It becomes a violation when a medical professional, who knows better, violates the patient's privacy rights. If you are sitting in the waiting room with him, not an employee of the facility, you are a fan. However, if you are an employee, it's you...

He left AMA before I got here? What a wonderful I'm gonna have!

It's the start of my VACATION!!!

The moon was full and we had No Falls!

No codes on my watch....not 1 atlas, not 1 code brown, not 1 code blue, no code neuro! I'm living RIGHT!!!!

2 people engaged in adult activities, accidentally pressing the call light!!

If you wanted to sleep at 1 am sir, this was not the place to show up complaining of abdominal pain. Wait, what's that, oh you've had the pain for 2 weeks now, it's a 10 out of 10. Oh , okay, right, I need a temperature. Mouth closed, please, Thanks...

A physician at the bedside, ready to perform a procedure. No call, no supplies, no consent, NOT READY sir!

"When I go up I'm gonna be a nurse just like daddy. Now take deep breath, in and out. Very good!"

Having been a nurse for 16 years now and having "hated" my job a time or two I will speak to what I have experienced. As a new grad (LPN) I worked with a lot of older more experienced nurses, they taught me a lot. They also complained a lot about th...

As a fellow human being, first and foremost, and an African American female, I want to to say that I am disgusted with your current situation and I will pray for you! That being said, You need to go! There is NO JOB IN THIS WORLD THAT IS WORTH YOUR ...

I was 25!!! I went to school with people 50+!!

As an Instructor, I have a few questions....Were you aware that you had to give meds prior to your arrival? If so, were you given time to research the medications prior to administration? When was the last time that you administered a medication IV...

Good luck to those of you going into a peri-op 101 course. I loved mine, it came very easy to me. The nurses weren't always nice or helpful but the ones that were made my experience better. I have been an O.R. nurse now for 10 years, that's hard to b...

WOW...you really sound as if you have been wronged by your instructors. Did you fail nursing school? You really do live up to your tag name. Let me just say..as a former nursing student (LPN, ADN, and BSN) and a current PN instructor, we DO NOT L...

I think we can all agree that this was a staffing issue. We can all also agree that we would stay because we truly would not abandon our patients. The real issue is safety. Is she safe to continue working? Where does the facilities responsibility to...

URINEEKA (Eureeka)...I'm outta here I just bought these Dansko's!

I was actually thinking the same thing...it's seems strange that the pt. is only in the 400's when you are there. I would also look at the time of day, maybe the other people are checking him later/earlier. Does the resident know if they have been ch...

"The bigger they are the harder they are to catch...Get back here!"

I must say I have had days/jobs just like this. I don't feel like you have any reason to apologize. I feel like you did the BEST you could do, and I don't even know you. This was clearly a BAD environment and the fact that you had the guts to stand u...

"Listen Honey, YOU think YOU got it bad...let ME tell you about the night before Christmas...better grab a seat!"

I attended the UOP and while there were things I liked, there were things I did not like (but I stuck it out and now have my BSN). I hope you enjoy it...Good luck to you ;-)
