  1. Nurse who appeared on Dr. Phil suspended

    Mystery5 replied to imenid37's topic in General Nursing

    That sounds very exploitive, for the show to engage in this type of sensationalism. I thought Dr Phil was more respectable than that. Shame on him! You guys are right, if it had been a man doing the...

    Well, here I am at work. I have my ideal pt under my care tonight. She's a 90 yr old lol, had a minor stroke and is going home tommorrow. Turns out I took care of her husband 10 years ago when I...

  3. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    The way some people are talking, you'd think all us lil ol nurses are billionares!:chuckle I mean, get real folks! It's a profession with decent pay, but not some easy money gig. We bust our buns and...

  4. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with you, though. It's not the teachers at all. I've really liked my kids' teachers. They are frustrated as well. Every year state and federal regulations keep piling on more and more...

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    My school district is extremely homeschool friendly. I'm meeting with the principal tommorrow to work out next years schedule. I'll send them for PE, music, etc. My girls will be 4th and 5th

  6. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    The thing about the SYSTEM these days that drove me over the edge are: 1) Meaningless information overload--- If I get one more handout on 'How to read to my child' or ' How to help my child with...

    Hey, this is too cool prickly! I knew you were a role model! Wow, I'll be pumping you for information!

    Mystery5 replied to imenid37's topic in General Nursing

    You should see another forum I used to post on. This is tame compared to that one!:chuckle It was a religious one

  9. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Hey, I'm going to be homeschooling next year. How do you like it? I think it's going to fit better into my work schedule, and also avoid all the current BS in the school systems. Yes, it takes a...

  10. Nurse who appeared on Dr. Phil suspended

    Mystery5 replied to imenid37's topic in General Nursing

    We wouldn't have known anything if they hadn't have gone on TV, however. If someone wants to go public with their dirty laundry, well each to his own. But then don't complain that everyone is talking...

  11. Nurse who appeared on Dr. Phil suspended

    Mystery5 replied to imenid37's topic in General Nursing

    I had a pt with close to that once. I think it was a 0.47. He an extremely hardcore ETOHer with quite a high tolerance. I was

  12. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Being a teacher sounds like a prescription for a nervous breakdown to me. I just couldn't stand the impertinant, noisy heathens one bit! And then, having to deal with their parents (and their parents'...

  13. Nurse who appeared on Dr. Phil suspended

    Mystery5 replied to imenid37's topic in General Nursing

    The thing is, if my grandma were in that nursing home and I watched that show, it might make me wonder about the care grandma was getting by that nurse. The public is already a bit paranoid about...

  14. Nurse who appeared on Dr. Phil suspended

    Mystery5 replied to imenid37's topic in General Nursing

    I thought Dr Phil was a well respected kind of guy. Don't you think it's rather Jerry Springerish to show a film clip like this on TV? That's very

  15. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I commend you, prickly. You are a role model for us

  16. Opinions on interview clothes

    Mystery5 replied to sandiLa's topic in General Nursing

    If it's a hot day, what about a nice

  17. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Mystery5 replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I work to live, not live to work... I guess everyone is different, but nursing is my vocation. It allows me to be paid and do good in the world simultaneously. I find it hard to imagine it being the...

  18. Psych pts needing medical tx

    Mystery5 replied to Morning-glory's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Yes, psyche pts can ellicit this feeling in nurses! You know, I am known for my bedside manner. I can establish trust and rapport usually very quickly. But psyche pts do not interest me whatsoever....

  19. Opinions on interview clothes

    Mystery5 replied to sandiLa's topic in General Nursing

    Don't forget the iron! A nice crease makes a good impression of attentiveness to detail and neatness.

  20. Opinions on interview clothes

    Mystery5 replied to sandiLa's topic in General Nursing

    I always dress very conservatively. If you lost weight then check thrift stores for all the stuff donated by those who gained weight. You can probably find just the thing. IMO, better to err on the...

  21. RN nervous about finding a new primary MD

    Mystery5 replied to Genista's topic in General Nursing

    I picked my doc from work. I wanted a woman, and I liked her and the way she treated her pts. My neck was bothing me the other day, so I got a prescription for 20 massages right there at work, without...

  22. Tired of people disrespecting where I work before I even start

    Mystery5 replied to sarah_bellum's topic in General Nursing

    It's a small town thing, as a poster said above. A lot of folks in smalltowns these days are actually transplants from big cities I've noticed, and they tend to drive a zillion miles to pay $.05 less...

  23. US Supreme Court outlaws 'medical marijuana'

    Mystery5 replied to begalli's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You know, I'm not sure why all these goody goodies are so down on some loser trying to get some pot by pretending to have cancer! I mean, you'd think the world was coming to an end! While we're at it,...

  24. US Supreme Court outlaws 'medical marijuana'

    Mystery5 replied to begalli's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    The drug companies are a huge, vested interest that contribute a ton of money, probably to both parties actually. Our whole political system is corrupt in my opinion. I voted for Nadar in the last...

  25. Please help me with my goals statement for application

    Mystery5 replied to Sarah Bellum's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't mention that you specifically wanted a quickie program to get through in a year. Also, I agree with the above critiques. How about: Since I was a young girl, I've always been interested in...
