I apologize if this is posted in the wrong section but I didn't know where else to post it. I have been researching for 3 days and cannot find a viable documented source as to whether Influenza A is anaerobic or aerobic. Does anyone know? I am leanin...

Obviously this kid did not go home to his mother the same way he came to you so I wonder what complete fabrication was given to her by this child, as evidenced by her extreme reaction toward you. I might approach her with that thought in mind about h...

Costs maybe $20 total, depending on how much hair someone has, could be less. 1. Saturate hair with Campho phenique & cover with towel. 2. Let sit for 10 minutes. 3. Wash multiple times (will still leave oily residue on hair for a couple days, ju...

Your Nursing Practice Act and BON will tell/ let you sift through the massive amounts of information to help you determine everything you can and cannot do as a nurse, in an entrepreneur endeavor. Then your individual state agencies will also have th...

One bottle of liquid Campho-phenique saturating the scalp and hair, wrapped in a towel, sit for 30 minutes, and then wash out several times. The oily residue will remain for a couple days but keep washing it. Repeat in 2 weeks. No more lice!

Am in the process of going through new-hire orientation at a Magnet hospital. Have been an RN for one year. During the Risk Management speech/portion of orientation the CNO comes to speak and states that we (nurses) should not think of Peer Review as...

Does anyone have RN reviews for Scott & White Hospital in College Station, TX? Have an interview and know nothing about the actual employment feel of the hospital. Would appreciate your comments. L&D preference, but all appreciated.

Or they just don't care because there are numerous applicants to fill the spots of people who don't want theirs.

The Small Business Administration has a business plan template if you register with them for free. They have free mentors & coaches for people trying to start up a business. Great resource.

You would think that with a group of "moral, adult, professionals" you could get passionate, noncatfights, but like I said...it's Jerry Springer time! Woot! Woot! Ha ha.

Man did you stir up a hornets nest. I knew it would which is why I read the posts so I could see THE CLAWS COME OUT! And never fail, they did! It's like listening to a conservative talk radio show. Or it's like watching Jerry Springer. Ha ha. If only...

I am a Med/Surg RN but wanted to give my personal experience on the issue. When I had my son 22 years ago it was THE most awful experience of my life! After 23 hours of labor, including 4 hours of pushing baby & 1.5 hours of pushing placenta...I ...

I have a question. Where do you find the PHN jobs, seriously? I looked at the Harris County Health Department, as I am near Houston, and the only "1" job for nursing was for an LVN. I find it very hard to believe that there is only one job for nursin...

Been a nurse for one year at an Ortho/Neuro/Trauma post-op med/surg unit. Moved to a new hospital but on a general post-op med/surg unit. Had an ortho, same day post-op patient. At 2230 noticed patients' foot was dark red, warm/hot, edema +2 on the l...

Thank you all so much for your advice and I would do it the same all over again! It's just so frustrating when every word during orientation for ALL places in general is such BS. I had been going through their "month long" orientation process where t...

That is fantastic advice! Man I wish I would have thought about that! Unfortunately I can no longer add notes after the 24 hour mark has passed but you can bet that will be my note if and when this happens again!

My husband built me a unique desk to fit the corner of our bedroom so I could be away from my family's noise. But the one must-have that helped me keep my sanity was that I bought a 10 gallon tank, put a beautiful & funny Betta in it, & put i...

They are critical on my post-op Med/Surg floor. We have to make sure the kidneys are functioning after anesthesia & whatever surgery has occurred. We deal with so many due-to-voids and surgery end times that we remain pretty accurate.

You two are probably right and I am probably just concerned with the unfamiliar.

Several of us took the Hurst Review (in class & one online) & I feel like it helped tremendously! We all passed. It was more than worth the money! And if you do not pass after taking their class they offer free extensively targeted tutoring t...

When my group went through school a couple of us took the ebook route the 1st semester and completely regretted it! It is so difficult to pinpoint find exactly what you're looking for on an ebook vs quickly finding it in a tangible book. I would not ...

Let me start off by saying to the admins that I am in no way asking for an MD's expert medical response here. I am simply asking for a nurses response based on their personal or professional experiences. Now, does anyone here have any experience wit...

I'm assuming you are trying to cause irritation on purpose because that was a particularly nasty comment you made. If you were not; however, and that was your true ignorance then allow me to enlighten you on something great you may miss out on due to...

Question, I will be turning in my two-week notice at my hospital next week. Signed a two year contract worth a total of $8000 (in their eyes, and according to contract.) I will have been there one year on 6/25. Anyone have any experience with this in...

Well, I thought I would follow-up in case anyone else was wondering for the same issues with their own circumstances. First, there was not a sign-on bonus and repayment was as dogfood341 remarked about recouping cost. So, they did prorate my amount o...
