    A Headache is not an emergency

    I could see most people getting upset. But I just wanted an answer for my ear pain. If that meant pain pills, antibiotics or nothing I just wanted an answer because the pain was so

    A Headache is not an emergency

    I know they don't remove cysts in the ER, but if the OR could take walk ins I would've gone straight in. [emoji6] They have a fast track at the ER but since it was 11 at night they just took me back...

    A Headache is not an emergency

    I have gone to the same ER when I had an ovarian cyst, was in so much pain I could barely walk but the cyst didn't rupture & was slightly too small to take out. I was discharged with nothing, not...

    A Headache is not an emergency

    I never knew there were rules to use the ER. If you don't like your job, I'm sorry & maybe you should look into a different one. When I went the other night there wasn't anyone in the ER & I...

    Sorry, bad wording on my part. That's what you get when you type after taking your

    A Headache is not an emergency

    Then wait how long until I finally get seen? There aren't multiple doctors at my PCP. There is 1 NP or PA there so the next opening isn't for a little while. So no, I wouldn't be able to see my PCP on...

    A Headache is not an emergency

    I use to think that way but now that I have Medicaid & the walk in clinic in my town doesn't take it, what am I suppose to do? Drive 2 hours out of my way to a walk in clinic that takes Medicaid?...

    Dating Coworkers

    This. Be adults about it. Don't bring drama or PDA to work. As long as you can do that, I don't see why you couldn't date a coworker. If you or the other person can't, then don't do it. Because it...

    Stanford Rape

    Just women? So it's ok for men to live like animals but us women have to cover up & be angels? Double standard, don't you

    Going to be fired?

    I wouldn't keep drinking. I would be sober & have a clear head when work

    Going to be fired?

    What is getting under a lot of nurses skin is the fact that you are *not* a nurse but acting like one. It's great that you care for people, but until you have a license & worked as one you have no...

    Going to be fired?

    Obviously you cannot think critically because if you did you would know it is not smart to work for free. I hope you have malpractice insurance & up to

    Going to be fired?

    I don't know any SNF that gives more orientation than you got. Any nursing home I worked in I never got 2 weeks orientation! If you asked for more, they might look at as incompetent. Especially since...

    Going to be fired?

    Not necessarily. They could just not have talked about you yet. You need to grow up, realize you made a lot of vital mistakes & take responsibility for them. I have a hard time believing you are...

    Stanford Rape

    The whole thing is disgusting. The fact that rapist never took fully took blame & tried to place it on everyone & thing is sickening. But reading the letters from his parents it shows that the...

    6/11 WILTW Unsupervised Chalk Use

    I learned that I hate being Bipolar. I feel like I'm missing out on important things in my son's life because of my depression. I hate it. Also, we aren't out of the clear quite yet. My husband...
