  1. Boyfriend of a Nursing Student

    Dogen replied to AZStudent01's topic in General Students

    Not to mention you might learn a thing or two. I'm constantly amazed how many people don't even know the rough geography of female genitals - men and women. I mean, you don't necessarily need to know...

    Well this thread got weird all of a

  3. Guess I should change my name now.

    Dogen replied to pixiestudent2's topic in General Nursing

    What can I say? I give really good advice. ORnursesaregreat... we could call you ORNAG. That sounds sexy

  4. An Atheist Nurse in King James Hospital

    Dogen replied to EMSnurse411's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I don't think anyone has implied it would hurt. I'm comfortable with other people's religion (two of my three hospitals have been religious, the first had nuns), I just don't speak the language. So,...

  5. An Atheist Nurse in King James Hospital

    Dogen replied to EMSnurse411's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I clicked because of the allusion to "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court." I stayed because I've had this problem. I live in a secular region, but work at an extremely religious organization....

  6. Guess I should change my name now.

    Dogen replied to pixiestudent2's topic in General Nursing

    1. Congrats on getting into an OR residency. Out here those are harder to get than ICU/ED. Tell everyone. 2. Oh snap! I decided to make my OKC name the different one... I guess that shows which one I...

  7. Tough point in my life

    Dogen replied to BearFeet's topic in General Nursing

    You haven't posted since this morning, so I'll hope you're still reading. Some of the above are good advice. Find a psychiatrist or psych NP who's on your insurance and make an appointment....

  8. PLEASE help! What are my options???

    Dogen replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  9. PLEASE help! What are my options???

    Dogen replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are 10,000 ways to become a nurse or an NP. One of the most annoying things about it, IMNSHO. I like the idea of requiring clinical experience as an RN before becoming an NP... I'm doing my NP...

  10. 8/22 What I learned this week....

    Dogen replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Amen. I'm the first one they call off if no one asks (policy can bite me). I have 6 hours this pay period. Lots of time to spend on AN,

  11. PLEASE help! What are my options???

    Dogen replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My bank offers personal loans at 3%... up to $5,000. Wells Fargo offers third party student loans starting at like 3.6%... with a variable APR... and that's just the teaser rate for people with an 850...

  12. PLEASE help! What are my options???

    Dogen replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not so much difficult as expensive. Sallie Mae and Wells Fargo would looooove to help you out. For 12% APR. Whoops, I'm part of the 10% that's not supposed to be in this

  13. Managing CNA's/Aides/Med Techs as New Nurse?

    Dogen replied to hollyspiller0253's topic in General Nursing

    This is great advice for everything you ever do, and something people frequently forget in the

  14. Guess I should change my name now.

    Dogen replied to pixiestudent2's topic in General Nursing

    Congrats! You made it. Enjoy not having to study for a while. If I may, spend a week reconnecting with loved ones who supported you. And Netflix. Have you started job hunting, or were you one of the...

    Dogen replied to Farawyn's topic in General Nursing

    Did yours constantly tell you that you weren't logged in? Mine does that, but then I switch to participated and back to inbox and it shows me my PMs.

  16. colleague does not want to take day off

    Dogen replied to bellefleur's topic in General Nursing

    Aww, you didn't even hold it against me that auto correct wrote with instead of without regard.

  17. colleague does not want to take day off

    Dogen replied to bellefleur's topic in General Nursing

    Being able to work seven days a week and being in a good mood isn't evidence of mania. Period. Not sleeping for three days in a row, or sleeping two hours a night and not feeling tired could be....

  18. Nurses and their pens

    Dogen replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    I don't chart with a pencil. I use the pencil for the notes in my pocket (which is strictly VS and labs; I don't even carry brains). Everything legal gets done on the

  19. colleague does not want to take day off

    Dogen replied to bellefleur's topic in General Nursing

    My first draft of that post included the word syllogism, and I'm glad someone noticed.

  20. colleague does not want to take day off

    Dogen replied to bellefleur's topic in General Nursing

    But working a lot, by itself, doesn't imply a drug addiction. It's true that some people with a drug addiction work a lot, but not true that all people who work a lot have a drug addiction. Like a...

  23. How to deter when asked personal questions by patients?

    Dogen replied to nianavaRN's topic in General Nursing

    I tell all my patients that my SO is a sharpshooter with an impressive array of weapons. Because I'm single, and I want any psychotic stalker who decides to come after me to waste time trying to track...

  24. False testimony

    Dogen replied to Jere2911's topic in General Nursing

    Let's see if I understand this. The nurse who got the order was supposed to arrange for it to be delivered so it could be given in the morning, and because that didn't happen it wasn't there for you...
