    Risk of getting your family members sick?

    "just" a school nurse rant

    OrganizedChaos replied to LikeTheDeadSea's topic in School

    You're never "just" an anything. You're never just a school nurse, psych nurse, LTC nurse, LVN or what have you. I don't think lay people realize we all go through the same schooling & can pick...

    Should I take a year off after graduating?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Jayhaydee's topic in Nursing Career

    There is no shortage of new grads so if you delay looking for a job you will be putting yourself at a disadvantage. There will be tons of new grads & you will be considered an "old" new grad. Why...

    Please help me! I really need good sound advice...

    OrganizedChaos replied to PammmIam's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I don't know where you went but they got you hook, line & sinker. MAs & LVNs are completely different from each other. MAs follow the medical model of care & LVNs follow the nursing model...

    All reputable nursing programs teach you what you need to know. The ones that cost that much are just ripping you

    Unprofessional to mention you have other patients?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    It's fine to mention you have other patients. But to wave meds or whathaveyou in their face like "See, see, see! You're not my only patient." is very rude &

    What do I do now.

    OrganizedChaos replied to MissouriRN13's topic in General Nursing

    No one is treating you badly. You came to an online forum to get opinions from people. Everyone has their own opinion that you won't necessarily agree with & you can't control the responses you...

    OrganizedChaos replied to MissouriRN13's topic in General Nursing

    I'm spiritual & everything but God can't protect you from what will happen. If your former workplace wants you to lose your license, they will make it so. You *need* to get a lawyer! You didn't...

    PSA

    OrganizedChaos replied to mmc51264's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe that's why I felt so sick when I was on Flagyl. I mean super sick to my stomach. I just thought it was the Flagyl for some weird reason. I was going to make an appointment to see my OBGYN but he...

    Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    OrganizedChaos replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    No, I won't agree that the patient/family is like that because *nowhere* in any of the OP's posts has he ever alluded to that. You are assuming waaaaaay to much. I worked in nursing homes & I know...

    I believe the OP is going to college right out of high school & still lives with her parents. I don't know if she will continue to live with her parents after graduation or will live on her own. I...

    Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    OrganizedChaos replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    Have you read his posts at all? He said the family was *never* an issue. He stated they were always nice to him & involved in the patient's care. They never flipped out on Jen & thought her...

    Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    But you can do hers. You did state before that you had to "hunt her down". Which is why some of us are dubious of your story & believe you should've just passed the meds you had in your possession...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    1. There was no reason to even discuss anything about wrapping the patient's Aiv awhile she was on a break, it wasn't an emergency so it could've waited until she was done. 3. Yes it was ultimately...

    If you are still a student nurse I wouldn't suggest the OP to take on that much of a loan. $50K for an ADN or BSN is just downright ridiculous! Do you know how much she will be making right out of...

    But the OP has clearly stated that the family & patient were never rude to *him*. The only person he mentions that was rude to him was Jen. So you are indeed going off

    You continue to go off topic when you bring up unhappy/unruly families/patients. Clearly that wasn't what the OP delt
