    Teaching project on discharge for preterm infant parents

    Julius Seizure replied to afac1986's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I think your topic is a little vague (early vs. late preterm, as many have pointed out, is very different). I think you need to narrow it and work from there. Late preterm would be easier and would...

    Nurses with children always go home early?

    Julius Seizure replied to Agatha12's topic in General Nursing

    It's easy to say "won't happen again" when the next time is fully a year away. If the manager actually meant that, the manager would fix this years

    Nurses with children always go home early?

    Julius Seizure replied to Agatha12's topic in General Nursing

    I think you have hit upon a key point. Its wonderful to be kind and help your coworkers out. Its another thing for it to simply be expected of you without your

    Nurses with children always go home early?

    Julius Seizure replied to Agatha12's topic in General Nursing

    Pretty much everyone has family of some kind, whether it be offspring or otherwise. Obviously if there is an emergency with your children, most people understand that you need to attend to that. But...

    Can I wear long press on nails if I wear gloves during my whole shift?

    Julius Seizure replied to Cxrleen's topic in General Students

    Unfortunately, this probably would have just led to responses saying that "you're only 15, just focus on finishing high school for now." There are always gonna be some helpful comments (like you!)...

    Parenting is absolutely one of the hardest and most exhausting and most important jobs that there is! However, OP has not currently decided to take that job upon themselves. When/if OP does decide...

    My Daughter is Interested in Nursing

    Julius Seizure replied to Kamilah Coney's topic in General Students

    I can't tell if this is humor or not, but I think so? Anyway, I wish you luck. I'm sure your daughter will let you know how much she wants to learn and tell you (whether in words or action) if its to...

    Julius Seizure replied to Agatha12's topic in General Nursing

    This doesn't seem like a fair argument. That single person might have five dogs to feed and provide vet care for. They might have family members to support or even just to buy gifts for. They might...

    Dialysis catheter

    Julius Seizure replied to Pharmahaulic's topic in General Nursing

    I think other posters have given really good answers. Now, who do I speak to about renaming this blood vessel the "jugulag vein"? I love it so

    I failed out of nursing school midway, now what?

    Julius Seizure replied to Jkliu888's topic in General Students

    As much as I hate the term "special snowflakes", this is good advice. In general, you've got to take care of yourself - very rarely will somebody go out of their way to assist on their own accord....

    Real Dumb Question re: Infant Vital Signs

    Julius Seizure replied to blondy2061h's topic in General Nursing

    It seems like if the visits to teach her would be approved, then the DME that was needed would also be approved. That way she could get the exact equipment that they recommend she use. I wonder if...

    Julius Seizure replied to Cxrleen's topic in General Students

    For all anyone knows, this is a high school student that hasn't had any exposure to hospital nursing and hasn't even started pre-req classes. Calling it a dumb question or saying that it can't...

    Julius Seizure replied to BMitchellRN's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Yes we have had that with a few patients as well, but one dad didn't know how much the mom usually put in the diffuser, so he poured in about half a bottle of the oil and stank up the entire unit with...
