    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Well yes, I am from Canada. However, I don't know if you aware of the fact that we ALSO had Native Americans in Canada. And like I said, yes, by our modern day standards, what happened was many...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    I beg to differ. Those who already have insurance won't be affected? And where do you think the money is going to come from to pay for all this? Taxes will have to be raised, if not now, then most...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    And on that note...how is it ok to raise taxes for everyone to pay for social aid, but not ok to pay a bit more at the grocery store so that more American people would have

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    I didn't say the massacres were equal, I said it went both ways. And like I said, how many peoples do you know who not only let the people they conquered keep land, but gave them benefits and kept...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    No, that wasn't my 'complaint'. What I was saying is that it needs to be LEGAL immigration. I have nothing against legal immigration. Like I said, our ancestors were legal immigrants at some point...

    But ok, I get who you are referring to now too. And as a Quebecer, I'll admit to liking some of her songs lol. I blame my mom for that though. I also blame her for exposing me to Donny Osmond, so her...

    Oh all right, I'll apologize about the specialist comment. I still think it, but I'll take back saying it. Is it ok to say she should explore the source of her anger

    I hope you weren't referring to me as the "Quebec

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Well other than irrational, do you have any other reason to offer for the response I got? It seemed pretty angry to me, and since I in no way attacked her, she had no reason to react that way at me....

    Good offer or keep on moving?

    I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but Id say it depends on how long you have been looking for work and how many offers you have received. Lets face it. The economy is horrible. Grads are having a very...

    LPN/RN ...Is it all the same? Please Advise!

    Depends on where you work. Being an RN is just as stressful, but for different reasons. However, as an RN, you have more opportunities to get away from the bedside, if that is what is freaking you...

    Wow, ok, this thread has officially been derailed by a few "Occupy" movement supporters. Guess its time to move on to a more informational

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Well someone clearly has something against Canada. Not too sure why. But either way, I am here legally, on a work Visa. If USCIS saw fit to give it to me, and my American employers could not find an...

    Nope, needs and rights are not the same thing. Try

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Right, and the whole argument that illegal immigrants do jobs that Americans wouldnt do. That is preposterous. Maybe they dont want to do them at the current salaries. But if you have no other...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Ok, well for one, this conversation isnt about illegal immigration. Second, the fact that we were COLONISTS at one point, not illegal immigrants, is besides the point. There was no concept of...
  17. Hi ladies and gents. I have a question to ask your expert minds. We have to do yearly inservice training for the staff at the company where I work. A colleague and I put together the packets. One of...

    Am I in trouble?

    Oops, yep, Potassium Chloride could definitely have serious repercussions. That would have been important to give, especially if the doctor felt the need to order it

    Am I in trouble?

    Although I agree with you that a good grasp of the English language is important in properly caring for our patients, at least in an English speaking country, I don't think it has anything to do with...
  20. Right, that is what Ive been telling people! But everyone is so used to having the 'stabilize the spine' thing drummed into their heads that they automatically answer that. I do get that you can do...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Sure, Quebec has the lowest education cost in the nation. They also have the highest taxes. And with all the student loans I will be paying back over the next 20 years, as well as the 45% of my income...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Having access to care would have been great, I am sure. However, universal healthcare would not have necessarily have been the answer. I worked as an RN in Quebec. I have had several patients who...

    Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    In answer to the poster who said she was from Canada, I am also from Canada, and LEFT because of how stupid high the taxes are to encourage the mindset of entitlement we Canadians develop. I was also...

    Bullies at the work place.. vent

    I would say it depends on the situation, as others have said. Asking the person should always come first in my opinion. For all you know, they did give the med but forgot to document. What happens...
  25. THIS! I totally agree. If you take all the responsibility out of the child's hands, then they don't bother to be careful on their own, they just assume everyone else is doing it. When I was in school,...
