   Nurses make more than median salary, so you should be grateful for what you earn?

   frenchtoastwaffles replied to pecantreechipmunk's topic in General Nursing

   This, and also I don't know how everyone else does it but we generally don't give really hard assignments to travel nurses because we don't know them. We don't know their skill set, we don't know...

   frenchtoastwaffles replied to pecantreechipmunk's topic in General Nursing

   There's actually truth to this. Hospitals benefit from paying these wild contracts for travel staff but do actually save themselves a buttload of money by not paying benefits towards them. It's...

   Does it feel to everyone else that many newer nurses glamourize the ER and ICU?

   frenchtoastwaffles replied to The0Walrus's topic in General Nursing

   The problem with floor nursing is that while ideally you have the opportunity to build rapport and teach, you oftentimes do not have time to do so in a meaningful or effective way. Yes, when things...

   frenchtoastwaffles replied to The0Walrus's topic in General Nursing

   Why do we still wonder why new grads want to work in ICU or ED when floor nursing has a reputation for being understaffed and doesn’t peak the interest of many people? I knew when I was in school 5...

   Working smarter, not harder?

   frenchtoastwaffles posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hey everyone, I recently changed jobs from subacute rehab to tele, and I'm having a bit of a hard time managing my time when there are so many different things going on. There are different goals of...

   Any nurses that love nursing and love their job??

   frenchtoastwaffles replied to nets5010's topic in General Nursing

   Love being a nurse, hate the bureaucratic bs that surrounds it. It’s hard to actually do what you love and what you trained for when non-nurses dictate how you work your shift. Too much time spent...

   Unsafe Environment for Graduate Nurse?

   frenchtoastwaffles replied to KMcRN19's topic in General Nursing

   I would be interviewing with other units if I were you. If a 14 bed ER only has 2 nurses on it, what happens on the days when it's that nurse with a 2 week orientation and you alone after your...

   Women's Right to Choose

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

   This is a straw man argument, you’ve stated in your post that you think her writings seem patronizing and that you think she had a dim vision of humanity, and this is opinion based. No one will...

   Women's Right to Choose

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

   Thanks, I'm able to find it but from what I'm seeing Sanger only edited these proceedings? This was in 1927 prior to the Holocaust. It seems that this conference was mostly about world population and...

    Women's Right to Choose

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

    I still have access to my school library but don't see anything linking Margaret Sanger with Eugen Fischer. I don't see anything for Proceedings of the World Population Conference 1927, my query...

    Women's Right to Choose

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

    My beliefs wouldn't be in laws, it would be a lack of beliefs in law to allow a pregnant person to choose what happens to their own body. Most will carry, some will not. You do not know my opinion on...

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

    I never said you were a bad person, and no one said anything about evil intent. You made a statement that your favorite family is a religious minority, and I attached a link to a story about how this...

    Find the quote that says it was "best to abort poor minorities and the disabled". My personal opinion on someone's decision to terminate a pregnancy has no bearing in this conversation, and I don't...
