  1. Is it fair for the media to blame the RN in Texas for contracting Ebola?

    TheGooch replied to luv2's topic in Disaster Preparation

  7. Suicide by antibotics ?

    TheGooch replied to ohmeowzer RN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    lol., Most of mine were dead before I realized they needed antibiotics. Maybe that's why I gave the hobby up. Had much better luck with

  9. Are American hospitals ready for Ebola?

    TheGooch replied to texarkana 551's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I posted an article on that in the Nursing news section but it was basically ignored so yes, it has been introduced into All Nurses. Also, like I said a couple of posts ago-how do they dispose of the...

  10. Are American hospitals ready for Ebola?

    TheGooch replied to texarkana 551's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If she took all the precautions such as wearing the protective gear how did she get it? It's not like these patients were not diagnosed with Ebola when they were treated-they

  11. Are American hospitals ready for Ebola?

    TheGooch replied to texarkana 551's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If this man dies what will they do with the body? I don't see too many funeral homes jumping at the bit to take it. And since he is in critical condition and deteriorating rapidly I see this as more...

  12. Are American hospitals ready for Ebola?

    TheGooch replied to texarkana 551's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I don't think he is a bad person at all. He risked his own life to help a pregnant woman with the disease-most people wouldn't have done that. Frightened over the potential of having contracted the...

  13. Are American hospitals ready for Ebola?

    TheGooch replied to texarkana 551's topic in Disaster Preparation

    TheGooch replied to HappyWife77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    he was showing symptoms when he went to the er on 9-24 but no tests were done. he went back on 9-26 and that's when they did the test. So how many people were exposed to it in those two

  15. Ebola here in Dallas USA

    TheGooch replied to HappyWife77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    How do they dispose of the waste products from these patients? The waste removal services for Emory at first refused to. And when they have up top 40 bags a day of human waste just sitting around...

  17. Disabled seems to have some new meaning!

    TheGooch replied to suanna's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's called having an opinion. And yes, I do consider it harassment. Maybe you ought to walk in the footsteps of those who are not visually disabled and have to live through cops harassing you because...

  18. Disabled seems to have some new meaning!

    TheGooch replied to suanna's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Sorry but I respectfully disagree. As long as the placard was properly placed on the car as it should be he had no right going up and asking her if she was the disabled one. He only did it because she...

  19. Should male nurses put the toilet seat down?

    TheGooch replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Kind of an age old question-to put the seat down or not. Personally, as a woman I do appreciate it when a man puts the seat back down after

  20. Disabled seems to have some new meaning!

    TheGooch replied to suanna's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have another neighbor who has a 19 year old son with a chromosome defect. She has been fighting for some time to receive benefits for him. He can't drive and probably can't work and probably will be...

  21. Disabled seems to have some new meaning!

    TheGooch replied to suanna's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's none of his damn business why you have the placard. You applied and was approved for it. I would have gotten his name and badge number and reported him for harassing the

  22. Disabled seems to have some new meaning!

    TheGooch replied to suanna's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Just today our local news station ran a story about a disabled veteran who was upset over a mail carrier parking in a handicap space. I got the point of why he was upset-the space is for the disabled....

    The SSDI trust fund is set to go broke in

  24. Disabled seems to have some new meaning!

    TheGooch replied to suanna's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have 2 neighbors that are on SSDI or trying to get it. One has mental illness, Fibro and asthma. She is the one receiving it. She also is on a CPAP machine. With all her breathing problems she's...

  25. under-aged partners rooming in

    TheGooch replied to bojo328's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Why she couldn't wait until he was 18 is beyond me but maybe she's read that garbage about males reaching their sexual peak at 17 and wanted to see if it was true. Either way it's illegal and she...
