    Super_RN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Help, help, oh help! I am 23-years-old and my skin is worse now than it has ever been (couldn't be the stress from nursing, now could it!?!). I mean, it's not terrible where every square centimeter...

    Are you going to work tommorow in the big storm?

    Super_RN replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    Last year I actually lived right across the street from the hospital--I walked to work every day. When we had snow storms last year, I had no problem picking up when others couldn't get in. I'm...

    Are you going to work tommorow in the big storm?

    Super_RN replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    Not everyone has the means to stay in a hotel. And to answer your other question--we did not have anyone available. Were there school closings? That's a given. We do NOT know anyone to watch our...

    Are you going to work tommorow in the big storm?

    Super_RN replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I knew it was coming. However, I wasn't able to go in earlier because I had no one to watch our daughter until my husband was home. At that point, it was so bad that we indeed slid off the road...

    ppd question

    Super_RN replied to missladyrn's topic in General Nursing

    You shouldn't have to pay for anything. To ease your mind though, mine always looked different the first day or so depending on who did them, and how deep they went. I bruised one time and that...

    Pushing Dilaudid?

    Super_RN replied to chacmool's topic in Patient Medications

    OP: We push our meds. Some nurses don't dilute it, I do. Burns less and it's easier to push more slowly if it's diluted. FWIW, I've only administered Morphine gtts (in reference to narcotic gtts),...

    Congrats!! One thing I always do is a send a handwritten thank you card after the interview. Much more personal and eye catching than an email :) GOOD

    Super_RN replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    My husband attempted to take me to work last evening (I was scheduled for this morning), but we couldn't even get off our road. Let me rephrase that: We did get off our road, doing two 360's and...

    I'm 28, have been a RN for 7 1/2 years. Currently I work as a float nurse in a hospital, 3 12's per week. I am probably not the best person to answer if I do anything outside of work, because my...

    wearing makeup to work?

    Super_RN replied to meghan91's topic in General Nursing

    I wear a concealer under my eyes, and on whatever surprises the Zit Fairy left me. Physician's Formula loose powder is about the only one that doesn't make my skin worse, a bit of eye shadow, and...

    Did your Docs get you a Christmas gift or recognize your work?

    Super_RN replied to rkitty198's topic in General Nursing

    I think we are really blessed at my facility. Our docs do the normal cookies/fruits/etc as well. One surgeon buys the entire nursing staff lunch from a nice restaurant for 2 days--so if you work one...

    I've really only had this happen once, when a nurse I worked with always cames in reeking of garlic. When I say always, I mean every single time he came to work, which was 5 nights/week. It was SO...
