  1. Had my first bad clinical experience - L&D

    cyc0sys replied to FiremedicMike's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I never said it had anything to do with being male nurse. I thought it was wasting time when they could've been providing education and teaching. You know, the reason I was there for clinicals at a...

  2. Had my first bad clinical experience - L&D

    cyc0sys replied to FiremedicMike's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Sorry to hear that. I didn't even get to do L&D because I was a male nurse and the patients had the option to choose if I was allowed on the floor. They elected not to allow me on the floor and I...

  3. Unvaccinated: Indefensible

    cyc0sys replied to guest1168940's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a side effect of the vaccination. Hopefully you don't have that and your symptoms subside. Call on God, but row away from the

  4. How soon can we expect to see cases go down now that Biden is president?

    cyc0sys replied to DesiDani's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I guess patient rights to autonomy go out the window in your Totalitarian World view. Pay no attention to the facts. Everyone will eventually get the 'VID'. The majority of people who do get it...

  5. New Director of nursing

    cyc0sys replied to shellyoo's topic in LTC: Directors, Assistant

    I worked LTC/Subacute for 4 years. I agree with everything but item #3. Call-outs should be evaluated on a case by case bases. They should also be balanced to the call-in schedule. For example, I...

  6. Pensacola State College LPN Program

    cyc0sys replied to alexisg96's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I'd consider applying to UWF. PSC has a great deal of turnovers with instructors and problems maintaining

  7. MED ERROR went to corporate

    cyc0sys replied to A.A.I.'s topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    1) There are 2 kinds of nurses. Those who've made med errors and those who are going to make med errors. 2) No one has ever died directly from pain. 3) Corporate and the Law do not care...

  8. Six people charged in plot to kidnap Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer

    cyc0sys replied to herring_RN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

  9. Riots in Minneapolis

    cyc0sys replied to TomPaine's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    How would white supermacists benefit from burning down white owned businesses, communities, and properties? It seems to me these places are being attacked indecriminately. Why would they attack...

  10. Riots in Minneapolis

    cyc0sys replied to TomPaine's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I think your virtue signaling is interfering with your white privilege. If you're not scared of unchecked police power and corruption against ALL people. You're part of the problem, not the

  11. Riots in Minneapolis

    cyc0sys replied to TomPaine's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I stand corrected. However, I still believe it to be a “legally defective” charge as the article below states. The defense will argue the officer was simply restraining Floyd and was unaware of...

  12. Riots in Minneapolis

    cyc0sys replied to TomPaine's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    There has always been a 3 tier 'justice' system in this country: rules for the rich, rules for the poor, and rules for the police. In fact, we've been at war in this country for a long time and you...

  13. Riots in Minneapolis

    cyc0sys replied to TomPaine's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    That doesn't really change the game. Mechanism of disease or injury aside, the DA still has to prove Chauvin intended to kill Floyd in order for the 3rd degree murder charge to

  14. Riots in Minneapolis

    cyc0sys replied to TomPaine's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    The lesson here is simple: A polite society, is an armed society. People who know the system isn't working for them take responsibility for their own personal safety and security. Much like the armed...

  15. Deciding between medical coding and LPN

    cyc0sys replied to peanutbutterfly's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Most positions are low paying to start. Working for physicians in private are not inclusive to just coding. They will require you to perform other administrative tasks such as scheduling patients,...

  16. Does Trump have Covid?

    cyc0sys replied to Emergent's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Of course he's smart. He's worth 2 billion. He's also living rent-free in your brain. So think about that for a minute. However, I'm not really certain what is more dangerous in the emotional...

  17. Does Trump have Covid?

    cyc0sys replied to Emergent's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I seriously doubt that. He'd be pushing Plaquenil or better yet Esbriet. Most hydroxychloroquine suppliers have actually reduced their prices. If you want to throw shade. I suggest asking some of...

  18. Nursing as a twenty one year old hispanic male

    cyc0sys replied to gabe55605's topic in Men in Nursing

    I completely agree with that sentiment. Whether it's agressive patients or catty coworkers. A bit of testosterone tends to balance the floor. I've worked with female nurses who would rather work with...

  19. Younger nurse

    cyc0sys replied to Guest973564's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    A 'salty old' Army nurse once told me, "Your perception is your reality". Dave Chappelle took it a step further when he said, "I support anyone's right to be who they want to be. My question is: to...

  20. LTC Residents and Workers Face Tragedy

    cyc0sys replied to J.Adderton's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Wouldn't want patient or staff safety getting in the way of their revenue stream. No worries. The coroner will report COVID-19 on the death certs. If you don't plan to succeed. Then you're planning to...

  21. LTC Residents and Workers Face Tragedy

    cyc0sys replied to J.Adderton's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm curious to know your nurse to patient ratio and your CNA to patient ratio. As well as the average pay for both

  22. Nursing as a twenty one year old hispanic male

    cyc0sys replied to gabe55605's topic in Men in Nursing

    I'm an older male nurse. My wife is Hispanic. Her family shares similar views as your family. Most of them are FOB and work in skilled trades. Her family relies a lot on 'home remedies' and...

  23. Mandatory overtime in massachusetts nursing home

    cyc0sys replied to Animal Lover01's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    That's one of those grey areas. Hospitals are regulated by the Joint Commission. LTCs are regulated at the State level. Which is why they are the Wild West of healthcare facilities. Pretty much...

  24. How do I get into a Emergency Unit as a Newly Grad LVN

    cyc0sys replied to Joaquin Fernandez's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Agreed. I'm too fat and old to play that game. Plus, I've survived all of my chopper rides to date. May the Airborne Gods smile upon all your

  25. Scope of Practice Florida

    cyc0sys replied to HSLPN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Maybe it's a company policy. But it has nothing to do with your scope of practice in FL. Not sure why you didn't learn how to draw blood and start IVs in nursing school. Granted, you have to be...
