    safe assignment

    proud nurse replied to martymoose's topic in General Nursing

    It's pretty much like this at my job, too. The more we function this way, it's like it proves to management that it can be done. When I complain about our staffing ratios, they don't seem to...

    When I was in high school I worked as a waitress. The head waitress would set up little messes in obscure places to make sure we were cleaning behind equipment. I thought that was obnoxious until I...

    Nurses doing nebs

    proud nurse replied to sistrmoon's topic in General Nursing

    RT comes to do the neb tx. We have to call for a PRN tx, and usually they come promptly. I don't mind not having to do them at the hospital. Most of the time I'm really too busy, even though it's...

    Workplace Cowardice

    proud nurse replied to Mr. Murse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have always preferred a direct approach because I think it makes sense to talk to the person most responsible for the issue. However, some people try to avoid confrontation at all costs. Perhaps...

    If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    proud nurse replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    OP, What happens when that person can't pass the NCLEX-PN either? If a person is a poor test taker, then does the content of the exam really matter? I took both exams, they are both challenging in...

    proud nurse replied to KJoRN81's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree something is being done. She was drug tested and has to have her narcs cosigned. I worked in LTC for years. That would be a huge inconvenience to have someone witness/cosign a narc every time...

    proud nurse replied to tokmom's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Have they changed that? My advisor told me that the capstone couldn't be doubled up. I agree tokmom, that's one class to have all by itself. So much writing and tweaking...but then you're done!!!...

    proud nurse replied to TheNGTKingRN's topic in General Nursing

    My coworkers and I often vent, especially in areas that require a badge to scan to get into. It is a safe haven, and wiser than venting on the floor. And I would sure hate to learn there were...
