    I like the National Science Foundation's definition of STEM: fundamental sciences....but not applied sciences. So, based on that, I wouldn't say that nursing fell under the category of STEM....

    I'm sorry OP, but I'm gonna plead ignorance here! I am not catholic, but I did work at a "catholic" hospital, and I never heard that birth control such as IUDs were against "the rules" Does the...

    Navy Corpsmen Caught

    I had this same question, HermioneG. I haven't been able to find actual video of the girl "making the baby dance to rap music" to be able to tell if she was handling the baby carefully or not....

    What is your Nursing Super Power?

    I'm just picturing you sitting at the desk, charting. Then, suddenly, you perk up - look around - sniff sniff. Your eyes squint as you look around suspiciously. Somebody on this floor has a bladder...

    What is your Nursing Super Power?

    One of my hopes is that someday I will be able to be a foster parent to medically fragile kids. I haven't yet because I am single and live alone and, well, I have to go to work. I hope someday that...

    Other nurses being abusive against other nurses.

    I think this thread may have run its course....OP has stated that they are "over and out" and I don't think anything else productive is gonna come out of this... :/ I hope one of the mods will come...

    Other nurses being abusive against other nurses.

    Graduate RN with BSN

    Remember that new grad residencies tend to start only once or twice a year. You may not be hearing back because the next residency program doesn't start until January (after the next class of...

    Other nurses being abusive against other nurses.

    I wanted to add, for any readers out there that are affected by mental health issues that are disrupting their ability to work - you may be eligible for FMLA or even protected under the ADA in some...

    Other nurses being abusive against other nurses.

    Not only that, but "mental health issues" are not something that can just be put down and left at the door when its convenient. If they could be, nobody would ever pick them back up. Maybe you can...

    Other nurses being abusive against other nurses.

    What is your Nursing Super Power?

    I've been thinking about this for a couple of days, and I guess mine might be that I have been told I am part social worker. I am more than willing to take the patients whose parents are drug users...
