I certainly didnt apologize for anything. Regarding the first post I suggested the OP is a pervert and probably sexually attracted to her own offspring. Regarding the second post I commented something...
Why not, back cant handle it? How about PACU. It can be fun, your ICU background would be valuable, fast pace, no baths, and there'd always be someone there to help you. Or, how about supervising....
I worked in an ICU that had to deal with the bariatric cases that didnt go well, and I dont mean that facility but all over the nation. Some of these people were so big we sent them to Sea World or...
Hmmmm... I thought there was going to be major revisions in 2005 to ACLS based on evidence that what we are doing doesnt always help that much ie code survival etc-
We didnt have to undress in front of other nursing student with the exception of one time where we removed our shirts (blouses) for ausceltation, heart tones etc. There were only two men in my class...
Who says this? Ive never been told I could or couldnt. Personally I dont care. Im a man. I have hair. Get over it. Besides, look at the girls. They wear whatever they want. Long sleeve shirts under...
If you arent in nusring school yet it may be hard for you to tell, and certainly too soon to make a decision. If you think about it you'll probably find there is already an area that interests you. I...
My first boss is 4'11". Shes an excellent nurse. Not always easy to pair up with. I should have bought her a pair of platform shoes. Make sure you know where your foot stool is. The unit Im on now has...

Then why arent you studying? :angryfire Just kidding, even nursing students need a break. I did. I took three months off after I graduated. Didnt do anything related to nursing- Take care of...
The last two units Ive worked on had dedicated charge nurse pools. These nurses did not take assigments unless it was the middle of the night and even then only one. Their role was to manage the unit,...
Good Student! Its taken me a few years to enjoy reading again, which had been one of my favorite past times. Now I have three "books", not including a couple of textbooks I have to read-
What made you think I was referring to you? You of course. I was referring to the original poster, and teasing at that. My mistake, I should have used "book" instead- Have a nice
There are a few good points in this post although I feel that those who protray so called death by dosage are just trying to get attention, usually financial. Ive been a nurse for only four years but...
Ive said it before and I'll say it again. It doesnt matter how good the shoe is. What matters is your feet, what type they are, and how you walk. You can spend $300.00 on a pair of shoes and if they...
Keep in mind that the PA an IL certs will probably not stand in your state depending on statutes. In some states RNs can replace other providers including paramedics as long as they get further...
Few states have actual "prehospital RN's" and I'm not sure thats even a cert or just a title? A call to your states governing EMS body will confirm what a RN can or cannot do regarding scope of...
