  2. Agitated Pt Makes for Hard G-Button Feedings

    I didn't take what JustBeachy said as speaking to you like you were an idiot. We all know autocorrect changes words and the written word is not always taken as it would be spoken. I believe...
  3. Do I even have a chance? Pls be honest

    Since you say you are a member, you know how the drill goes. How would we know whether you will get into a nursing program? There are too many variables, including ones we don't know (ease of getting...
  4. Quit or give 2 weeks?

    It has been my experience that in order for a child to go home with a trach or on a vent, the family has to be able to care for them. Although nursing may only be providing respite care, that care...
  5. Elephant in the China Shop

    I'm having a serious case of déjà vu reading this post. Maybe the "we" refers to the other persona that was a controversial poster about this kind of topic. Are you sure OP that you are not...
  6. That was my underlying message although the patients would likely take it to mean otherwise
  7. revoked license

    Your "having problems as we all do" response was unlike most since few of us have misdemeanors or felony records. In my state, a permanent license revocation is just that...permanent. You would...
  8. You talk about an interview with the BON. Are you planning on meeting with them to review whether they will allow you to be licensed when you graduate due to past mental health issues? Or are you...
  9. If you werent a nurse, what other career would you do?

    It's so sad that you don't have any aspirations for your life
  10. Whatdaya think this is?

    "Careful, sharp corners, don't crash"?? What type of things are people driving/riding in the hallways that this is a concern? Couldn't they put a caution⚠️ or slow sign there instead? I...
  11. Let go for no reason-Feeling discouraged :(

    This kind of thing is not exclusive to nursing. Probationary periods are a time when the employer is still interviewing you and you are interviewing them. You could have quit and said it wasn't a good...
  12. He does surgery on many of the patients on our floor. He also takes care of some of the sickest patients in the
  13. Whatdaya think this is?

    She didn't heed the warning not to go down the forbidden hall! Adventure, Ood, where are
  14. Doulbing Up NRSE Courses

    Unless the program has changed, I would not submit an assignment until Friday night at the earliest, if due on Sunday. Our syllabus, rubric and assignment never matched and someone usually asked for...

  16. Whatdaya think this is?

    The joke's on us? It is a black and white picture of mountains and sunshine torn in half horizontally. Do I win a prize? This is actually what appears on my phone app. I don't think your picture...
  17. Autism Nursing?

    Some large children's hospitals have clinics dedicated to diagnosing and working with children with autism. They provide care specifically for kids in the spectrum. They are usually staffed with...
  18. Those big transition times can really stink! Moving from pediatric to adult services is a huge adjustment for
  19. What nursing task do you loathe???

    If not, then we can be members of the same club. I'm sure there are others out there! I take very good care of my own teeth, but I can't stand watching others brush
  20. Pros and cons of nursing insurance

    Just look at the number of nurses who post on here stating something happened, they don't know what to do but can't afford an attorney. Nurses can be accused of many things and be totally innocent....
  21. Also feel free to message me. This is absolutely not true. It doesn't matter what she thinks. A neurologist does not have to give the diagnosis. In fact, in some institutions, it is not neurology who...
  22. Special Snowflake!

    I don't know what year you took boards but you left out the all so important lamp oiling. Nurses didn't really touch patients, so our boards weren't hard. The answer to all of the scenario questions...
  23. Just wanted to add that if autism parenting is made an Olympic event, it should be classified as a million mile marathon because it requires stamina and a lot of perseverance to keep working toward...
  24. What nursing task do you loathe???

    I've found my twin! I graduated the same year as you and have the same aversion which my own family thinks is hysterical. I can tolerate all sorts of sites, smells, and body fluids but dentures and...
  25. My son will soon be 20. We gave up on the dentist. It would take more drugs to get me through the visit than him (just kidding, I think). He requires general anesthesia for dental cleanings, his...
