    duskyjewel replied to ms.gin728's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Except you wouldn't have been falsely charged. You would have been validly charged after filling out an online order form and clicking on a button to consent to the processing of a charge to your...

    New CNA

    duskyjewel replied to madisonnnn_'s topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    No class can instill that. That's something people either get trained in as they're being raised, learn the hard way, or never

    How to survive without a support system??

    duskyjewel replied to joljenni's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm sorry your family is not supportive. Do you have good friends who can fulfill that support role when you need it? Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.

    Would you do this...? Thoughts....

    duskyjewel replied to amoLucia's topic in General Nursing

    The $1600 is what they are willing to pay for the privilege of not having to take responsibility for doing that. Wish I had money to waste like

    RN to BSN in MI? Y or N if plan to be stay @ home mom?

    duskyjewel replied to michiganRN1234's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    applesxoranges gave good advice, but even if you choose not to work (for pay) at all for a while, once you have that BSN no one can ever take that away from you. You can always take a refresher...

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    And it's clear your ignorance of my faith is just as deep as whatever claim you try to make against me. I've made my points, and demonstrated that many of you are bigoted against the religious . I...

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    There are many people who don't support gay marriage and are not religious. There are even gay people who don't support legalized gay marriage. Why do you insist on seeing your opponents...

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Yes, He does give us free will. But we are supposed to exercise it in accordance with His law. Listening to one's conscience is only valid when that conscience is well-formed. I'm paraphrasing, but...

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You're advocating viewpoint discrimination. You think that people with certain views shouldn't be allowed to exercise their inborn rights as citizens of this country and their state. The problem...

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Okay, so then only those who hold traditional moral views shouldn't be allowed to influence legislation? Because voting against Prop 8 was just as much a statement of a moral position as was voting...

    No, it was a proposition to define marriage as between one woman and one man. It passed, resoundingly, but the court struck it

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Exactly. That's how the nurses I work with explained it to me. Thank you. The morphine may help the person relax enough to "let go" but it's their disease that kills

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I live in a state where euthanasia/assisted suicide is not legal, and isn't likely to become so. I am perfectly capable of my job, and will still be when I move up into being a hospice nurse....

    Voluntary Euthanasia

    duskyjewel replied to GARY_FL_NURSE's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    When it's about what *I* am expected to do in *my* work, then it's about me. And I will not violate my own moral beliefs. No one has the right to ask that of me, or of anyone else. I will have to...

    duskyjewel replied to ah2829's topic in General Nursing

    This works for school too. One of my CNA classmates avoided the 2-3 year wait lists in Maricopa County by moving just one county north. She's about to finish her RN this semester, and her husband...
