THANK YOU Orca - very helpful and nice of you - i will check out the book :) thanx, rayea how do your feel about either of the certifications for correctional nurses - impressive or not so much? more importantly would they help me learn? one is aca and the other is ncchc (i think) thanks and do you love it or is it a job :)

Hi and Help Just got a job in a correctional setting (prison for women) - Please tell me everything and anything that will help me :). I have years of medical and actually worked in a "jail" for three years but I still am searching for anything that will help me. I will read stuff on this site and google but any tips would be amazing :). I am especially interested in caring for pregnant inmates as my previous experience in corrections was mostly with men. The women I worked with were great but VERY manipulative and would do anything to get a ride to the hospital so if this is the case I need to know about care of female, pregnant inmates (have had no children yet so...). THANKS for any pointers or references or anything :) rayea

hi VivaLasViejas(sorry this is blue my computer skills are not so 16 year oldish )thank you for your information - it was a while back but i always check back on things - brilliant stuff you said here and seems to help me distinguish better - thank you - just like in nursing school when you learn about a disease everybody is like omg i got it - well when i read all the psych stuff - i am still like omg i got it - guess we all have a little of everything cuz i certainly have never met someone who has it together all the time :) moderation and learn to laugh i guess - I do thank you :)r[/url]ayea (yup now it turns randomly black at the sign off hahaha) thanks now that i posted it i see it is underlined too - ha

oh Ciale i in no way was trying to judge you in ANY way - i thanked everyone for helping me. Please re read my post about the reason I stopped because of my previous experience where i backed away. That comment was about me and only me - please forgive if it sounded otherwise. :) and fyi if you are an er nurse i am jealous as i could not do it and i thank you for all the heroic things you do (not over dramatic - i mean it.)
-
You'd be surprised at how many people listen to the nonsense nurse/Mommy voice to sit and be quiet. (i love this part Esme12)sorry about your friendthank you EVERYBODY who helped me with this - i thought i was smart and i know better about the asa npo no moving etc i was just feeling helpless and that is not an excuse to be sans brain :) thank you thank you thank you :)
-
Esme12 you are amazing - I am printing this :) thank you (please forgive but he was sitting so leave him that way dont make him lie down which would be moving him, correct?)
-
thanks dolcebellaluna and Meriwhen - wouldnt the treatment (although i dont know other than behavior therapy how to help borderlines) be the same whether it is a learned behavior or from stress or actual borderline? i only like the terms because it actually helps me think that the person cant help the behavior and is not acting a certain way just to get what they want or manipulate - i think it gives me more patience
-
thank you ~*Stargazer*~ ! he was sitting up in the middle of the road cuz he had tried to get up several times before i got to him and he kept falling back so i hope you are saying just keep him in that position? and he was edgy and not sitting really still

-
