    Hospitals in Phoenix, San Diego and Denver! HELP

    Emergent replied to Madeline Connors's topic in General Nursing

    A diploma degree is probably a no go in California. I'll bet Denver is a good choice. Phoenix is awfully hot in the Summer. I hear the climate in Denver is great. It's a mild 4 seasons one, according...

    allnurses' netiquette

    Emergent replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    People speak their minds too bluntly online, and other people like to jump all over it because it's fun to bash people. I've seen lots of Internet bullies on this site. Often there is not a lot...

    Doc Won't See Me Because I Treat Covid Patients

    Emergent replied to bitter_betsy's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There are covid+ people everywhere. The eye Dr office has a weak grasp of epidemiology. So ridiculous. More likely to get it using the credit card keypad at the supermarket. In my neck of the...

    Dealing With Noncompliant Patient, "Cherubs on My Coffin!": Nurse in Action

    Emergent replied to spotangel's topic in General Nursing

    In my calloused opinion, our healthcare system throws way too many resources at self destructive people like this patient. Hardworking people get to pay the bills. It's a

    Diluting pain medication?

    Emergent replied to coffeeandvendingmachines's topic in Patient Medications

    Either/or is fine. I usually don't, mainly to avoid the extra step. Sometimes will, to give more gently to a more sensitive

    Scab nursing?

    Emergent posted a topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    What do you think of crossing a picket line as an agency nurse? The facility would be suffering financially by paying an arm and a leg for staff, instead of negotiating a compromise. Are the nurses...

    Attending nursing school without an MMR due to autoimmune disability

    Emergent replied to Thomas Murray's topic in General Nursing

    It's my personal opinion that if someone has an autoimmune disorder, they should work outdoors, away from chemicals and toxins. Their immune systems just don't function properly. A lot of those...

    Nurses make me sick

    Emergent replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    Funny story: in December I was walking to my vehicle after my shift, mask off. My fellow baby boomer coworker was driving away, and she lowered the window of her car. I mentioned that I was...

    Attending nursing school without an MMR due to autoimmune disability

    Emergent replied to Thomas Murray's topic in General Nursing

    First of all, you shouldn't be putting your name and phone number online like this. Also, your daughter should be doing her own research. I'm a firm believer in teaching our children to stand...

    Big LOL. The Millenials have been so brainwashed as to their own specialness, and to never, never, never question the wisdom of bureaucratic

    Coworkers Going Out During Pandemic, Hospital Admin Hypocrisy...

    Emergent replied to chachanurse101's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Outgoing people are suffering a great deal under these restrictions. If what they're doing is bothering you, unfollow them on facebook and other social media and mind your own business. Otherwise you...

    facebook Group for State Nurses

    Emergent replied to ThatBLURN's topic in General Nursing

    The problem with facebook is that it does not allow one to remain anonymous. I am a member of the nurses with cards page. The problem with that one is there are just too many responses to topics....

    Public Reprimand.. implications?

    Emergent replied to ALnurse85's topic in Patient Medications

    It is disgusting that this daughter pursued this so vigorously. It's amazing what people will do in the middle of a national crisis of pandemic proportions. She proactively decided to add to...

    COVID Misinformation/Ignorance

    Emergent replied to GS ED RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    So Sick Of Rudeness At Work

    Emergent replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Nursing

    I have found that the best response to rudeness from coworkers should be done in the moment. You can calmly and gently request that they rephrase that. You can say that you don't like to be talked to...

    Struggling with time management - what am I missing?

    Emergent replied to NewGradNurse3's topic in General Nursing

    Learn to quickly knock off the silly, desk jockey driven nonsensical charting ASAP in your shift. Just click the necessary boxes and move on. You do not have to dwell on that stuff at all. Then you...

    Huge Zoom Mistake....Nurse Instructors Caught!

    Emergent replied to Pre.Nurse_tobe's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sure mainstream media would have a field day with that. I totally agree with your post. A lawsuit would really have a negative impact on that
