    MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    Emergent replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    If the country was more Libertarian, we wouldn't have a police State happening in inner cities. Most of this stuff happens over trying to stamp out drug use by people who want to voluntarily get high...

    MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    Emergent replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    I just want to say that I so admire Oprah Winfrey. She's so articulate, I'm a huge fan of hers. And Prince Harry was so lucky to marry Meghan, don't you think? How do you like my BLM T-shirt?...

    Husband Died—Looking For Low Stress Job Recommendations

    Emergent replied to Midlife452's topic in General Nursing

    You definitely need time. I speak from the experience of having been widowed at age 40. In my case I had a 3 yr old and toddler, plus older kids, which although that is a heavy load, it's also a...

    Who should decide?

    Emergent replied to PPediRN's topic in Nursing News

    When You Hear Hoofbeats

    Emergent replied to Dr Georgianna Donadio's topic in General Nursing

    I always find it ironic when unhealthy people argue on how to be healthy. If anyone wants tips on how to be full of physical energy, stamina, and take no daily prescribed meds, while maintaining...

    When You Hear Hoofbeats

    Emergent replied to Dr Georgianna Donadio's topic in General Nursing

    OP, good call. There's not enough attention to things absorbed through the skin of seemingly ordinary products and substances. Often those things disrupt hormones or other functions in the body....

    service animal in a high school

    Emergent replied to Kristen D's topic in School

    Fortunately these service dog abuses seem to have simmered down somewhat. I'm not seeing as many phony service dogs around town anymore. As far as an emotional support dog, I think that's why...

    National Blah Blah Blah Day

    Emergent replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    I think the point of the dream was assertiveness, something that I have made big strides in, in the last 10 years. It came very naturally to me in the dream. I was assertive but didn't get...

    National Blah Blah Blah Day

    Emergent replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    I have been having excellent sleep the last month and catching up on some dreaming. I was having a lot of fractured sleep last year, probably partially because I was drinking too much alcohol, I had a...

    National Blah Blah Blah Day

    Emergent replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Last night I had a vivid dream that I was working in a nursing unit, and I was having some sort of bladder problem and dribbling pee on the floor. I don't have any bladder problem in real life by the...

    Taking a break? How long until you came back?

    Emergent replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    I think the site has definitely improved the last few years. It appears to be run better, with less bias. There used to be something not right about all nurses years ago, from my point of view. I...

    National DNA Day

    Emergent replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Probably 95% of my ancestry is from England, Wales, Scotland. Throw in a little Dutch, German, and French. The DNA said 4% Norwegian which I'm sure is because of the Viking presence in England,...

    Medical Research: How Valid Is It?

    LOL, so sad ? What's really pathetic is lack of original thought, but just parroting ideological cliches. Especially ones that are utterly off topic to the original post. ? It's like having...
