   What did you miss the most while allnurses was "closed"?

   Paws2people replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

   Oh no! Never say the "Q" word in nursing. That's when all hell breaks loose...

   I'm a CNA, will I lose my license?

   Paws2people replied to Websterwiki's topic in CNA/MA

   I'm curious... Who took care of your patients the hour plus you went missing? In the future when you are sick, notify the proper higher ups and get the okay to leave before you go home.

   Paws2people replied to Mr.Beast's topic in CNA/MA

   How about something along the lines of Radiology, Ctscan, X-ray tech? Or maybe a Respiratory Therapist?

   Burnout as a CNA and the impact on nursing

   Paws2people replied to YKA9727's topic in CNA/MA

   Don't let this discourage you from nursing. Use it as motivation that you will not be that type of nurse. Plus being an aide versus a nurse are very different from one another. Try and stay positive, ask for help when you need it, and keep moving for...

   C.Diff Waste on Floor?

   Paws2people replied to newtonursing123's topic in Safety

   The no gloves and lack of handwashing bothers me more than the trash bags. After all, the trash is just sitting there. Those unwashed/ungloved hands are going from room to room. Patient to patient. Coworker to coworker...

    Peer feedback

    Paws2people replied to Ahopkins81's topic in General Nursing

    This. Plus don't forget about your aides! HELPING them when they stressed. Nothing upsets me more than when I have 16-30 patients and all the nurses are chilling in the break room. Meanwhile calls bells and alarms are going off while I'm in the middl...

    CNAs sleeping on the job... What can I do as a new nurse?

    Paws2people replied to jessica0rae's topic in New Nurse

    Have management address it first in a group meeting, but tell them you don't want the CNA's knowing the complaints came from you. Then when they are sleeping, wake them up and say, "You fell asleep, I am waking you up so you don't get in trouble." Th...

    Paws2people replied to Reginalusk's topic in CNA/MA

    You need to get an admin to edit this post for you. Besides the nursing home's name, you also put the DON's name. That combined with your user name and the specific details of your post is risky. Plus you even have the exact time of the incident. As ...

    Are You Really a Nurse?

    Paws2people replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    A nurse in my mind follows this path: Go to nursing school, graduate, take NCLEX, pass, receive license, get job. Once you pass the NCLEX and get a license, you are a nurse.
