    When you're the patient...

    No. I report as much pain as I am in. They don't know I'm a nurse & I went to get help. If I'm in a lot of pain, I say so. I don't want to remain in pain. I don't feel bad for the techs &...

    Falsely accused of med diversion

    Lmao. Where did I say she was a drug addict?! I said this is why I BELIEVE she got let go. It confirms my thought with the fact that the NM didn't do anything to get the facts. After working for a lot...

    Is it ever ok?

    No, it was pretty black & white to me. The doctor was telling her the information, not the patient. Hence my

    Falsely accused of med diversion

    Well maybe she isn't decent. Because the OP was let go rather quickly & for no valid reason. That is the only thing that explains

    Need advice re: Reporting suspected drug diversion

    Don't take photos. I don't see that being legal. But definitely keep a record of all

    Seriously?? Small rant.

    I'm sure there was an RN that swung by every once & awhile & you didn't see her. The CNA has to be overseen by an

    Failed NCLEX due to anxiety! Need new review course!!

    I really agree with you. I want to like this more than

    Is it ever ok?

    Unless it pertains to what is going on with the patient medically, all personal information should be kept by the person who received

    move for job opportunities and reluctant spouse

    He still needs a reality check. If you lose your job, how are the bills gonna get paid? I was dating a guy once, we didn't have any kids, & he got PISSED at me when I got laid off from a NH. It...

    Lol calm down there feisty. She was talking to me there. It's

    Seriously?? Small rant.

    So then the CNA wasn't the school nurse. The CNA was an aide that helped out the school nurse. LVNs can't even be called the school nurse, only

    Is it ever ok?

    Of course that's not information you need to know, especially if it affects
  16. OrganizedChaos

    Seriously?? Small rant.

    Are you sure the "school nurse" was a CNA? All schools I know of have an RN as a school nurse. We had one & my graduating high school class had 20 people. Was it possible the CNA was helping the...

    School on Probationary Status

    It takes more than just one class failing the NCLEX to move the status of a nursing program to probationary. Did you not research schools before applying? If you would've looked up your current...

    move for job opportunities and reluctant spouse

    Do you have any kids? If not, you may have to take a job away from your husband & move. If he won't do anything to better his life (& yours) he needs to have a reality

    Yes they can always change their minds. Especially if there is no paperwork to seal the

    What kind of information are we talking about? Does it pertain to the patient's

    Am I wrong from refusing to help a friend?

    Did you read the OP's posts? I feel like you haven't. The OP said she helped her before but wanted more. The OP's friend was put in academic probation not once but TWICE. If the friend can't get it...

    move for job opportunities and reluctant spouse

    If he isn't willing to work more or do what it takes to pass the NCLEX, then he needs to put his grown up underwear on & deal with it. You are the main breadwinner & if you lose your job the...
  23. OrganizedChaos

    Seriously?? Small rant.

    If you are not a nurse, how do you know if it's difficult or not? By the way, nursing school isn't easy. Not LVN, bridge or straight RN. It's all difficult. Why does it matter if someone went to a...

    Falsely accused of med diversion

    I get it. But there was still an error & a flag raised by the pharmacy. Again, I said the fact that there was TWO flags raised by pharmacy is what I'm talking about. Not the errors themselves. You...

    Received 2 job offers, a conundrum

    I would definitely take the second job. I know you hate it but I would rather suck it up than take a job at a facility where the DON is terrible & you might have no support from your coworkers....
