1. RN with medical marijuana card

   youenjoymyself replied to youenjoymyself's topic in General Nursing

   I wouldn't be taking CBD for pain, but for tumor reduction properties. I take bunch of homeopathic roots, oils, mushrooms, etc... since this tumor is currently inoperable. It's very unsettling to know you have a malignancy in your body and you ar...

   youenjoymyself replied to youenjoymyself's topic in General Nursing

   That is my intention. I am looking for something in case management/insurance side of things. This is really just food for thought. I did find this which looks promising to my plight and I can only hope PA yakes a similar stance: https://www.oplc.nh....

3. Prevalence of Christians in the field of nursing

   youenjoymyself replied to FSUNurse2b's topic in Spirituality

   Are you trying to say that Christians are better suited to be a nurse more so than Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Buddhists, etc...? Sounds like you spiritual horse is pretty high, and it's time you dismount.

   You're right. I am pretty sure I answered my own question, though. BON wouldn't ever know.

5. RN with medical marijuana card

   youenjoymyself replied to youenjoymyself's topic in General Nursing

   This is hypothetically speaking. Say I went to a Ma and Pa Kettle owned Home Health Agency, got to know them, informed them of my situation and the agreed to turn their heads of a THC reading in my urine. BON would never know. I mean...the whole MMJ ...

   ...and Spanked, that sucks. I don't think I would want any part of that. I am also in Pittsburgh. They make you go downtown for meetings and stuff? How long is that program anyway?

7. RN with medical marijuana card

   youenjoymyself replied to youenjoymyself's topic in General Nursing

   Well, honestly how would the BON know? They aren't the ones drug testing me. If my employer and I have an understanding about the cannabis oil and I have a MMJ card so no chance of any fines/jail is gone with Jonny Lawbuckle...How would they ever k...

   youenjoymyself replied to youenjoymyself's topic in General Nursing

   Well, I am in the market for a new job and MMJ has just been implemented here in PA on 1/1/18. If I am just upfront with my employer and it is acceptable to them, maybe I should be in the clear?

   youenjoymyself replied to fnallyRN's topic in General Nursing

   Your stress level will reduce as you gain experience. Give it a year. P.S. SSRI's are the devil. Start your taper now, and thank me later.

10. Getting away from bedside

    youenjoymyself replied to FDE123's topic in General Nursing

    I am crusing indeed.com the past week. Been on an oncology floor for 3 years. Getting burned out. Tired of getting pulled to other floors and getting the ****-show of patients that no one else wants... Looking for something non-acute, but not in a...

11. Pain scale

    youenjoymyself replied to nurseequestrian's topic in General Nursing

    I agree for the most part. If I have had the same patient for a day or two, get to know them, their personality and their pain/opiate tolerance, I do the exact same thing. What I have a hard time doing is, at night, when a patient wakes up from a de...

14. no random drug testing

    youenjoymyself replied to modernhippie_'s topic in Career Support

    Sure, because people in Maine and Canada don't drink alcohol either, right? Alcohol is much much worse for nurses than marijuana. FACT. I sure am glad I didn't grow up under a rock.
