BON job is to ensure patient safety. With substance abuse (drugs or alcohol) BON is in their right to disclipline however they see fit. At one time nurses did not have any options except to lose their license. Now they promote rehab. You would ac...

You need a BSN. It is competitive to get selected into CRNA program. School runs $50,000 - $100,000 for tuition, books, fees and other required items. Cost depends on which school. I'm sure that the Nursing profession still has more female then ...

Nursing used to be about caring for the patient. Today, got to get that paperwork done! 12-14 minutes, that is about par at the hospital where I work. Emphasis is put on the proper paperwork. Don't do the paperwork, administration crawls up your ...

Whoever told you that your DUI would not be a problem is misinformed. You might have a 50/50 chance that they will send you to rehab and then let you apply for a license. But you will not find out until you do actually apply for a license.

We do not need univeral healthcare. Canada's system is going to implode on itself. http://www.google.com/hostednews/canadianpress/article/ALeqM5jbjzPEY0Y3bvRD335rGu_Z3KXoQw I have insurance and I see any physician I want. I do not wait weeks or e...

Ask for mercy from your BON and do what they require to put your license back in good standing.

Difference between the countries "The United States Constitution." Everyone here has the opportunity to improve their life. Yes, it can be difficult, it can be done. I do not have a problem assisting those in need. I do draw the line with my hard...

It's stupid and not a bit humorous. Some will actual believe this crap. Pitiful!

I find it to be outrageous that Hospice has a policy not to suction a patient if needed. What happened to dying with dignity and peacefully.

A recent study stated they do not have any benefits.

The two are apples and oranges. Both excellent areas to work. If you want to apply to CRNA school I suggest the ICU areas. Intensive Care is required, OR experience is not.

Yes it matters. Some require more education and clinicals. Some can perform procedures that others cannot. Some can supervise and some cannot. There is a difference between doctors. They have different levels and types of specialities.

Yes, a blanket policy is correct. You are lucky that you did not hurt someone else. You say you had not had a drink for some time before this DUI, well if I drank 3 alcoholic drinks I would be extremely drunk. Put a little Xanax on board and you a...

If you have one drink and get into a car which you are the driver then you are DUI. You are breaking the law. What we do in our non-work environment oftentimes will determine our character. In areas of alcohol and drug use it can and usually does ...

If you are speaking about military service then you may sign for 3 years but you will be obligated for 6 years. Which means you are discharged after your 3 year contract but can be recalled for that remaining time. Example of being recalled is the ...

I understand and hear where you are coming from. It's not childbirth pain you should compare with chronic pain. Having experienced such it is something that you actually forget about when it is all said and done. I like the idea of the pain associa...

This is a very hot and debatable topic. I suppose on paper universal health care sounds good. I do not wish to have my taxes increased. I believe if people would take responsibility for themselves instead letting others do it for them this prob...

Sometimes that attractiveness can be a hinderance.

My SICU wants nothing to do with Cardiac. They feel inexperienced with matters of the heart just as CV feels out of place with traumas. SICU handles just about everything except cardiac. They get all of the traumas and surgeries, whereas CV gets t...

I live in Toney not very far from your location. I have never been pushed, spat at, and/or threatened by any bubba's or bubbettes. I thought the rural area was coming along nicely with the grocery stores, banks, and restaurants, day cares and need ...

Deliverance land? Thank you very much for the insult!

Huntsville area has a freeze. Benefits are being cut and RN's are having to take 4 hours off a month with or without pay. I will not be surprised when lays-offs occur. I do not believe any PRN employees are getting the hours either.

It is the hospital's responsibility and they are legally required to report to the BON. They most certainly will not see the "cold turkey," as treatment or let one month of professionally treatment as the answer to the problem. If she wanted to sel...

Does not matter if it is a false-positive. It was positive. Rehab facilities have heard all of the excuses for abusing drugs. They will not believe any excuse.

Not many ways needed to get the point across. If anyone receives a DUI in any profession they are "scum of the earth." Being in the Nursing profession even makes it worst for the individual's stupidity. Drive drunk and you put everyone around you ...
