    Mandatory Staff Pictures In Patient Rooms

    Emergent replied to ClassOf2004's topic in General Nursing

    Another example of an idiotic idea cooked up after multiple meetings by otherwise useless people who take off their masks most of the day in the comfort of their offices. Signed- Looking Forward...

    Cause of Death: Old Age

    Emergent replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Taped by a patient

    Emergent replied to lauriepanther's topic in General Nursing

    LOL, the word 'taped' is so 20th century. Even I don't use it anymore

    I'm a new employee, how do I deal with a passive aggressive coworker?

    Emergent replied to cookie123d's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You can always, with a total lack of emotion in your voice other than amazement, ask something like "Are you mocking my manner of speaking?" What are they going to say said to that?"Yes!"?...

    I am a short and sweet poster. I have a short attention span, so I don't read some very eloquent posters like JKB. She's too detailed for me. Get to point in the first paragraph, you can...

    Intubation Should Be A Nursing Skill, Especially Now

    Emergent replied to ErikWeeWoo's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This is in the realm of our RT brothers and sisters. They did this where I previously worked. Where I am now, this is within the domain of the CRNAs. They are always on call at our critical access...

    Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Emergent replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    Coping with the Death of a Fellow Nurse

    Emergent replied to Nurse-please's topic in General Nursing

    I might shed a tear or two over a coworker's illness and death. But I definitely wouldn't have a problem coping. Work relationships don't carry over too much into my personal life. I thought I...

    Back pain... the abysmal side effect of nursing

    Emergent replied to NickiLaughs's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Stay in shape, not only a healthy weight but staying limber and strong. Modern society produces flabby, out of shape people because of labor-saving luxuries. Also, our success with food...

    Emergent replied to jlv613's topic in Disaster Preparation

    OTC pain meds are probably the most abused drugs in America. They interfere with normal bodily response to illness, and strain vital organs such as stomach, kidneys, liver. It took at least a...

    COVID Immunized Guilt

    Emergent replied to TravelNurseLady's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm being vaccinated solely to help with herd immunity, and hopefully delay the economic and societal collapse of the First World in my lifetime. I'm no conspiracy theorist, but in my state half...

    Emergent replied to Guest 1152923's topic in General Nursing

    Covid causing increased AMS in dementia patients

    Emergent replied to NewRN'16's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Maybe Mother Nature is trying to tell us something. As far as PPE, washable gowns are the solution that my hospital has used. CAPRs, hand washing, carefully storing N95s have worked for

    Hospitals in Phoenix, San Diego and Denver! HELP

    Emergent replied to Madeline Connors's topic in General Nursing

    If you love the heat I'm sure there's something in Phoenix for you. San Diego is not a hot place because it's right on a large Bay and gets a lot of Pacific influence in the Summer. I don't know any...
