    50% of fatalities in nursing homes in some States

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Fortunately, I never bought into the whole inheritance thing. It got so tiresome, in addition to the other dysfunction, that I just went my own way and emotionally let go of the ideal that I had of...

    50% of fatalities in nursing homes in some States

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There are some parents who are abusive to their offspring. Sometimes it is important for adult children to distance themselves from their parents. My father was one of those. Basically, he was...

    Would you "adopt" a nurse or allow yourself to be "adopted" (For Nurses' Week)?

    Emergent replied to Sour Lemon's topic in General Nursing

    @Sour Lemon Well, I think it's sappy and a bit patronizing. They should make gift cards for all the people who are suffering economically with this

    FT staff floating to COVID units and then back to dementia unit

    Emergent replied to Mayday83's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm sorry that the dementia patients might be at risk. These are uncertain times that are challenging many people. On the brighter side; at least they aren't fully aware of these

    Will Covid cause huge transfer of wealth out of hands of middle class?

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This isn't really a political post oh, it's a post about the economic impact of covid-19. One thing I have to say is, the American propensity to be in debt is going to hurt many people. I'm glad I've...

    Will working with masks become permanent?

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I went to the supermarket the other day. All the workers are wearing masks, but I was one of the few customers wearing one. I made a couple while I was in self quarantine after my covid-19

    Should factories continue making ventilators?

    Emergent replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I thought that the new protocols contraindicate widespread use of ventilators for this virus. The statistics point to the fact that approximately 90% of those with covid-19 put on a ventilator die...

    Sainthood for going to NYC

    Emergent posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    I notice that nurses going on assignments to NYC imply they are altruistic heros, going to the frontline to help. I did a Covid crisis job, and I did it for the money, primarily. I get it, the...

    Why not quarantine McDonald's and ban soda pop?

    Emergent posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    With all this talk about the Coronavirus, and all the risks to the vulnerable population, why aren't we banning junk food and soda pop? We are severely impacting our economy because of this concerning...

    DCFS opinions?

    Emergent replied to Rasberry_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    An isolated moment of carelessness does not necessarily mean neglect. Let's say this was a car accident or a near-drowning where the parent should have been more vigilant or careful, but wasn't. Mom...

    That is an interesting thought. I'd like to see some honest studies about that. Of course, some will come here and accuse you of not caring about the vulnerable, even though what you say is probably...

    VP Mike Pence visiting Mayo Clinic - Not Wearing a Mask

    Emergent replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Did anyone ask him about it? I saw the headline on a news site, but I guess it wasn't interesting enough for me to read article. It seems disrespectful of him to not wear a mask, even if he is...
