    hikernurse replied to nursiemellie's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    hikernurse replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Tweety, I bet you're good at charging (and the hours sound great), but it's a loss to not have you with students. You sound like the perfect preceptor :) ER--maybe you could get your grandbabies mini...

    Hey, y'all. Angie, last time I made meat loaf I put shredded potatoes in it (not a whole lot, just some I had left over from something else) and that turned out pretty good. BBQ sounds good, too . ....

  14. Pregnant while in nursing school??

    hikernurse replied to crissy2629's topic in General Nursing

    :yeahthat: I'm always too sick and my pregnancies too high risk to want to have a baby in school, but some gals sail right through and there's always the option of deferring if you need to. The...

  19. Low Census....again!

    hikernurse replied to SouthernBelleinsocal's topic in General Nursing

    I'm home today due to low census, actually. All the nurses in our unit take turns. Whoever was called off last, won't be called off until their turn. It's not entirely "fair" since more call-offs...
