    Dying And Disputing Covid While Seeking Treatment from

    I don't think we have much evolution these days. In fact, the medical system contributes to the degradation of the human gene pool. You basically have more functional people having smaller families...

    Yes, sociopathy is a brain disorder. Or, perhaps a normal variation in human brain activity. It is one that can put someone into criminal activity, but some sociopaths just slide through life living...

    Emergent replied to guest1163268's topic in Disaster Preparation

    People make their choices and live with the consequences. If a person has a stubborn personality they are going to show it. This is nothing new, we've had people who can't control their eating habits,...

    Emergent replied to FSZ Student Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not a germaphobe, and I do think germaphobes are a little extreme sometimes. But, if doing these rituals helps you feel more comfortable, it's not like it's going to hurt anybody unless you are...

    Emergent posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have an idea, let's treat our core staff like crap, let's put up with our laziest staff members, let's drive hard-working people away, then we can hire high-priced agency nurses, that should solve...

    Lost Item

    Emergent replied to FalconFlight's topic in General Nursing

    I think you're being superstitious. You probably lost it because you had a lot on your mind. I used to wear my nursing pin to one job that I had, and I left it on top of my car or it fell off in the...

    Emergent replied to daisychains11's topic in General Nursing

    You have to be tough to be in nursing. It's a rough profession with a lot of rough people. It's high pressure, and you definitely can't survive if you aren't a little

    You Pollyannas are putting a damper on this thread. Seriously, is this the time and place to toot your own horn about your holiness and the healthcare system in your country of origin? Don't you...

    Should I go onto become a nurse practitioner? Nurse bullying, life stress, and chronic health issues

    Emergent replied to daisychains11's topic in General Nursing

    If you want to stay in the healthcare business, at least you would have more status and pay. But I'm sure you would be ground into the dirt just like being a bedside nurse. If I were younger I would...

    Feeling Guilty About Nurse Burn Out
