    Is this discrimination?

    Emergent replied to eacue10's topic in General Nursing

    I think you're confusing language with race with this comment. I do believe if a person is serious about immigration to the United States, some attempt to learn English is appropriate. Of course,...

    Deciding to have a baby after ADN

    Emergent replied to ARODtheCRNA2b's topic in Nursing Career

    You have a lot of ambitious plans. Personally, I'd advise cooling your jets and slowing down. Make it through your ADN. Go ahead and have the babies. I think it's great to do that while young. You...

    We never had these in my school. It sounds like it's totally gone to her head. Very annoying indeed. I agree, let it

    New nurse and I had a breakdown at work

    Emergent replied to KB4848's topic in General Nursing

    I think your number one problem is sleep deprivation. Shame on your inconsiderate, 9-5 educator for interfering with your much needed sleep! Your home problems sound quite ordinary. But the sleep...

    So TIRED OF IT

    Emergent replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know how to respond to this ridiculous, overblown statement. It seems inevitable here that some self righteous person, after reading that someone had a negative opinion of a patient, tells...

    Help with the Strength & Weakness interview question.

    Emergent replied to Code Caffeine's topic in Nursing Career

    How about "I'm a perfectionist to a fault."? I hate these stupid questions. This one is particularly

    So TIRED OF IT

    Emergent replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Nursing

    That was a very long post, why didn't you mention that within it? There is no one formula for interacting with patients. I, personally, hate it when my healthcare providers give me canned responses...

    So TIRED OF IT

    Emergent replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Nursing

    I don't make a ton of eye contact with obnoxious patients. I have very little trouble. I'm known in my department for my uncanny ability to keep everyone calm and avoid confrontation. I can find...

    2 full-time jobs?

    Emergent replied to anna225's topic in General Nursing

    This is a sad travesty, the result of a serious ethical failure of a corrupt system of higher education in America. It preys on naive young people and gets them to sign on the dotted line. My...

    Do you ever get concerned about certain users on here?

    Emergent replied to Bakingismylife's topic in General Nursing

    I don't worry about anyone here. It's just a forum. There are a few people who have indicated from their posts that they have mental health challenges. I wish them good luck. I don't have the time...

    How do you deal with a rape threat from a patient?

    service dogs

    Emergent replied to Vtachy1's topic in General Nursing

    At my side job we have a doctor with a service dog. She is hearing impaired. The dog is trained to alert her for codes, phone calls, etc. It's a tiny place and the ER doc has a sleep room, works 24 or...

    Hot Cheetos are a public health menace

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I think the problem in the last 50 years is that the public from all socioeconomic classes has lost the ability to cook from scratch. Eating out has become the cultural norm. Back when I was broke in...

    Hot Cheetos are a public health menace

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, let's examine my points from the opening statement. There are several themes and subject matter I brought up. 1) The amusing irony of a woman with the primary complaint of abdominal pain having a...

    Hot Cheetos are a public health menace

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I had to look up the abbreviation SJW. There is a hilarious, albeit disturbing, plethora of over the top, confrontational SJWs. I thoroughly enjoyed the videos regarding a certain Hugh

    Hot Cheetos are a public health menace

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Well, there's a fun mix of respondents here. I do appreciate the ones who 'get it'. To the predictable "you're judgmental" remarks: Yep, just like everyone else, including you all. I wasn't born...

    When did being pregnant become a disability?

    Emergent replied to guest940422's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a nurse too. I work in a really cool ER, much cooler than other jobs. All my previous jobs were super cool and important too. I'm actually a legend in my own mind, I'm so

    mixing pain medications with a flush

    So TIRED OF IT

    Emergent replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, this is a societal problem. The slippery slope has turned into a landslide. Our population has lost core values of respect and courtesy. Every loser out there is ready to sue or threaten to...
