QuiltDog

I agree with this. Very expensive, but I had a pair last for over a year working at an inpatient hospice unit. I have large and wide feet and these were so comfortable!!

I love quilting and dogs!

I wear parabens when parasailing

No, no, not at all

I work for a large non-profit in Ohio and we use Suncoast also. I agree it takes a little getting used to but it is pretty decent

You beat me to it. I am guessing a laundress is a chick who does laundry while sporting long, flowing, well-oiled locks of hair

I agree with the previous posts regarding home care. I did home hospice for a while and I feel you need good experience prior to entering this field. You encounter so many medical issues, not just related to the terminal dx. You are on your own, with no one to grab for help.

But the spit was from Roger McDowell (supposedly)

Lots of it apparently

Why is Kenny Rogers chicken so good? You guessed it...parabens!!

I think Mulva wore a lot of parabens

Who told you to put the parabens on? Did I tell you to put the parabens on? Do you even know what a pareben is?

I have found that hospice nursing draws on all of my nursing experiences. Do not mistake comfort care with no care or easy care. In my 11+ years of hospice nursing, I have done a wide variety of procedures and cared for a wide variety of diagnoses. I do not think working for hospice would be an impediment to returning to acute care. By the way, I also went from ED to hospice. Lasted only a few months in ED, 11 years in hospice!

I am not proud of mine either [emoji15]

Not real clear what this is about....

Good call!

That's a lot of hatin!!

My agency has 2 IPUs. The one I work in is pretty consistently full (40 beds). Our other unit runs pretty full as well. I am not sure why such a difference in what everyone else is reporting. We also have a dedicated continuous care team

You came here looking for opinions and you have received some very good advice. Even if you do not like what was said, take it to heart and learn from it. I have been a nurse for 29 years with the last 11 years in hospice, so I have some experience with pain management Many in the health care arena still do not know how to adequately treat pain, whether due to ignorance or fear, or who knows why. Use this as a catalyst to learn more about the principles of pain management. Your patients will greatly benefit

I agree with you both on the Reglan. Had IV Reglan and did not enjoy the sensation at all. I list that as an intolerance when at a provider.

That is a pretty large dose!!

There is no entirely online entry level RN program. All programs will have clinical, or hands on, hours associated with them For example, I achieved my RN from a community college with a classroom and clinical component. Fast forward many years, and I am going for my BSN via on online program I hope this makes sense! Good luck to you

I agree with your corollary 100%!!!! I feel the same way and have seen it many times

Haha I was thinking the same thing! Mixing metaphors!

When I did home hospice (now in an inpatient hospice unit), I probably had one blood draw and one IV start in about 3 years. We always had a nurse on our team that was proficient at this so we could use her as a resource.
