  1. *HELP* being accused of gross negligence

    In the end I decided the stress of it wasn’t worth my health! My husband got stage 3 lymphoma, fought hard and went into remission since my last post, I got so sick from the stress of it and that woman that I decided to move on. Applied to 4 jobs on ...
  2. *HELP* being accused of gross negligence

    I’m pretty sure why it’s happening. When this manager started within 3 months all but 6 of nurses quit. How that went down without intervention from higher up I don’t understand. We were a tight unit, family like. So we all know that this manager was...
  3. *HELP* being accused of gross negligence

    So I am a outpatient surgery nurse at a small rural hospital. I have been diagnosed with RA which went from mild to bad really quick. Some days are better than others and I'm still working with rhuematologist to find right combination of meds . My qu...
  10. What Makes a Great Nurse

    Many of them did not chose to become an addict. There are many people that are dependent but we call them addicts and there is a difference. You will hopefully learn that with experience. People have traumatic, incredibly painful things happen to the...
  11. For me the problem is when I'm given an attitude, like I'm a jerk, because the cna had to do her job. Just like most other people have said I am happy to help when I have time to. But when I'm busting my butt to care for my patients I really can not ...
