    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    We were going to do this, but then my husband changed his mind. He says he doesn't want to have to go back & forth with them. He doesn't want to be bothered by their numerous texts and emails. Ah,...

    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, they're really agitating now. How can I steal something I didn't take and never had? I'm hoping others will read this and wary of companies like

    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    I just got this text: "It is considered a theft of services, even if you did not show to or complete your certification, to dispute any charge. Please note that disputing any certification charge...

    Biden loves nurses...awkward

    Kitiger replied to Nurse Beth's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    If he is trying to say that he appreciates nurses, there are much better ways to communicate this. I don't need to whisper and "breathe on" a patient in order to have a human connection. In...

    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    I told them that I would not be coming in for the class. The class was today. This is what they sent me by text: "You have been marked as a no-show for your session today. You will remain not...

    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    I plan to do a Red Cross course that is all classroom (no part is on-line). My company accepts both AHA and Red Cross. I think the money I paid to cpraedfirstaid.org is gone, although we will...

    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    Good advice; we are doing this. I didn't realize that it wasn't an AHA certification until I called the American Heart Association and they said they didn't recognize this website. By "blended...

    Nobody rides the bus?! What jobs can I do that don't involve driving?

    Kitiger replied to uniteddemclub's topic in General Nursing

    The buses in my city do not run at night, and - while most of the city is covered during peak hours - the slower hours don't reach all potential riders. The client that I care for is in the next...

    Baby Boomers and Hepatitis C: High-Risk Group with Low Rate of Testing

    Kitiger replied to Barb S's topic in General Nursing

    Hepatitis C is blood-borne. While I am a Boomer, I have never done drugs, I'm a teetotaler, I have never had a blood transfusion. I didn't have surgery of any kind until the late 1980s. To my...

    That's what I'm afraid of. I don't want to throw good money after bad. I thought maybe some of you might have heard of this

    CPR Fraud?

    Kitiger replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    My red flags are: 1) When I tried to pay by credit card, the card wouldn't go through at first. But when my husband tried the next morning, it went through. (I forgot to mention this in my first...

    Nocturnal Muscle Cramps

    Kitiger replied to Danielle BSN's topic in Patient Education

    Could it be that massaging any foam into the muscle would help as much as the relief I get from Theraworx? I've tried massaging with Eucerine Cream - that I use regularly for my dry skin on my hands -...

    Nocturnal Muscle Cramps

    Kitiger replied to Danielle BSN's topic in Patient Education

    The OP was talking about patients. While I know that Theraworx is an OTC med, we still need a physician's order to use it on our patients. At least, that is true in home care. Theraworx has...

    Nocturnal Muscle Cramps

    Kitiger replied to Danielle BSN's topic in Patient Education

    With a doctor's order, Theraworx (topical magnesium) massaged into the muscle can help a great deal. Massage should be perpendicular to the muscle fibers. And pay attention to
