  1. Threat of needle sticks!!

    Gabie Baby replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    Gee, is there other stuff to use needles for?

  2. Nurse manager email - Opinions?

    Gabie Baby replied to RaggedyRN's topic in General Nursing

    And how often do you let them get by with requiring you to show up at work but not have to pay you? At the very least they should pay you travel time and gas

  3. Nurse manager email - Opinions?

    Gabie Baby replied to RaggedyRN's topic in General Nursing

    She should make the program accessible to Night shift and she should drop the sarcasm. Unprofessional. How's it going? Anyone

  4. Funny ending to a critical moment

    Gabie Baby replied to HyperRNRachel's topic in General Nursing

    I don't get it. As far as low blood sugar, nothing is better than refined sugar. Fruit sugar just doesn't work as fast or as well. Was he low glucose or opioid

  5. Gripe!

    Gabie Baby replied to CyndieRN2007's topic in General Nursing

    If you are miserable, time to take stock and try to get things changed where you are or else

  6. Wouldn't you consider this stealing???

  7. problems with my CGFNS application.. help me, im new here

    Gabie Baby replied to velvet.drops's topic in International Nursing

    Well, you should probably check with other nurses who are already here in The States and see how they handled it. Or is there someone back home who can guide

    Gabie Baby replied to SkateBetty's topic in General Nursing

    Old Rusty sounds like a real winner. I hope he is castrated. Actually, I think they guy has remarried and probably started a new family, Heaven help

  10. Andrea Yates R.N.

    Gabie Baby replied to SkateBetty's topic in General Nursing

    How can we say that someone who is sick is responsible for not taking their meds? Or responsible for anything, for that

  12. Press Gainey AARRGGHH

    Gabie Baby replied to susi_q's topic in Emergency

    That might not be such a bad idea. Some people might forget what you told them, might not see your badge (not everyone wears one, some are too small, pinned on too low or backwards, covered with...

  13. Press Gainey AARRGGHH

    Gabie Baby replied to susi_q's topic in Emergency

    Someone sitting in an office, totally removed from the front lines of Nursing, gets paid to come up with stuff like this. Said person has to justify his salary.

  14. Problem...Should I Go Back Or Not

    Gabie Baby replied to HannasMom's topic in General Nursing

    It's so hard to advise someone else, Hanna, but trust yourself to decide rightly. It's hard to leave a job you love, there's no guarantee that you'll land in a better place. And yet... I am asking...

  15. Problem...Should I Go Back Or Not

    Gabie Baby replied to HannasMom's topic in General Nursing

    They asked her to take ONLY a leave when she had, in fact, resigned. They did not ask her to take a leave to get rid of

  16. Stinky Co Worker

    Gabie Baby replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

    You really must be burned out. This person needs to matter-of-factly approach the coworker with a bottle of simethicone and a container of yogurt with active cultures in hand and say "These might help...

  17. retaliation or just coincidence?

    Gabie Baby replied to mtnmom's topic in General Nursing

    Why not give the boss a call and ask for some hours? Or better yet, go see him and ask for hours. Look around while you're there and see what the supply situation is like. Don't talk to anyone...

  18. Can someone please help me?

    Gabie Baby replied to cobie_84's topic in General Nursing

    I'm so sorry this all happened. You have learned an unfortunate lesson about human nature. Definitely keep on with school. Nurses abuse patients, nurses steal drugs and are addicts. They still...

  19. Bradley Birth instructor equates nursing with 'maid service'

    Gabie Baby replied to Merovingienne's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The woman is an idiot. What more can be said? We can always hope that she needs a nurse someday and can get only a "maid". And I'm not putting maids down. Maids are wonderful. But they are not...

  20. The business of being a CRNA

    Gabie Baby replied to krzysiu's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Perhaps you will find some info at a business management library section. Business management. you need to know about taxes, deductions, bookkeeping, and the like. More importantly, perhaps, you...

  21. I didn't get all this education to wipe behinds!

    Gabie Baby replied to SeekingNur's topic in General Nursing

    That might mean hands on care. It might also mean delegating some aspects of care when we are busy with tasks that require an RN or at least a licensed nurse to do them. Another aspect - what about...

  22. I didn't get all this education to wipe behinds!

    Gabie Baby replied to SeekingNur's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not above doing it. I don't like doing it, I gag and wretch and resent it. But I do it anyway. I remind myself that I might need it done someday. I agree that we do have a great many...

  23. Deadly Epidural

    Gabie Baby replied to WorkofHeart8's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yes, they should have. This was made worse, though, by having all of the family in there and by the inattentiveness of the staff throughout the night. It also sounds like she was allergic to the epi,...

  24. The patient's family members

    Gabie Baby replied to Foxfour's topic in General Nursing

    Shame on you for doing it, too, Chadash. Why would you accept that lousy care? You were not doing anyone a favor by not reporting

  25. The patient's family members

    Gabie Baby replied to Foxfour's topic in General Nursing

    Yes. You can and should expect to be safe on your job. You are not a punching bag. Do what you need to do to feel and be safe. I'm really glad you are thinking this
