    Boooo! That's awful. Sorry, Momma_D. I'm gonna have to work too. We'll make it,

  2. lonestar nursing 2014 hopeful

    duckydot28 replied to dreksterrr's topic in Texas Nursing

    Quit my wonderful job of two years last month, but I'm trying to find another one with fewer hours. I may not have as much time, but I still need gas money, so I've still gotta work for this semester...

  5. baby friendly questions

    duckydot28 replied to Rhee's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The baby isn't the only one who needs care. Momma does too. And all that stuff about how babies shouldn't be separated from their mothers during the first few days is overblown. We went over this in...

  6. What was your hardest class and how did you study for it?

    duckydot28 replied to VAgirl247's topic in General Students

    Well, pre-nursing program, it was A&P, of course! It was also by far the most enjoyable and engaging, though. I formed a study group on day 1 and committed to studying with them after every class...

  7. Stereotyping Male Nurses

    duckydot28 replied to lvansick's topic in Male Nursing Students

    That's old gender roles for ya. Women can't be strong/logical, and men can't be caring/non-violent. It's wrong, and every day we must wage war against those ideas.

  8. classmate insists on posting her opinion

    duckydot28 replied to adnstudent44's topic in General Students

    But as a nurse, she will not be allowed to just do whatever she thinks is best for patients in terms of injecting them with urine instead of vaccines. She will have to follow the standard of care....

  9. Homeless Patients: Considerations

    duckydot28 replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Are doctors really in that much of a bubble so that they don't even think about these possibilities? I've heard of them being aloof and all, but I've always thought (read: hoped) that most of that is...

  10. Affordable Care Act Users Guide for Nurses

    duckydot28 replied to Jb4564's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Politics aside, I really do like that people--especially children--with pre-existing conditions can get coverage now. From a logical and compassionate point of view, it seems like a no-brainer...from...

  13. Night Shift Nursing Education and Effects on Job Satisfaction

    duckydot28 replied to liebling5's topic in General Nursing

    This is excellent information. Hopefully hospitals and schools will take notice of studies like these. Circadian rhythms are not to be trifled with, and disruption has very real and significant...

    duckydot28 replied to dreksterrr's topic in Texas Nursing

    I've been lurking for months. Finally joined. I'll be in the morning schedule at Cy-Fair. I absolutely agree with Warren--this has been a headache-inducing, dramatic journey, and we're not even at Day...
