  1. Let's call it what it is....

    sneeds replied to sneeds's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I just read this post: Political Hope for Bedside Nurses. Sounds like an interesting read. I'm really shocked by how many nurses are out there and how little organize to stand up. Probably too tired...

  2. Stop complaining about your job - It could be worse.

    sneeds replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    You are obviously management and/or those in power trying to scare nurses. I'll tell you why I've come to this conclusion: If a nurse with any experience at all at bedside in these times is able to...

  3. Is this what nursing has turned in to?

    sneeds replied to vegnurse21's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It wouldn't be so hard on our bodies if we didn't have so much stress during those on days. My days off are like this: I have energy till about 1pm. After that im zoned out and planning on hopefully a...

    me too. That's why I just had to post

    I just learned this new polling tool. Maybe with help from you, a new poll can be created. Maybe surveymonkey.com link. My poll above doesn't give yes or no

  6. Family Members Who Exaggerate the Situation

    sneeds replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Nursing Humor

    I noticed that in some patients, when their family visits they become different patients - more stoic or more defensive or less personal. Very small percentage but interesting to notice when it...

  7. NNU...Where do I sign!?

    sneeds replied to lkulmann's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I just wanted to add that in my experience there are about 10 to 20% of nurses and techs combined that are burned out, in the wrong line of work, disheartened and beatened down - whatever it is that...

  8. NNU...Where do I sign!?

    sneeds replied to lkulmann's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I think that if the nurses feel that current unions are corrupt, organize to form new ones. Online technology is sooooo awesome for this. We have a choice - we can build something better and more...

  9. NNU...Where do I sign!?

    sneeds replied to lkulmann's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    This was an awesome movie about a women laborer in a factory scene who finally had enough and stood up on a table and screamed NO MORE! That took less than 2 hrs. hehehe. Great recommendation laborer....

  10. NNU...Where do I sign!?

    sneeds replied to lkulmann's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Is there a way for this site to create a survey per state to find out the interest in unionizing or forming coalitions? I'm sure that there is a lot of interest but also a lot of fear and misinfo. I...

  11. NNU...Where do I sign!?

    sneeds replied to lkulmann's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    The problem is that it won't get better if we just accept it as the new normal. Social engineering as a result of corporate greed is causing these labor problems. How can there be budget problems when...

  12. Is this what nursing has turned in to?

    sneeds replied to vegnurse21's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Let's not forget too that the nurse is so liable and responsible for so much. I'm responsible to follow up on my ACT's work, reviewing orders to make sure they won't harm the patient. and deal with...

  13. Escape Fire documentary

    sneeds posted a topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Please watch this documentary because this is what our nation and world is watching when it comes to healthcare in the U.S. At first I was so inspired by doctors expressing the need to taking time to...

  14. Nursing school with Children

    sneeds replied to Friskee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I suggest baby going to good daycare center if you have access to one. You as a mother will know if it feels like a good choice. 3-4 days a week with your husbands support should help you. If you are...

  15. Stop complaining about your job - It could be worse.

    sneeds replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    It's time we take care our our patients as well as ourselves. I read so much about fear about this basic

  16. Stop complaining about your job - It could be worse.

    sneeds replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I don't feel it's an attitude thing with the scene I work within. I hardly get a chance to educate with all the changing orders relative to md's rounding times and all the intervention tests - when...

  17. Stop complaining about your job - It could be worse.

    sneeds replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I watched this and thought it was very good. Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American

  18. Stop complaining about your job - It could be worse.

    sneeds replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I totally agree! It's a total shame we're reduced to this treatment. That propaganda definitely bit me and the ceo's are building new buildings or increasing their salaries while increasing patient...
