    Not everything is covered under the ADA. Have you researched what is covered? It doesn't sound to me like it would be. I would suggest contacting an attorney or someone in an official capacity that...
  21. Miserable at work...Help I'm drowning...

    Can you transfer to another VA facility
  22. Tragically idiotic

    How do you get an air embolism from a peg
  23. I've had that happen a lot but it's been at shift change when I'm coming on. Nothing like getting dumped
  24. Recurrent Nightmares About Work

    I have them and they are always different. The other morning I had one and in it I was working at a hospital that I haven't worked at in 19
