   That's about what was done. Except they got rid of our secretaries so the nurses did it. Thanks for all the

2. Documenting Others Meds

   Mr Sacdiff replied to Mr Sacdiff's topic in Activism, Healthcare

4. does the PVT still work?

   Mr Sacdiff replied to Lab22's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   The trick worked for me. They changed it so you must submit a payment, but if you passed it will not charge you and it will give you the good message. If you fail, it will charge you. I had an old...

5. DaVita Village

   Mr Sacdiff replied to Islnd_RN's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

   Raises are 1.5%, but based on reviews, an FA can give some teammates less and others more. It's funny how many people complain about this, but don't go elsewhere. Most places aren't giving as good of...

8. When to use gloves

   Mr Sacdiff replied to Deenice's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   I'm pretty sure the only one you NEED gloves for is foot care, but I wore gloves for any skill. They cannot fail you if you wear gloves. :) And in the real world, I wear them all the time, because I...

9. Sitter breaks

   Mr Sacdiff replied to permanentnights's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   Sitting is typically pretty easy at my hospital. The aides cover the sitters for the most part. If you have a combative patient or one that refuses to remain in their bed or chair and is a fall...

10. Nurses working as CNAs

    Mr Sacdiff replied to nolanurse88's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Once in awhile (especially now, during "season" here in Florida) our RN's will fill in and do "Aid Work". Most of them do not mind, because they are simply helping with ADL's and such and can report...

11. Davita vs Fresenius

    Mr Sacdiff replied to ffliper27's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    So glad my wife is with Davita and she loves it. She has always gotten some type of bonus as a floor nurse, but now she's an FA and the bonuses are a huge help now that I'm in between careers. From...

    Mr Sacdiff replied to MichaelDoherty's topic in Male Nursing Students

13. Becoming an Endocrine Nurse

    Mr Sacdiff posted a topic in Diabetes, Endocrine Nursing

    I am currently in nursing school and have a bit to go, but I thought I'd ask this here. How do you go about getting into endocrine and more specifically pediatric endocrinology? I don't believe...

15. Cna instructor:diarrhea of the mouth

    Mr Sacdiff replied to deetrain's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    With this thread and the "taco" thread that the OP posted, I cannot take him seriously. Not to mention, if you're referring to a lady parts as a taco on a health professional site, I would call you...
