    Drunk and high students at clinical

    OrganizedChaos replied to PerkyNurse55's topic in General Students

    I wouldn't message the dean now because it will look bad on you since you did nothing about it at the time. Next semester if you notice students are under the influence you need to speak up then. It...

    My patient dropped her baby!

    OrganizedChaos replied to perfexion's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Well I guess I expect it out of patients to place blame on us instead of stepping up accepting responsibility. The mother was fine at first but as soon as the preverbal poo hit the fan, the mother...

    Has Anyone completed DLSI-RN program

    OrganizedChaos replied to mzmartin2007's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I believe DLSI is just a publishing company much like Rue or The College Network. I don't believe they are affiliated with any school. Someone can correct me if I'm

    OrganizedChaos replied to perfexion's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yeah, that wasn't the first thing that popped into my head. But I guess I'm just as naive as you. But why would the husband blame his wife? Of corse they're gonna blame the

    Questions for LVNs/LPNs for a project

    OrganizedChaos replied to sabrina.'s topic in General Nursing

    I'm sure your teacher wants you to interview someone in person, not over the internet. Even though this site is called AllNurses, it is a public site & anyone can sign up. You don't know who you...

    Accidents happen. Maybe the morphine just hit her after you left & she got tired. But what happened to the daughter? Was the older daughter there the whole time? Why was she not able to come get...

    My brother. who is a mechanic, told me he worked on a customers car & the customers name was La-Ah. It must be quite a popular name & I just don't know

    What do you say to people thinking about nursing?

    OrganizedChaos replied to jeyre1847's topic in General Nursing

    He kinda sounds like my best friend who had a prior bachelor's degree, then went & got her second bachelor's in nursing. She whined the whole time she was in school, after school & then put...

    LPN vs MA

    OrganizedChaos replied to Parakeet's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Yes LVNs can draw blood & work in hospitals. It depends where you work but in my area they still hire LVNs in hospitals. Some hospitals don't hire LVNs any more, some do. Do a search of hospitals...

    Difficult family member

    OrganizedChaos replied to darkbeauty's topic in Private Duty

    That is very true. I would call APS as well as getting out of there. The daughter will point the finger at the nurses for making her father sick or killing her father. Run far & run

    Difficult family member

    OrganizedChaos replied to darkbeauty's topic in Private Duty

    You might have to call Adult Protective Services & even though she's the POA, she's causing him harm & he needs his medications. I think at this point you really need to call APS (or what you...

    Curious to know why Jahi thread was closed?

    OrganizedChaos replied to RNIBCLC's topic in Nursing News

    Probably because Dolan was trying to remove the $250K malpractice cap. But it didn't happen so they are probably figuring out their next

    Why in the world would you go lvn route???!!!??!

    OrganizedChaos replied to Jen_Loves_Nursing's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I became an LVN first because I wasn't sure nursing was for me. I'm happy I became an LVN first, especially with how I job hopped & didn't stay any where for a year. But I learned a lot in my four...

    Test Banks = Academic Dishonesty???

    OrganizedChaos replied to Haleiwa's topic in General Students

    If it's a student test bank & the teacher is too lazy to make up his/her own questions then it's not the students fault. It's something completely different if they got their hands on a teacher...

    OrganizedChaos replied to msdee's topic in General Students
