  1. IM Blood Return

    I'm a new nurse and know that I should know this, however I'm surprised at how difficult it is (even searching my textbooks and the internet) to get a straight answer to what sounds like a simple question. Here's the question - What does it mean whe...

    ZASHAGALKA, Thank you for the explanation! The depot thing makes sense.

    Thank you for the detailed explanation that makes a lot of sense.

  5. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    the posts, but it's degenerated into name calling and emotional pitying - and that wasn't my intention in engaging in the discussion. I thought "tolerant" people accepted differing views. I thought that was the general mantra of the movement. Clea...

    but they were blocked by those who claim to care for individual rights, weren't they?

    in the VA system...tell me if you feel the same. :)
  8. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    Hi Talaxandra, I simply don't have the time to write a thesis here on Planned Parenthood and their agenda that is well documented dating back to the 1930's. Planned Parenthood is without question the number 1 provider of condoms in North America. T...
  9. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    I apparently have managed to move the question of the original post ... Quickly, one of the HUGE organizations that wishes to impose it's will on a world is PLANNED PARENTHOOD. Are you unaware of Planned Parenthood's influence on the United Nation...

    GOD LOVES the SINNER but HATES the SIN.
  11. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    I work overnight, and I've got to get to bed - but I assume everyone likes something of an immediate response to their post - my immediate response? You're kidding! You wrote - "The terms 'pro-abortion' and 'pro-homosexual' make it sound as though ...
  12. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    because someone else is asserting thier rights? Let's take a breath and thank goodness for anonymous forums and the outlet they provide. I'm a new nurse, I love nursing...but man am I frustrated by the things nurses do to each other :) Thanks for ...
  13. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    I speak very respectfully and sincerely to you. I applaud that you respect the right of anyone to refuse the right to care to another. Isn't that at the very base of the "pro-choice" movement? I know several people (mostly men) that believe themse...
  14. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    respect, you've not discredited my post. In fact, you've supported it! The tact of the most intolerant is to pretend the "fallacy" of those that disagree with them is self-evident. Yet, they reject self-evidence (i.e. that which appears "normal") ...
  15. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    Every VA hospital takes tax money from taxpayers but refuses treatment to most taxpayers.
  16. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    Proabortion and prohomosexual groups are incessantly trying to force their beliefs on Catholics and other Christians. Why do they and they're apologists consider it wrong for others to stand up for their own rights of a free conscience? It seems to...
  17. Call Offs

    Something I learned years ago about human nature, in general. People that put a policy like this in place - know that people abuse priveleges, and the reason they know is because THEY did it. Moving on may not be an option. If I had to call in sic...
  18. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    He was awarded a sum of money with calculations made and the understanding that the money would be used to care for her. He agreed. That's why he wanted the money, supposedly to care for her. Then, ONCE HE GOT THE MONEY, he somehow remembered or d...
  19. IM Blood Return

    Thank you so much for all the posts. If I'm understanding what is being written to me - then purely as a hypothetical, to help me understand - tell me if this is true. If I get blood back that means I'm in a vessel (probably an artery), which pure...
  20. How do You deal with Man-Hating Female Nurses?

    I'm in a similar environment. I've tried talking one on one with some of the most offensive ones; and they shut down and don't want to address what's obvious even to the nurse manager (a female). The nurse manager has acknowledged there's a problem...

    thank you.
  22. IM Blood Return

    I appreciate your post. I guess, where I get confused...and I know this is an extrememly naive understanding...but it's all getting into the systemic circulation at some point, isn't it? I admit, I don't understand...I know to discard, etc...but I ...

  24. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    I was addressing the aspect of the original thread which questioned, essentially, why anyone would question her ex-husband's motives. I was agreeing with the points made by another writer and would add that beyond his derogatory treatment of nursing...

    You said what I wanted to say better than I might have.
